We are thrilled to officially announce the release of Ancona Airport (LIPY)!
Adapting Italy’s vital Marche gateway into the simulator has been an incredible journey. Designed from the ground up in collaboration with Barelli MSFS Addons, this project brings authentic Italian coastal aviation to life with high-definition PBR texturing, custom airfield clutter, and seamless performance optimization.
Welcome to Marche Airport
Located on the Adriatic coast, Ancona Airport serves as a major hub for regional commercial flights, general aviation, and cargo transport. Whether you are flying short-haul European airline routes, cargo runs, or island-hopping along the coast, Ancona offers the perfect base for your operations.
Key Features:
- Bespoke PBR Texturing: Ultra-detailed terminal structures, hangars, and surrounding airport infrastructure.
- Custom Ground Polygons: Realistic runway, taxiway, and apron weathering with authentic line markings and wear patterns.
- Dynamic Engine Integration: Full support for native weather effects, dynamic reflections, and ambient night illumination.
- Custom Airfield Clutter: Accurately placed ground service equipment, baggage carts, and local assets to immerse you from startup to shutdown.
- Framerate Friendly: Carefully optimized LODs and texture budgets to ensure smooth performance in complex airliner cockpits.
