KAUS_P3Dv5_4

This is a complete redesign due to multiple airport infrastructure updates / changes since my earlier release for P3Dv4, according to the latest GoogleEarth details, of the Austin–Bergstrom International Airport or ABIA (IATA: AUS, ICAO: KAUS, FAA LID: AUS, formerly BSM). It is a Class C international airport located in Austin, Texas, United States (the capital of Texas), and serving the Greater Austin metropolitan area.
Located about 5 miles (8 km) southeast of Downtown Austin, it covers 4,242 acres and has two runways and three helipads. It is on the site of what was originally, Bergstrom Air Force Base.
The airport and Air Force base were named after Captain John August Earl Bergstrom, an officer who served with the 19th Bombardment Group.
The airport is the third busiest in Texas, after Dallas/Fort Worth and Houston–Intercontinental, as well as the 27th busiest airport in the United States by passenger traffic. As of 2023, there are more than 550 arrivals and departures on the typical weekday to 97 destinations in North America and Europe.
