Where do I find the Orbx FREEWARE downloads?

Hi,

It's most likely included with the latest freeware global airport pack. There is one for North and South America and one for Europe. They are updated regularly to include more freeware airports. These airports don't generally include custom buildings like the payware and other single freeware titles, but they are upgraded pretty well using ORBX libraries. I think some may have some custom buildings and even some PR, but generally they are just made over with ORBX library objects, including people flow. They are 200% better than default and well worth installing.

Search the freeware page for the global airport packs:

Installed... Leaving Homer for King Salmon and then the Aleutian run all in my beloved An-2... I could not find the forest for the trees ;)

EDIT: Sorry....disregard below, since you've already got it sorted out!

Hi Carl,
As Scott mentioned, King Salmon (PAKN) is contained in the North American freeware airport download from the following link. It's not a stand-alone airport, but it's bundled in with other freeware offerings in an .exe file. Just download and run the file and it'll self-install into your FSX.

Also, been a while since I did a fresh install of Orbx freeware, but I recall that you also need to install their freeware ORBX libraries as well. They're available from the following link.

Did update the library as well, but I run Orbx Central 2 weekly now (after the full move to 2).....

Best- C
