Located in Fort Meade, Maryland, Tipton Airport (KFME) is a single-runway public airport situated approximately 7 nautical miles southwest of Baltimore/Washington International Thurgood Marshall Airport (KBWI).

• Detailed landside features, including Airfield Road and General Aviation Drive with painted lines, parking lot markings, and custom wayfinder signs.

The airport’s 3,000-foot Runway 10/28 supports RNAV approaches in both directions. Its proximity to the Washington/Baltimore Class Bravo airspace, which begins at 1,500 feet above the airport and extends to the surface toward KBWI, offers pilots a realistic and challenging flying environment.

KFME Tipton Airport is available for purchase on SimMarket for €8.99 (approximately $10.08 USD). The package includes SimInstaller technology, allowing for seamless installation and updates via the SimMarket app.
