Justsim has released a mostly good looking airport with this one, good amount of detail throughout the airport, nice texturing for the buildings, all quite pleasing. And a big thank you for doing custom approach light masts, something that most other devs overlook constantly!
Unfortunately there are 3 items that drag the rating down for me:
- The choice for the aerial imagery is quite an odd one; There seems to be some construction work ongoing and the result being that the runway is embedded in dirt, no grass. I'm pretty sure this was only temporary on the real airport so I wished they would have chosen a normal grass version for the imagery.
- While they've taken good care on some areas of the airports perimeter, there are many odd spots throughout the scene with colour artefacts and large areas of flat buildings and such. So landing from the west is not the prettiest sight unfortunately.
- What's the deal with this fantasy livery for the static 747s? Justsim Air Cargo with no option to remove it? And one of them placed in front of the Cargolux hangar? That is just an unnecessary immersion killer for me.
Justsim can make this into a winner quite easily; Tidy up the surroundings, use better aerial imagery for the runway and get rid of this fantasy static aircraft. Oh and fix the flickering gate number signs in the cargo area while you're at it :)
I can recommend getting this scenery, I just hope that it will be polished a bit more.
Hey, I usually don't write reviews but since im based at ELLX, I was really looking forward for the Msfs 2024 ELLX version, and it didn't dissapoint! The buildings are extremely true to life and the textures are awesome as well. There's just one thing, left and right of the Rwy, the grass is white/yellow, would be awesome if the grass could be green just as in real life :)
Thanks to the team for this awesome addon?
So far so good, finally ELLX in FS24 - very big installation size (around 8,8gb) - overall nice appearance, custom satellite imagery, terminal interior - however, no blue taxiway edge lights!! pls fix
