I picked this and Vol 2 up on sale and I am glad I did. It is a great island hopping scenery area. Lots of interesting small field with nice textures. Unfortunately the default textures remain just underneath the add on textures at most of the airfields. Some more than others. Still a decent package but not worth full price.
Nice! An excellent addition of several quality fields in northeast Germany for GA flying and local to regional airliners. Being a flat landscape in that part of the country, the fields and strips tend to reside in a not so exciting environment, compared to for example the spectacular landscape around their Swiss counterparts.
The modelling is for the most part excellent, ground textures are good enough and the ship traffic on the canal, aswell as the helicopter dynamics in Kiel lends life and credibility to the whole atmosphere. Lots of statis cars, and numerous little details, like signs, tables, people lend nice ambience on the small strips.
Especially Kiel and Flensburg I like a lot, and soaring along the Ostsee canal is pure pleasure. One star off for including three or four airstrips that do not feel finished and are sloppily done, like Neumuenster. Better to just omit them instead of throwing unfinished ones in to make the list longer.
Some minor flaws when ships are not so well aligned when they go under bridges, but overall the animations work well and look great, considering the limitations of FSX.
Summing up, I highly recommend this scenery for anyone who is in for easy (but often windy!) GA flying between good, life like airfields. Great value for money.
