MK-Studios, then BMWorld & AmSim Release Versions of CYUL for MSFS

Montreal's Trudeau International Airport (CYUL) became a popular place in flight simulation this week. On July 31, MK-Studios released their version of CYUL. Three days later, we saw a separate rendition of CYUL, this one from BMWorld & AmSim.

 

We also found out that FlyTampa (FSA Captains save 10%) recently canceled their CYUL project because the space was getting a "little too crowded" when they shared updated plans for EHAM and KBOS.

Known for their painstakingly detailed and realistic UK airfields like Compton Abbas, Damyns Hall, or Solent Airfield, just to name a few, the Burning Blue team has now veered off their regular path and into a unique territory – the reproduction of 50 VOR ground stations scattered across the British Isles.
