The Malpensa airport is the largest airport of northern Italy. It's located 46 km northeast of the city of Milan
The location of today's airport played a rather important role in the history of the Italian aviation, as on May 27 in 1910 Gianni Caproni's first airplane, the Ca.1, started here. At this historic place Giovanni Agusta built prototype airplanes as well. Later Malpensa became a military airfield. Commercial flying started in 1948. The first intercontinental connection (to New York City) was established only two years later
Nowadays Malpensa airport has two terminals and a large cargo area
ILS:
RWY 35L: IMA 109.1 MHz
RWY 35R: MLP 109.9 MHz
RWY 17L: IMSL 110.75 MHz
PAPI for all runways with a slope of 3°
Release info:
The goal is not to create the airport as realistic as possible, but more to just improve its visual style and is mainly made based on Google Maps data

Update version 0.5.6:

- Added a few new ground markings
Update version 0.6:

- All parking spaces and taxiways are now included
- More ground markings added
Update version 0.7:

Update version 0.7.5:

Known issues, currently not included yet or not planned:
- The terminals will get more details and improved textures in the future
- Not all buildings are done. If a building is currently not present, there is an autogen building instead
- Further polishing of the airport with more details, better textures, improved ground markings, better night-lighting and so on will come in future updates
- The ATC is not able to recognize the no entry signs on the taxiways
- No optimization for snow on taxiways or on aprons
This project is made with a mix of default and custom textures. Therefore when using a mod which changes the default ground textures/lines, the look might be different.

Its a problem that other pilots have like me?
This is a very important bug.... for this reason I give only 2 stars. Lets hope that in the morning the airport will be better.

This work got a lot of potential. Several things are missing, so i will leave a 4 out of 5 stars rating for now. I'm looking forward to any possibile addictional update, despite the developer has been offline since November.

Hello @prairielet,
thanks for the great airport. The general scenery of the terminal and the custom jetways are very nice but the airport needs an update. The custom ILS has to be removed because of SU11. Now important waypoints (MC-waypoints) are missing, this isn´t good for the SID´s and STAR´s. Also I was a little bit confused of the entries to the aprons at my last visit at Malpensa. I came from taxiway Whisky and wanted to take taxiway Sierra to the terminal but at every junction there was only taxiway kilo given on the signboardes only on the ground markings it was shown corectly. To sum up I like the airport very much (thanks for all your work) but it needs an update to be 100% useful for VATSIM or IVAO. Best regards.

Just my opinion, but this one is far better than the Deimnos Inc version.
