Almería is a Spanish city, capital of the province with the same name, whichs belong to the autonomous community of Andalusia. It is the nerve center of the Comarca Metropolitana de Almería and the tourist region of Almería-Cabo de Gata-Níjar, located at the extreme southeast of the Iberian Peninsula. It is surrounded on the west by the Sierra de Gádor, by the Sierra Alhamilla at the north and on the east by the valley and delta of the Andarax River and, beyond, a plain that culminates in the Sierra de Cabo de Gata. To the south, its port and coastline open onto a wide bay over the Mediterranean Sea.
We have built this area using the best available aerial images and with utmost accuracy.

I agree with the both others: The Airport itself is very nice. But there are some things, because of that I'll give only 2 Stars:
Airport:
3-4 Stars: only major thing is: you can't disable the static Ryanair and the GA-Jet. That's bad when you use AI. And I'm not so happy with the apron textures, but this is a matter of taste. The ADE can be done really better, more AI friendly and better adjusted.
huge Photoscenery:
2 Stars: it seems only summer textures are included: mostly brown textures. Because of that, the blending ist not very well with ORBX Global. And the most important thing: a lot of missing autogen and custom building.
Sceneryconfigurator:
0 Stars: not available
Support:
0 Stars: I was asking a few times, but they didn't like how I asked - no answer. But there are some other reports from users with the same experience - no answer. There is no support forum available for this product.
If you fly mostly in summer, and you don't care about the missing autogen and buildings because you like to have some higher FPS and you don't need support, you'll like this airport - very nice itself.
I agree with Maurice!
This is a lovely airport. So far, I have not discovered any weakness.
For me this will a prefered starting point for flights within the south of Spain.
Great product!
The developers Latinwings and PILOT's had a great eye on the details. Not only in the airport aera also in the surrounding area. This addon has everything a modern flightsim addon airport needs:
- 3D gras
- many custom buildings
- sharpen textures
- photoscenery to cover a very big aerial
- many custom objects
- very good runway + taxiway textures
It is a must-have in my eyes.
An absolutely stunning scenery that not only covers the Airport but also the surrounding areas with high resolution phototextures and custom autogen objects. The city of almeria with its famous greenhouses is also part of the scenery as well as a very detailed harbor area. High quality, perfect performance and uses all the P3Dv4 features as Dynamic lighting, high res custom ground poly etc. Recommended!
