Following their well-received release of Palanga International Airport, LisiumDesign has now brought another major Baltic hub to Microsoft Flight Simulator – Riga International Airport (EVRA), Latvia’s busiest and most important international airport.
Situated just 10 km west of Riga’s city centre, Riga serves as the primary hub for airBaltic, connecting the Latvian capital to destinations across Europe, including London, Paris, and Helsinki. With its three passenger terminals, a 2,987m main runway, and dedicated cargo facilities, the airport handles millions of passengers and tonnes of freight annually. LisiumDesign has recreated Riga International with an impressive level of accuracy, ensuring a highly detailed and immersive experience for both commercial and general aviation simmers alike.
LisiumDesign has developed a well-researched, faithful and highly detailed rendition of Riga International which is bound to delight anyone who flies in the region, featuring:
- Handcrafted, high-resolution models of terminals, hangars, land and airside infrastructure
- Accurate ground markings and custom taxiway signage
- Detailed interior modelling for key areas such as concourse and gate areas
- Realistic night lighting for 24/7 operations
- Custom jetways and ground clutter for added immersion
- Optimized performance to ensure smooth operation on the best range of hardware setups – a key area for developers recently.
A Growing Portfolio of Baltic Airports
LisiumDesign has quickly built a reputation for delivering exceptionally detailed and well-optimized airports in the Baltic region. Their previous release, Palanga International Airport (EYPA), was praised for its accuracy and performance and has been a firm favourite ever since. This is clearly illustrated by its popularity on networks such as VATSIM and IVAO. With the addition of Riga International, the developer continues to establish itself as a key player in the higher end of the scenery market, delivering high-quality regional airports with impressive realism.
LisiumDesign’s Riga International Airport (EVRA) is available now on Flightsim.to for €21.21, and offers simulation enthusiasts a highly detailed and immersive gateway to the Baltics, great to explore if you know the region or even better; a reason to fly in a new area.
