It was hinted a few weeks ago that iniBuilds was working on Innsbruck Airport (LOWI) for Microsoft Flight Simulator, and now it’s confirmed—you can purchase and download it.
Innsbruck Airport, set in the Austrian Alps, is a vital hub for the Tyrol region and a popular destination in winter due to its proximity to ski resorts. The airport sees traffic from across Europe and presents a unique challenge to pilots because of its complex approach, mountainous terrain, and unpredictable weather, making it a thrilling spot for flight sim enthusiasts.
The iniBuilds version of Innsbruck is designed to be the most detailed rendition of the airport for any flight simulator. It includes custom textures, both landside and airside scenery objects, and intricate details like custom ground decals, signs, vegetation, and barriers. The layout and ground markings are fully updated, and static aircraft populate the airport to enhance realism.
Beyond the main airport area, iniBuilds has added numerous custom points of interest, such as the Bergisel Ski Jump, Christophorus heliport, Innsbruck University Hospital with its helipad, and the Tivoli Stadion & Arena, creating a highly immersive visual experience on approach. The airport has been optimized for performance, and additional support through the iniManager allows for further customization.
iniBuilds’ Innsbruck Airport is available in their store for £14.99 (excluding taxes). It’s currently compatible with Microsoft Flight Simulator 2020, with a free update planned for Microsoft Flight Simulator 2024, in line with iniBuilds’ upgrade policy: “As with all scenery products being released up until the launch of Microsoft Flight Simulator 2024, we’ll be providing a free upgrade to the 2024 version of the product.”
