DAAT Aguenar Airport

for Microsoft Flight Simulator

Aguenar Airport (DAAT), also known as Tamanrasset Airport or Hadj Bey Akhamok Airport, is a mixed-use civilian and military airport in southern Algeria near the city of Tamanrasset. The surrounding region features beautiful desert and mountain landscapes and its location in the middle of the Sahara makes it an excellent stopover during any trip across Africa.

This Microsoft Flight Simulator 2020 rendition was created based on the few available photos and satellite imagery. It features three bespoke terminal and tower buildings that were recently constructed or renovated: the main passenger terminal, the control tower, and the small building in between. Adjacent to the airport is an Algerian military base where many buildings were enhanced or added along with carefully edited terrain textures. Enhanced roads, fencing around the entire airport perimeter, and hundreds of objects provide a rich backdrop during takeoffs, landings, or sightseeing flights. Custom objects including realistic Algerian Air Force aircraft are included for an authentic feel. A nearby solar plant and an ancient tomb POI enhance the region.

The airport itself features two ILS, all ground services, realistic runways and taxi lines based on satellite imagery, revamped gate numbering, taxi lighting, and taxi signs.
