The airport was recreated in MSFS following an on-site survey and based on a 2023 layout, including new construction areas. According to the developer, advanced optimisation techniques in the latest SDK and some proprietary techniques were used for creating cutting-edge visual detail while optimising the scenery for maximum performance.

Ground clutter, such as service vehicles, is accurately recreated.
