SuperSonic has released a detailed rendition of Caen Carpiquet Airport (LFRK) for Microsoft Flight Simulator, which brings one of Normandy’s key regional airports to life with custom buildings, detailed ground layouts, and realistic surroundings. Located just six kilometers west of Caen, the airport serves as a gateway to France’s historic Normandy region and handles both domestic scheduled flights and general aviation traffic.
Although modest in size, Caen Carpiquet Airport plays an important role in connecting the region to several southern French destinations. It is primarily served by Air France Hop and Volotea, with regular flights to Ajaccio, Calvi, Figari, Nice, Bastia, Lyon, Marseille, and Montpellier. The airport’s mix of commercial and GA operations makes it a versatile and interesting hub for simulator pilots exploring regional France.
SuperSonic’s scenery aims to replicate the airport with precision. The add-on includes a custom aerial image covering the airport area and a ground layout based on Navigraph charts, ensuring accurate taxiways and stands. Both the terminal and control tower buildings are modeled in high detail, with fully realized interiors that enhance immersion during ground operations. The landsides, car parks, and nearby industrial areas are also handcrafted, giving the scenery a coherent and authentic appearance when viewed from any angle.
Caen Carpiquet Airport serves as a fitting addition to the growing collection of French regional airports available for Microsoft Flight Simulator. You can purchase SuperSonic’s LFRK – Caen Carpiquet Airport ➡️ directly from Flightsim.to.
