This add-on delivers a refined representation of Milos Airport (LGML), nestled within the southwestern Cyclades in Greece. It introduces updated turning bays, an expanded apron, and carefully crafted terminal structures to enhance realism for Microsoft Flight Simulator X SP2/Acceleration. The developer, Manuel Seiwald, has meticulously designed its layout to capture the airport’s distinctive features and the intricacies of operating on a short runway in a region surrounded by the Aegean Sea. Pilots can expect a more immersive approach, especially when tackling the unique weather patterns often found in these island territories.
