Impressive rendition, accurate textures, and an overall good job. I owned the P3D version and I loved it. HOWEVER, the FPS performance is... subpar. I understand the Vancouver area is highly modeled and I'm okay losing some performance for that, but it is getting to a point I can't fly the aircraft. It's also very random. I once got decent performance (20-30 FPS) on an approach on a rainy and overcast day and I got null FPS on an approach on a CAVOK day... On an LAX-YVR run, I get better performance in LAX using a third-party scenery, AI traffic, etc...than Vancouver, and that's not acceptable.
A good rendition however after SU5 all my taxi signs disappeared. I haven't tried reinstalling since SU6 as I currently have another developers installed.
