Aerosoft - 29 Palms Skiathos for P3D V4/V5

Note: for P3D V3.4+/V4/V5 only.

The name "Skiathos" is derived from "skia" (Greek for "shadow") and is named after the shadows of the countless trees covering the island of Skiathos. Skiathos v1.5 by 29Palms Scenery Design is now taking you to the Northern Sporades of Greece in Lockheed Martin's Prepar3D.

The airport of the island is considered to be the "Greek St. Maarten" because of its spectacular approach. The runway reaches the surrounding sea on both its ends and is in total only 1628m long. Bigger aircraft like a Boeing 757-200 are forced to perform low approaches. Although there are plenty of signs warning about the danger of the jetblast of starting airplanes, some people still prefer to remain there for the "buzz" of the jet engines blast.

The entire island has been realistically recreated based on many references from the real island. There are over 250.000 custom-made and hand-placed Autogen-objects covering over 100 km2 of high-resolution satellite imagery(0.3-05 m/px). In addition there are many animations such as swarms of seagulls, sound effects and high-resolution textures.

You may fly low over the tourists, visit the final approach or go to discover the island - this scenery offers everything in an extraordinary level of detail.

Skiathos v1.5 is the further development of Skiathos X and now fully compatible with Prepar3D V3/V4/V5
