Chubu Centrair International Airport (中部国際空港, Chūbu Kokusai Kūkō) (IATA: NGO, ICAO: RJGG) is an international airport on an artificial island in Ise Bay, Tokoname City in Aichi Prefecture, 35 km (22 mi) south of Nagoya in central Japan.Centrair is classified as a first class airport and is the main international gateway for the Chubu ("central") region of Japan. The name "Centrair" (セントレア, Sentorea) is an abbreviation of Central Japan International Airport, an alternate translation used in the English name of the airport's operating company, Central Japan International Airport Co., Ltd.

a very nice airport , i am very happy it appeared on msfs , although there are some things that need to be improved but it is not a problem for me the developers have worked hard on it they are making progress walk through each product , now it will be my favorite destination in the future , the main terminal looks great , it can watch the boats around , enjoy it
I would like recommend this airport, this is absolutely awesome works. Asia's airport is very rare and this is new hope for Asia's airports. I hope team will release more SEA airport in near future. Thank you very much!!!!
I decided to give this a try, but unfortunately, the rendition of Chubu Centrair is disappointing.
There are several aspects that would need much more work before I could recommend a purchase to anyone:
1: No terraforming has been done at all and everything has been left at sea level, with the concrete blocks of the breakwater just randomly slapped on the edge. This is unacceptable for an airport on reclaimed land. The whole artificial island needs to be correctly elevated above sea level. Other developers (for instance the recent Amami) managed to do it, so it's perfectly doable.
2: Many buildings all over the island are missing, on top of the VOR antenna and many more details. You see them "painted" on the ground and that's simply unsightly. On top of that, there are alignment mistakes in the railway bridge that the developer did not even bother to extend as far as the coast. It looks really bad.
3: Chubu Centrair is a major cargo airport, but no parking stand was marked as cargo. All the stands from 101 to 119 should be marked as cargo, not gates. They're absolutely not used by passenger airliners.
4: the metallic structure supporting the approach landing system on both threshold is just floating on top of nothing because the developer did not bother to give it pillars. It doesn't even look like the real one, and the lights are not even lined up with it (they're erroneously under it). It even has a LOT problem so it appears suddenly only when you're very close. The blocks of the breakwater have the same LOD problem.
These are all critical flaws for an airport of this importance, especially considering that the price is NOT cheap at all. The asking price for this airport is comparable to top-notch creations of the same scale, and the quality simply is not.
It is my impression that the developer aims to create big airports likely because they would be more popular, but lacks the resources to do them justice. It would perhaps be advisable to do much smaller airports, but better.
At the moment, the only redeeming features of this airport are the custom jetways and the relatively decent main terminal.
If the creators manages to address all the points mentioned above, I will amend this review, but for now, I would suggest avoiding this and waiting for a more seasoned developer with more resources to do this important airport justice.
