Prague in the Czech Republic is known as 'the City of a Hundred Spires' with its Romanesque chapels and cellars Gothic cathedrals, Baroque palaces and gardens. When the airport was completed in 1937, it was described as one of the largest in Europe. It has since been through a few transformations and was renamed Václav Havel Airport Prague in 2012.

The Orbx team has faithfully recreated the airport and surrounding area in its current state with recent real-world changes. Other highlights include detailed 3D modelling and high-quality photorealistic textures, complete with PBR (Physically Based Rendering). The package also sports custom animations, jetways, ground service equipment and dynamic night lighting.

Beyond the airport, 90km2 of custom ortho imagery improves the cloud-based imagery that is in the simulator. In total, 21 custom POIs have been modelled such as the Motol University Hospital with landable helipad, Hvězda Summer Pavilion, HORNBACH Praha and Šestka shopping stores.
