İstanbul Airport ( ICAO: LTFM, IATA: IST) is the new main international airport serving Istanbul. It has been operating since 2018 and it ranks 1st among airports in Turkey. The Istanbul Airport, built on an area of 76,5 million square meters aims to be a global hub between the continents of Asia, Africa and Europe. The airport is located to the northwest of Istanbul, by the Black Sea shore, about 40 km from the city center.
The airport is still undergoing development phases and the target is to reach a capacity of 200 million passengers, once all the phases of the airport are operational. Currently the development Phase 1 is completed. As of Phase 1, Istanbul Airport with its terminal building of 1.4 million m2, multistorey carpark with 18,000 cars’ capacity, and 5 runways in active operation has currently a passenger capacity of 90 Million.
The airport currently has 5 parallel runways, 3 of which are CAT II/III. The configuration allows 3 parallel landings and take offs possible.

On both my pc’s with Live Traffic and AIG ac I am seeing 33-39 fps in 4K.
So more than enough for a smooth Flightsim experience.
- plenty of detail, just the right amount of clutter around the airport
- the inside of the terminal has passengers. Not many, not everywhere - just enough to convince you this is not a ghost terminal
- the scenery manages very well to convey the sheer size of this mega-terminal
- the elevation issues reported earlier (for Navigraph users) are gone with the latest version
- very friendly and reactive support by email
Contra:
- due to it‘s size, this scenery taxes even a fast machine. I experienced some stutter while taxiing close to the terminal. Once I got further away from it (200-300m) it became fluid again.Maybe this can be solved with some optimization.
Conclusion:
I recommend this scenery. The scenic approaches alone would be worth the investment!
I‘m glad this mega airport is now part of my collection…
due to the fact that I had a night flight, the main terminal can hardly be seen when landing, very poor lighting of the terminal itself and the apron. During the day, the textures are much better, but it seems to me that something is simply missing. In any case, the night textures spoil the image this scenery for 5 stars, sorry. I hope that in the future I will not be forced to buy additional lighting like at other airports in Europe, especially at Asobo airport EDDF, LFPG, HECA, etc... we'll see..
