The name Jerez goes back to the Phoenician Xera, Sèrès, later Romanized under the name of Ceret; the location of this settlement, however, remains unknown.
The classical Latin name of Asta Regia, unrelated to the present name, referred to an ancient city now found within Mesas de Asta, a rural district approximately 11 km (6.84 mi) from the center of Jerez.
The current Spanish name came by way of the Arabic name شريش Sherīsh. In former times, during the Muslim period in Iberia, it was called Xerez or Xerés (pronounced in Old Spanish). The name of the famous fortified wine, sherry, which originated here (although some argue that it originated in Shiraz, Persia), represents an adaptation of the city's Arabic name, Sherish. Frontera refers to a Spanish frontier, located on the border between the Moorish and Christian regions of Spain during the 13th century, a regular host to skirmishes and clashes between the two regions. Over two centuries later, after the Castilian conquest of Granada in 1492, Xerez definitively lost its status as a frontier city, but did not lose that designation.
After the Kingdom of Castile took Jerez on October 9, 1264, following the name given by the Muslims to the city in the period known as the Reconquista, the city was then called Xerez in medieval Castilian, transcribing the consonant (like the English sh) with the letter , as was the rule at the time. Thus the name was pronounced "Shereth", similar to the Moorish Arabic "Sherish". In the 16th century, the consonant changed into the consonant , with the corresponding spelling of Jerez.
The old spelling "Xerez" as the name given to the city survived in several foreign languages until very recently, and today continues to influence the name given to sherry: Portuguese Xerez , Catalan Xerès , English sherry , French Xérès . The city's main football team continues to use the old spelling, Xerez.
Airport
El Aeropuerto de Jerez, also known as Aeropuerto de La Parra, is the main airport in the province of Cádiz. It is located 8 km (5 mi) north of the city centre and is connected to the city by train and bus.
It was built in 1937, during the Spanish Civil War by the Nationalists in order to transport soldiers from Africa to Spain. The airport was open to civil traffic in 1992. It is the third most important airport in Andalucia after Malaga and Seville.

Extract all 3 Zip folders to the community folder.
The scenario comprises 3 parts, for some reason it's giving an error when joining the 3 parts only in a single folder. I will try to resolve this situation and when it is resolved I will update the city. Follow me to get notified if you plan to have only one city folder. Hug

Hola, actualmente soy iniciado en la instalación de mods de Flight Simulator 2020, y me pregunto ¿ qué sucedería si instalo éste mod de aspecto de Jerez de la frontera no siendo compatible con la Sim update 9 ? Gracias, espero alguna respuesta que me pueda resolver mis dudas respecto a esto, dado que suelo ver muchos mods muy buenos, que no son actualmente compatibles con la Sim Update 9.

El mod es compatible con la actualización 9, y lo que te cambiará es toda la ciudad en fotogrametría en la ciudad de Jerez, tendrás los edificios que tienes en la vida real en el simulador.

Could it be possible to have also "El Puerto de Santa María"?

Thanks for your feedback. Yes, it is an idea I had in mind , the photogrammetry of Porto and Santa Maria is not complete, but the most important thing is there. Cities I know very well, through MotoGP races and great nights in Santa Maria.
Meanwhile, I'm finishing another project from Portugal, I'll be able to do this one next-
