MSFS 2024 Marketplace Scenery: 8 NEW Handcrafted Airports Tested (KHPN, Destin, Nîmes & More!)

If you're looking to shape up your flight routes in Microsoft Flight Simulator 2024, the marketplace just revealed an expansive multi-continent scenery lineup. This week bridges the gap between busy US corporate jet hubs, high-altitude STOL competition strips, and distinctive international gateways spanning Europe, Africa, Asia, and Australia.

In this comprehensive scenery breakdown, we inspect all 8 new handcrafted airports side-by-side against default MSFS 2024 autogen to evaluate custom terminal modeling, ground textures, apron wear-and-tear, and overall performance value:

✈️ US CORPORATE, REGIONAL & STOL HUBS
We start on the US East Coast at Westchester County Airport (KHPN) in White Plains, NY by Fly2High, featuring detailed interior modeling and custom hangars. Next, we fly down to Florida’s Emerald Coast for Destin Executive Airport (KDTS) by Fly2High, comparing its default autogen tarmac against the upgraded high-resolution ground markings and tower details. We also stop by Pinedale Ralph Wenz Field in Wyoming to inspect the specialized setup for the National STOL competition.

🌍 MEDITERRANEAN & NORTH AFRICAN GATEWAYS
Heading overseas, we explore Moulay Ali Cherif Airport (GMFK) in Errachidia, southeastern Morocco by Isma with custom PBR ground markings. Then, we head into southern France for Nîmes-Garons Airport (LFTW)—a vital hub for passenger charters and French Sécurité Civile aerial firefighting missions featuring static Canadair CL-415 and EC145 aircraft.

🏝️ REMOTE GLOBAL & ISLAND DESTINATIONS
Finally, we touch down at Altay Airport (ZWAT) in northwest China for regional Boeing 737 ops, evaluate Towersoft's complete overhaul and GSX profile for Resistencia International Airport (SARE) in Argentina, and wrap up with King Island Airport (YKII) off Tasmania, Australia—complete with handcrafted radar towers, local factories, and detailed regional terminal interiors.
