Cork Airport (Irish: Aerfort Chorcaí, IATA: ORK, ICAO: EICK) is the second-largest of the three principal international airports in the Republic of Ireland, after Dublin and ahead of Shannon. It is located 6.5 km (4.0 mi) south of Cork city in an area known as Farmers Cross.
Cork is the state's second-busiest airport in terms of passenger numbers, after Dublin, and fourth busiest on the island of Ireland, after Dublin, Belfast International and Belfast City. (see Wikipedia)
Installation-Informations:
- The airfield is situated on a slope and is slightly sloping and uneven.
- The artificial runways can be hidden, which is often useful for grass runways and/or for all runways if high-resolution photos of the airfield are available. It is sufficient to rename the affected runway files, e.g.:
- heli1_obj.tmb__OFF
- rap1316m47m_rwy.tmb__OFF
- rap2162m47m_rwy.tmb__OFF
Navigation-Informations:
- The navigation charts (aerodrom, IFR and VFR) can be downloaded from this OpenNav page:

FSCloudPort does not support crossing runways. Runways with a strikethrough below are excluded from the model but are still functional in the navigation screen.
How to change which runways are excluded.After download/unzip your EICK folder will contain a file EICK.tsc. Edit this in notepad and the section about runways is clearly documented. You'll see which runways cross which and the lines starting // are used to exclude runways from display. Change the lines starting // to exclude different runways as you prefer.
