The airfield Porta Westfalica, the next VFR airfield for MSFS by Stairport, invites you for a scenic flight over the Weser Uplands.
Located in the district of Minden-Lübbecke at the Weser River, the field features an 860-meter-long asphalt runway and a 1,000-meter-long grass runway. Porta Westfalica is mostly used as a starting point for ridge lift flights over the Wiehen and Weser Hills, although the North Sea, be it the East Frisian Islands or for example Sankt Peter-Ording, is also just a 1-hour flight away.

Added to that the landing T on the signal square is static only, so it will happily indicate the wrong landing direction when windsock point in the opposite direction.
And unfortunately the developer hasn't made any effort to place grass runway markings that can be seen from a bit further out such as would be the case in reality. You only get the blurred ones part of the base aerial imagery.
Granted, there is some decent modelling to be found and the price is low. But the items mentioned above still make this a low effort job I cannot recommend. I wish Stairport would finally start to up their game and produce sceneries that are more accurate and feature rich.
