Airport Overview
Cloud9’s Podgorica is a must-have for flight enthusiasts looking to explore the beautiful
mountainous destination of Podgorica in Eastern Europe. This detailed rendition of LYPG
International Airport captures the essence of the region with stunning accuracy and amazing
textures. In this 2023 version, you get the latest and up to date terminal building and simply the
amazing, picturesque approaches either done during the daytime or nighttime.
The airport, a small single runway airport located in the heart of Montenegro, serving roughly 1.2
million passengers per year with direct service to 30+ airports around the world. The scenery
includes a completely new terminal building with detailed textures, offering an immersive and
realistic experience for virtual pilots. At night, the airport comes to life with full illumination and
dynamic lighting, creating a visually captivating atmosphere. Additionally, the joy of having a full
remote apron with no jetways is a unique experience and seamless integration with SODE, GSX
and the ORBX global base pack when the ground textures blend in!

technologies such as Full night illumination, Dynamic Lighting, P3D v5/v6 native materials

mountainous landscapes.
Modelling and Texturing
After carefully examining the terminal and its features, CLOUD9 have used high quality textures
and have modelled all the major airport buildings with emphasis on high quality texturing and
details of the apron.
Without a doubt, the modelling is of high P3D addon quality, the details included near the main
terminal which shows that CLOUD9 have put a lot of effort and work into the product and its

with amazingly high textures which have been placed around the parking positions features which
go flawlessly along with any ground addon such as GSX.
