Verticalsim’s KPIE St. Pete/Clearwater Intl Airport for Microsoft Flight Simulator offers a dynamic flying experience on Florida’s scenic West Coast. This mid-sized airport is a hub of activity, home to a U.S. Coast Guard station, an Allegiant airlines base, and a U.S. Air National Guard Blackhawk Squadron.

KPIE provides a variety of flight experiences, with over 60 Allegiant routes across the U.S. and numerous options for general aviation and private jet flights. The airport’s facilities cater to all types of aviators, from sight-seeing tours in a Comanche to luxurious FBO services for private jets. Its location makes it an ideal destination for those looking to explore the Clearwater and St. Pete areas or embark on a vacation to this beautiful region.
The airport features a terminal with a simple interior design for optimal performance, fully modeled USCG and FBO buildings, and custom high-grade aerial imagery. The 2024 airport layout is accurately represented with custom static models of Coast Guard aircraft, detailed texturing of airport buildings with PBR technology, and optimized LODs.
