Milan-Malpensa Airport (LIMC/MXP), Italy’s second-largest international airport, has been brought to life in Microsoft Flight Simulator 2020 with Aerosoft’s latest release. Handling over 21 million passengers in 2022, this bustling hub is located 30 miles northwest of Milan and serves as a critical gateway to Europe, Asia, North America, and Africa. With its three terminals and extensive cargo operations, Malpensa plays a pivotal role in Italian aviation, processing approximately 500,000 tons of freight annually.
Aerosoft's rendition of Milan-Malpensa Airport features a precise recreation of the airport with its 2024 layout, showcasing intricately detailed terminal buildings complete with visible interiors from the airside. Custom aerial imagery enhances the realism of the surrounding area, while the airport environment comes alive with dynamic apron vehicle traffic and animated terminal trains. Ground-level fidelity is further emphasized through accurate terrain elevation and runway profiles. Additionally, the scenery is fully compatible with Aerosoft’s VDGS module, which incorporates Safedock T-1 systems for precise gate parking. Airline-specific parking assignments ensure a seamless integration with AI traffic.
