The destination for the SimPilot Forum's ninth Flight Rally is Norfolk International Airport in Norfolk, Virginia USA!
Since Penn Central flew its first flight into the clouds over Norfolk in April
1938, Norfolk has boasted one of the fastest growing airports in one of the
fastest growing metropolitan areas in the country. After Penn Central's maiden
flight in 1938, the first terminal was erected and dedicated in March of 1940.
The establishment of the Norfolk Port & Industrial Authority (now Norfolk Airport Authority) followed on July 1, 1948 and the Airport continued to flourish and expand. In 1968, the name was changed to Norfolk Regional Airport. The present terminal building commenced operations in January 1974, and in January 1976 the name was changed officially to Norfolk International Airport.
Norfolk International Airport, serving the Greater Hampton Roads area as well as parts of North Carolina, operates over 200 inbound and outbound flights daily to hundreds of major cities throughout the United States. Both cargo and passenger activity have grown dramatically in recent years since airline deregulation became effective in 1978.
There is scenery for this airport in Microsoft's "Flight Simulator" version 5.0 to 2002, subLogic's "Flight" and "Flight Light", Nomissoft's "Airline Simulator 2", as well as subLogic's "Scenery Disk 7" and "USA East" scenery packs which can be used with Microsoft's "Flight Simulator" 4.0b and subLogic's "Airline Transport Pilot".
