EFHK - Helsinki Airport Updated to Version 1.7
Helsinki Airport (EFHK/HEL), Finland’s busiest airport and a crucial hub for international air traffic, has just received a update for Microsoft Flight Simulator. With nearly 22 million passengers passing through in 2019, Helsinki Airport is vital for both business and leisure travelers in Northern Europe. Epixeri's Helsinki Airport scenery includes custom-made terminal buildings for both T1 and T2, featuring detailed extensions and a new main entrance. With the latest update, the non-Schengen terminal has been entirely reworked and now includes interior details. Version 1.7 also includes new features like coordinate signs at all gates and VDGS datalink functionality.
Additionally, new ramps (404B and 407B) have been introduced, along with updated VDGS models, and ground textures for runways and gates have been enhanced. Pilots are encouraged to pair this scenery with the VDGS system from Nool Aerosystems, which is essential for full functionality, as well as the official GSX profile tailored to this version. For the best experience, you should also ensure they have downloaded World Update V: Nordics from the Marketplace, which provides a broader context for flying in the region.
To install the update, simply should remove any older versions from your community folder, unzip the new version, and place it in the appropriate directory. As always, feedback and suggestions are welcome to help improve future versions.

Version 1.7 is now available on Flightsim.to.
