While the main terminal and its surroundings are modelled quite nicely with good textures and a nicely textured main apron, the rest of the airport clearly lacks detail and accuracy unfortunately.
You need to know that the default aerial imagery is used for this scenery. This results in an enormous diagonal division line running across the airport where Bing has two different images joined, a dark one and a bright one.The airport developer unfortunately did not do anything to correct this so the appearance is not true-to-life at all.
And then there are these unnecessarily careless items that just add up to something that is not good quality anymore: A parking lot next to the runway, where there are trucks visible on the aerial image, they just placed cars on top of it that do not match. The localiser antenna is displaced by a few meters for no reason, and one set of PAPI lights does not match the base photo either. And why couldn't they just model the fire crew training aircraft and area east of the runway, it would have given a bit of life to an otherwise very dull area of the airport, and you clearly see the flat training aircraft on the aerial image.
So overall the airport has parts that are done quite nicely, but I wish the developer would have given more care to everything that is away from the main apron and terminal.
One of the sweetest airports I have seen so far for MSFS. No 5 stars yet as the jetways are still static and should be updated. It would also be nice to fill the terminal with more and moving people like we have it in EDLP Paderborn from Aerosoft and this was offered as freeware.
