Antarctica Airfields/Airports

Can we please add the Antarctic Airfields and Bases to sim brief for flight planning. Summing is coming up in the southern hemisphere and traffic in the real world with be picking up down there. Even Norse Atlantic Airways announced that they’re planning to land a 787 at Troll Airfield (ENOE/AT27). The first 787 in Antarctica. Would it be possible to add the airfields and such to the simbrief planner?

Question I have is WHEN? This request has been on the minds and documented here for quite sometime now. I have not yet searched xPlane12 for any airports yet on the remote continent. Most of which that may exist are ‘Ice field’ Runways with quansit huts for shelters - if anything exists at all. I may not be unaware of the ‘Bigger Picture’ but really would enjoy flightplanning to this region. :thinking::man_shrugging:

Hi, Troll Airfield (ENOE) was added in cycle 2410 a few months ago. It should be available in our data sets and apps, however I’m not sure about simulators since in general our data cannot update the physical scenery in the sim.

Best regards,
