Welcome to Barcelona-El Prat (LEBL), the heart of Catalonia!
Located 12 kilometers southwest of Barcelona, it's Spain's second busiest airport. It is a crucial gateway to the Catalonia region, offering connections across Europe and international destinations. The airport features two main terminals, T1 and T2, designed to efficiently manage millions of passengers annually. Terminal 1 is noted for its modern architecture and range of services, including shopping and dining, while Terminal 2 caters to domestic and low-cost flights.

Very nice scenery, a winner in the present competition between these developers, LVFR and Justsim. Performance is good but not excellent - might be a room for some improvements.
Overall, a very good rendition of LEBL, and certainly an big improvement over the existing versions by LVFR and JustSim.
I don't own the Sim-Wings version but I've made some meticulous comparisons (using the online resources available to me) and, perhaps surprisingly, the MK version matches and even exceeds it in a number of key areas. MK's terminal textures look better and the whole area to the east of the old terminal has been done in more detail. The only area that seems better in the SW version is the cargo centre. SW also arguably has better terminal interiors, and I imagine they'll have used custom Spanish airfield lighting/markings as they typically do.
SW added the port area in an update — presumably because MK's included it by default — however it looks rushed, with MK's having better detail (MK's port looks great at night).
I'd ideally like to give 4.5 stars due to the lack of custom Spanish airfield signage/lighting but I don't think the omission warrants dropping it to 4.
