Introducing
Aviation Sim Design
My name is Dennis Passolt, and I am the founder and developer behind Aviation Sim Design.
For over 20 years, I have been developing scenery for flight simulators — starting purely from a passion for virtual aviation, and today operating as an independent developer label.
​
My first projects date back to the era of Microsoft Flight Simulator 2004. At that time, my focus was primarily on helicopter bases and hospitals, creating realistic mission environments for rotary-wing operations. One of my largest and longest-running projects was Helipack X, which was continuously expanded over many years and served as a core scenery foundation for a dedicated virtual community.
​
As flight simulation platforms evolved, so did my own development focus. Today, I concentrate on creating detailed regional airports in Germany, with authenticity, clean implementation, and meticulous attention to detail at the forefront of every project. In the future, I also plan to expand my portfolio to include international airports.
​
Since 2022, I have been distributing my add-ons through various marketplace platforms. With the launch of my own website, I have taken the next step — offering my products directly and building a closer connection with the community.
​
Aviation Sim Design is an independent developer label driven by passion — built on years of experience, enthusiasm for virtual aviation, and the commitment to delivering high-quality scenery for simulation enthusiasts.

I already owned a payware Emden airport from another developer but this is of really high quality. The buildings and (ground) textures are really good and look realistic. The animations on and around the airport are something you don't see often in any airport. Even the ditches look good in this version. Owning a lot of payware airport i can say this is one of the best smaller airports available. Looking forward to anything this developer will bring in the future.

Thank you, very nice. I like the level of detail on the airfield and the winch tower. Also, very recognizable landscape, coming from your flat neighbor country (Netherlands). And my Chinook almost fits in the hangar.

My old hometown, beautifully presented. Ideal for my needs - GA VFR. Greetings to all Emden residents!

An absolute masterpiece! This scenery not only features very accurate modeling and texturing, it also includes features that only very few developers include: Custom animated vehicles, custom approach lights, dynamic changes based on the environment, static aircraft matching the airport, and also important for immersion; No flat vegetation anywhere. The surroundings have been carefully enhanced for an even better feel of immersion.
Also of note; I gave feedback on some ground textures that I felt were not up to standard, requiring a rather significant effort to change. Nevertheless 2 days later the job was done, customer service at its best!
With details everywhere, to the last hangar, this is the ultimate General Aviation airport for MSFS. And with it featuring IFR procedures and a long runway, this will be my new flight training hub from now on! What better way to sharpen your skills than doing it in an art piece like this one. GA Gold Standard in MSFS.
