Excerpt from Threshold

iniBuilds has, in the past week, announced their latest airport project, Malta International Airport (LMML), for Microsoft Flight Simulator 2024.

Situated on the island nation of Malta, the international airport is the country’s only commerical airport, with many routes to Europe, North Africa and the Middle East, according to iniBuilds’ website.

Notably, Emirates’ EK109/EK110 route serves the island, connecting Dubai with Malta via a stop in Larnaca, Greece, making for a unique itinerary.

iniBuilds says their rendition has been created with the help of real-world references, thanks to an iniBuilds team member travelling to Malta to conduct on-site research, gathering photographs and videos from the real airport.

iniBuilds says this extra reference imagery helps them properly implement smaller details not covered by publicly available imagery, such as interiors and passenger areas, apron equipment, signage, lighting, materials, and others.

They say particular attention was paid to Malta’s unique building composition, a blend of modern terminal facilities and historic architecture.

Since the on-site survey, iniBuilds has been working “across every area of the airport”, including recreating terminal exteriors and interiors, ground textures, signage, dynamic lighting and airport clutter, all optimised for performance.

At this stage of development, iniBuilds notes the following features:

Scenery Features

Hand-crafted ground textures with bespoke runway, taxiway and apron materials

Highly detailed terminal interiors and exterior modelling

True-to-life landside recreation with custom vegetation, decals and infrastructure

Accurately modelled dynamic airport lighting

Official GSX profile included

Optimised LODs throughout the scenery for balanced performance

No release date or pricing was specified in the announcement, but more details are expected “very soon”.
