Orbx has recently released their rendition of Mount Isa Airport (YBMA) for Microsoft Flight Simulator 2020 and 2024, serving Mount Isa, Queensland, Australia, with an average of 217,526 passengers per year.

It was built in the 1950s, replacing the former Mount Isa aerodrome, which was built in the 1920s to provide an air link from Mount Isa to the important hubs across the country.

In 1969, a new passenger terminal was built to accommodate the ever-growing demand for air traffic in the region.

Further expansion work was carried out in the 1980s to allow the airport to handle bigger jets.

In the early 2000s, the terminal underwent major refurbishment to improve the overall experience.

It’s served by Alliance Airlines, Qantas, QantasLink, Rex Airlines, and Virgin Australia.

The scenery features an accurate rendition of the airport, with custom aerial imagery, a detailed terminal and hangar, custom ground service equipment, an up-to-date ground layout, custom night lighting, custom windsocks, and more.

It’s available on OrbxDirect (2020/2024) for roughly $18.42, requiring at least 1.83 GB of free hard disk space to install.
