Skyline Simulations has recently released their rendition of Queen Tamar Airport (UGSM) for X-Plane 11 and 12, serving Mestia in Georgia, with a yearly average of 9,300 passengers as of 2022.

Mestia Airport was part of Georgia’s plan to increase regional tourist figures. It was built in 2010 with a GEL 8 million investment, with an architectural project that boasts a modern glassy style that contrasts with the natural surroundings and does not impact the environment. Designed and created by Jurgen Mayer-Hermann, the BBC considers the airport one of the world’s most beautiful. 

With a 1,158-meter runway at 1,456 meters above sea level, the range of aircraft that can fly into this airport is limited. It’s currently only served by Vanilla Sky with their Let L-410 UVP-Es, taking passengers to Kutaisi, where passengers can connect with the rest of Europe.

The scenery features a detailed rendition of the airport, with custom ground textures, custom OSM data, PBR materials, custom 3D vegetation, custom 3D objects, high-resolution buildings, animated flags, and more.

It’s available on SimMarket for roughly $9.65, requiring at least 4.49 GB of free hard disk space to install.
