Oslo Airport (Norwegian: Oslo lufthavn; IATA: OSL, ICAO: ENGM), alternatively referred to as Oslo Gardermoen Airport or simply Gardermoen, is the international airport serving Oslo, Norway, the capital and most populous city in the country. A hub for Flyr, Norse Atlantic Airways, Norwegian Air Shuttle, Scandinavian Airlines and Widerøe, it connects to 26 domestic and 158 international destinations.nnThe airport is located 19 nautical miles (35 km; 22 mi) northeast of Oslo, at Gardermoen at the border of municipalities Nannestad and Ullensaker, in Viken county. It has two parallel roughly north–south runways measuring 3,600 metres (11,811 ft) and 2,950 metres (9,678 ft) and 71 aircraft stands, of which 50 have jet bridges. The airport is connected to the city center by the high-speed railway Gardermoen Line served by mainline trains and Flytoget. The percentage of passengers using public transport to get to and from the airport is one of the highest in the world at nearly 70%. The ground facilities are owned by Oslo Lufthavn AS, a subsidiary of the state-owned Avinor. Also at the premises is Gardermoen Air Station, operated by the Royal Norwegian Air Force. An expansion with a new terminal building and a third pier opened in late April 2017.nnThe airport location was first used by the Norwegian Army from 1940, with the first military airport facilities being built during the 1940s. The airport remained a secondary reserve and airport for chartered flights to Oslo Airport, Fornebu, until 8 October 1998, when the latter was closed and an all-new Oslo Airport opened at Gardermoen, costing 11.4 billion Norwegian kroner (NOK) Features:

I will actually have to retract my previous comment. After some further testing this airport performs amicably. Also downside is that it feels a bit empty but other than that it works really well (and integrates beautifully with GSX)!
The scenery is decent for its price. Only issue is the VRAM. I have 10bg vram and i still got an out of vram error which doesnt make sense as this scenery shouldnt require this much vram. A lot of optimization needs to be done before this scenery is worth using. For now, theres no point in using this scenery as p3d crashes once it runs out of vram.
Nice update for Prepar3d v5.
Since Prepar3d v4 I couldn't fly to Oslo.
But it is true that the performance is quite fair even with a powerful GPU. Having no installer, I had some trouble getting SODE to work.
I agree with previous comments, this one is really badly optimized. I hope this can be fixed as soon as possible as the product is not really worth it right now.
Really poorly optimised, have tried reducing my settings to bare minimum and still it's maxing out my VRAM. Scenery is basically useless at this point.
