As far east as you can go before you fall off the end of Canada.
St johns is a small airport with plenty to offer. Two airlines fly narrow bodies across the Atlantic with the airport being closer to London that it is to Vancouver. YYT is also home to offshore helicopters, the Canadian air force and many airlines operating to the small airfields in and around newfoundland.
The Scenery features an updated Layout, SODE Jetways, seasonal ground textures, and a modelled surrounding area, including the tourist helipad south of the airport.
Other features include:
Updated ground charts.
Winter overlay for the apron and taxiways.
Terminal and Helicopter Hangar interior (Optional).
Meine Begeisterung hält sich in Grenzen. Umland sieht ohne ORBX nicht annähernd so gut aus wie auf den Abbildungen. Installation Default in Dokumentenpfad. De-Installation nicht vollständig.
ILS Approach Lichter viel zu hell... sieht bei Tag aus wie Gewitterblitze und in der Nacht erst. Keine Supportreaktion....
Would love to see an FSX & Steam version of your St.Johns. I would buy it in a heartbeat. I use FSX Steam & P3DV4.5 so I would like to have it for both.
St. John's International Airport! What a fantastic idea! Have been dreaming about it ever since! And now it's very much real!
Last year I was watching a cockpit DVD about Air Canada's transatlantic A319 flights and said to myself, oh it would be so cool to recreate the route. And you know what, FSlabs' A319 was just around the corner, UK2000's EGKK was released so two-third of the whole was already right there in front of me. But who would ever consider St. John's, really?
Man, Grand Island Sim actually did! After their debut masterpiece African scenery, Banjul (a must buy, make sure you check it out!), capital of The Gambia which was their first Simmarket product, the developer announced that St. John's is coming! I knew from that moment that it will blow my mind and should I say, the product is pure perfection! It looks like a new favorite developer emerged and from now on I am confident I will buy whatever GIS releases.
First of all, the 3D models, be it buildings, vehicles or any other static or dynamic stuff, are simply awesome, easily matching the quality of any top-notch developers. The textures are superb, both day and night. We've got everything here, from SODE jetways to seasonal textures, of which I'd like to highlight the winter ones, they are phenomenal! Even the airport surroundings are pretty nicely done! I cannot find a single thing to complain about.
Two products, two masterpieces from Grand Island Sim. A very, very bright future ahead for them and I am already looking forward to what is the next GIS project is going to be, safe to say it's gonna be another very exciting destination!
Hesitate no more, St. John's by Grand Island Sim is without any doubt a five-star product and an awesome destination especially if you like to fly IFR. If you are using real-world weather, Newfoundland will often trial your instrument flying skills, so be prepared. The airport itself sees a not only domestic, intra-Canadian flights but a number of international ones too. You can escape the harsh winter to the Caribbean or hop over the pond to London in a narrow-body Airbus.
I can only recommend this stunning work of art. Excellent job, way to go guys!
