Review it now!
The concerns I had about this scenery have all been addressed by the 1.15 update
This is now a genuine 5 star product.
Good representation of the airport (which I know well) and amazing performance, given the size and location of the airport.
Great work.

I would be remiss if I did not share that I was looking for a lot more, having patronized Jennnsoft and commending them on their other title releases. This one just did not deliver to the level of expectation. Bear in mind, they have made a stellar effort with maintaining a very exceptional and commendable performance level for this airport in this highly texting region.
The product is Good but doesn't beat its competitor at this current stage/version. I do look to Jennasoft to response with the duly noted improvements the delivery the WOW!!! factor.

I believe the SEGS are missing? Unless I have an issue that is not showing these. I am too having a texture flicking when looking at certain views of the airport. The ground textures do not match ORBX for this time of the year? I really hope these issues and others have raised are addressed.
If you look at the North Terminal for example, the contrast between windows and the panelling should be strong. The windows should be quite dark- look at any photo of the airport. All that contrast (which is on the texture) has been lost once the specs are applied and the windows become almost the same tone as the panel. Fix this and there will be a massive visual improvement. You just need to darken the alpha on the specs, but by a substantial amount.
The grass colour is nuts for the UK. It rains here sometimes! The grass should be green not yellow. Grass is generally darker than concrete and probably as dark as the asphalt. This is much too light. More specifically, I think the expectation nowadays is that grass colours should match ORBX global texture colours and tone. Once that grass is darkened there will be another big improvement in appearance- it's quite a big issue.
Night-lighting is poor, essentially because the buildings are too bright. Darker is always a safer option.
I have some texture anomalies. The runway changes colour on peripheral views. This may or may not be down to the product. Some flashing elsewhere.....
BUT---- texturing is sharp, performance is very very good, airport layout seems correct. So many examples of excellent work. This has potential to be fantastic- but please fix the above..
