Terrapearl Studios releases Molokai Airport (PHMK) for MSFS

Visit Hawaii and explore its incredible landscapes while based at this detailed small airport.

Terrapearl Studios, the developers who brought us the picturesque Sekiu Airport and Marina earlier this year, are back to MSFS with a new release, this time in the Hawaiian Islands. Molokai Airport (PHMK), located on the namesake island in the Pacific.

Molokai is the fifth most populated island in Hawai, but with just over 7000 permanent inhabitants, it’s hardly a busy place. In fact, there isn’t even much tourism, so you’re looking at a mostly natural landscape.

The main airport on the island, here recreated by Terrapearl Studios, is a small airfield that is mostly used for commuter flights to other Hawaiian Islands. Mokulele Airlines has an important role here, flying to Honolulu, Kahului and Kalaupapa.

The developers are promising an extremely detailed airport, hand-crafted with great care in order to make it as realistic as possible. The official product images do look very nice indeed, with many small details that help giving an edge when it comes to realism and immersion. You will find custom ground pavements and tarmac, many custom objects and even some interior areas.

We know how sometimes it’s the small details that create the whole environment, and Terrapearl Studios seems to believe in that too. The airport is filled with clutter such as crates and barrels, but also many vehicles and workers doing their thing.

Flying in Hawaii is always a tremendous experience, and having custom-built airports as detailed as this one makes the whole thing even better. Molokai Airport (PHMK) is now available for just under $16.
