About This File

Rio de Janeiro–Antonio Carlos Jobim International Airport (IATA: GIGICAO: SBGL), popularly known by its original name Galeão International Airport, is the main airport serving Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. It is the country's second-busiest international airport.[4] It is named after Praia do Galeão (Galleon Beach), located in front of the original passenger terminal (the present passenger terminal of the Brazilian Air Force) and where in 1663 the galleon Padre Eterno was built;[5][6] and since January 5, 1999 also after the Brazilian musician Antonio Carlos Jobim.[7] Galeão Airport is explicitly mentioned in his composition Samba do avião. It is the largest airport site in terms of area in Brazil.

Since August 12, 2014[8] it has been operated by the concessionary Rio Galeão,[9] a consortium formed by the Brazilian investor Odebrecht and Changi Airport Group, with a minority participation of the government owned company Infraero, the previous operator.[10] The new concessionary has been using the brand name RIOgaleão – Aeroporto Internacional Tom Jobim.[11]

Some of its facilities are shared with the Galeão Air Force Base of the Brazilian Air Force.

The most amazing freeware airport out there! Easy on performance, fully immersive and beautifully looking! I am happily paying for this product, and I encourage every happy customer to donate.

This is very nice and works for me in XP11 with Vulkan rendering.  Thanks very much for yet another Brazilian airport, Axmiha.  We appreciate how much work goes into each one.

This airport is amazing! Better than the default from the game! This SHOULD be on the next update on X-Plane 11 11.27!

Sensacional! Nível de payware. Aliás, acabei preferindo este daqui do que a versão 2.0, porque apesar de perder as pontes para rwy 10/28 do 2.0, posso deixar flat o aeroporto na 0.5 (adicionando "1302 flatten 1" no apt.dat), sem ter a montanha russa na 15/33 que aparece com o mesh do Rossicev que uso junto com o SBRJ do Ruifo. O ideal seria juntar a mesh do 2.0 (yyy_SBGL_mesh), na área do SBGL, com a do Rossicev (zzz_MeshRio). Enquanto não dá, essa versão aqui manda muito bem.

Awesome! Payware level. Besides, I prefer this one than the 2.0 version, even if I lose the bridges to the rwy 10/28 of the 2.0 version since I can flatten this 0.5 version by adding "1302 flatten 1" in the apt.dat without having the rollercoster in rwy 15/33 with the Rossicev's Rio mesh that I use together with Ruifo's SBRJ. Ideally, the best scenario would be to join the 2.0 mesh (yyy_SBGL_mesh) only in the SBGL area and use the Rossicev (zzz_MeshRio) with the rest of Rio region. Even if it not possible, this version, even if it not the ultimate one, is already fantastic.
