Thank you!Orbx would like to thank you for purchasing FTX LOWI Innsbruck International Airport.A destination that needs no introduction, Innsbruck is one of the iconic airports of the world, with a jawdropping backdrop, heart-stopping approaches, and a location smack dab in the heart of Europe, only ashort flight away to major German, Swiss, Italian and Austrian mega-hubs. Marking his first foray intoEuropean designations, developer Jarrad Marshall's fourteenth airport is by far his most ambitious projectyet. In addition to the airport, an exhaustive coverage area is included (the largest PR area of any ORBXairport to date), many helicopter landing areas, and over 160 detailed landmarks and points of interest. Farbeyond the city, explore the peaks of Karwendel, Stubai and Tux Alps, the picturesque Inn, Wipp and StubaiValleys, a portion of the historic Brenner Pass and even Germany's tallest mountain, Zugspitze. Over adozen towns and villages dot the Tyrolian landscape, each carefully reproduced with colour-blendedscenery and highly-detailed autogen. Keep an eye out for visual cues useful to pilots of all stripes; animatedtrains, prominent structures (including notable church spires along the flightpath), custom-modelledbridges, hazardous power lines and notable buildings are all lovingly recreated.Innsbruck is the largest city in Western Austria; located in the heart of the intersection of the Inn and Wippvalleys, the city is unofficially known as the Capital of the Alps. A major winter sports destination, the cityhas hosted several Winter Olympics; evidence of which can be found dotted around the city in the form ofstadiums, ski facilities and institutions. Aside from this, Innsbruck is a major university city; campuses arelocated across the metro area, including notable locations adjacent to the airport, and of course, thefamous University Hospital Heliport (LOIU). Be sure to also keep an eye out for the distinctive Tyroleanarchitecture to both churches and major landmarks alike.Innsbruck International Airport itself is Austria's third largest, with major carriers from across Europeserving the popular tourist destination. A true multi-use airport in every sense, Innsbruck caters for aircraftfrom gliders and helicopters through to Boeing 767's (we won't count the one-off appearance of an A330!).In addition to the busy international terminal, a vibrant general aviation terminal (currently undergoingredevelopment) and heavy maintenance facilities, Innsbruck is home several gliding clubs and flyingschools. The adjacent heliport - Innsbruck Air Rescue (LOJO) - is a major base for both Rescue and FederalPolice services, both utilising EC135 aircraft. Almost all virtual pilots will be aware of the unusual departureand approach procedures for the airport - one of the very best APX designers in the business has come onboard to ensure this is replicated as close to the real world as possible. Lighting, navaids, hazard lighting it's all included and closely matched to real-world specifications.ORBX have endeavoured to capture the atmosphere and palette of the beautiful Tyrol region, whilst alsospending a huge amount of effort on the "small details". Even so, a huge effort has gone into optimising thisscenery in anticipation of you flying your favourite resource-heavy airliner - the scenery has beenextensively tested under hundreds of system/aircraft/scenery combinations. Whether you are a by-thebook airline captain, bizjet guru, helicopter rescue pilot, casual general aviation flyer or even slow-and-silentglider pilot, ORBX FTX Innsbruck will be the scenery for your all your simming adventures. A great deal oflove, passion and effort has gone into this project; we genuinely hope you enjoy this scenery as much as weenjoyed making it!Orbx FTX LOWI Innsbruck User Guide3

APX guru Graham Ecclestonhas pushed the boundaries with his LOWI APX work, and has managed to overcome somelimitations. As such, he set up custom curved approaches to direct AI traffic through thevalleys at each end of the LOWI runway. This will enable AI aircraft to fly in a curved track andavoid the surrounding mountains when approaching the runway end. Unfortunately though,there is no way to produce curved departures, so some aircraft may run into issues with terrainafter departure, depending on individual destinations and automated routing. This is alimitation of the FSX/P3D AI engine, and everything has been done to mitigate this fromhappening.The custom curved approaches are compatible with major AI packages, so long as the aircraftplans are notated as IFR (almost all Airline traffic routes are). VFR flightplans will use defaultcircuit/approach patterns.Orbx FTX LOWI Innsbruck User Guide9
The LOWI Control PanelThe LOWI Control Panel can be accessed from the main FTX Central interface by clicking theConfigure button.The Control Panel will enable you to disable or enable certain scenery features of the airport toallow it to perform in accordance with the PC hardware you have. By default, all scenery optionsare enabled by the installer. If you have a high end PC, enable all the CP options. For low to midrange PCs it is recommended to try disabling some settings.Orbx FTX LOWI Innsbruck User Guide10
The LOWI Control Panel (cont.)Below are descriptions of some main control panel options:Primary Night Lighting: Describes all runway edge, centreline, taxiway and regular approachlighting. Set to night-time (including dawn/dusk) by default, but option possible for daylight(inclement weather) operations."Rabbit" Extended Approach Lighting: LOWI has a unique "rabbit" extended strobe lightingsystem for RWY28, which extends 5km beyond the runway threshold, through the centre of thecity. This is used as an additional landing aid for pilots during low-visibility conditions, in real lifeit is activated (day or night) at the discretion of Air Traffic Control. By default, our version of LOWIhas it activated at night only, however you can also choose day-and-night ops, or deactivate therabbit altogether.Hold-Short Stop-Bar Lights: At each taxiway/runway threshold, you will find stop-bar lights,which will display red. Once your user aircraft is close enough to the threshold (awaiting runwayclearance), the lights will automatically change to green. In real life, these are controlled by ATC,however this is the closest that we can replicate using ObjectFlow technology!Orbx FTX LOWI Innsbruck User Guide11
Quick Reference Simulator SettingsThe table below lists in a handy reference the minimum recommended settings required in yoursimulator to enjoy LOWI the way Orbx designed it. These settings will run well on most PCs andtake particular advantage of the custom mesh and photoreal imagery used in the scenery area.If you use the settings below you will be guaranteed the highest fidelity experience and the bestbalanced performance.Important Information for FSX (Boxed Edition) users:Building texture resolution:Some priority buildings at Innsbruck use 2048x2048 resolution textures. To run the textures at 2048, itis important that you make the following changes to your fsx.cfg:TEXTURE MAX LOAD 2048This is not done automatically in FSX Boxed Edition, and will need to be edited by the user toensure the textures display as desired.For FSX: Steam Edition and P3D users, this texture resolution can be changed via the GlobalTexture Resolution slider in your scenery settings.SettingValueWhy?Level of detail radiusLargeReduces blurring of textures.Global texture resolutionMaxDisplays photoreal textures best.Mesh complexity100Better terrain definition.Mesh resolution5m5 m is required for LOWITexture resolution7 cmSharpest roads and freeways.Scenery complexityExtremely DenseHow Orbx designed FTX LOWI.Autogen densityNormalBest FPS vs detail.GA AI traffic16-50%Recommended for this scenery.Road vehicle traffic16%No need to set higher for FTX.Orbx FTX LOWI Innsbruck User Guide12
