Reviews (by James)

No other word for this scenery, just "superb". The depth of detail and realism is among the best I have seen in the new simulator.

I thoroughly recommend this product. This software eliminates the frustratingly jerky and over-sensitive rudder present in the A320. This important if your rudder is attached to the joystick as many are. The dynamics are more stable. The flying experience is not only far more realistic but far more enjoyable. You will not be disappointed.

This scenery is the missing link if you are bored with the repetitive sameness of the default scenery and other ground texture products that have been around for years. This scenery is as real as it gets. Finally we have a product that looks from the flight deck exactly like the real thing. It enhances the realism of the flight sim experience greatly. Note that this is not a low altitude VFR product. It is more suited to higher altitude flying with airliners or military aircraft.To really see the benefit you do need to be above 5000 feet or so. The higher you are, the better it gets. Once you attain cruising altitude, I cannot think of another product that rivals this software. I thoroughly recommend this software to you.

This review is an addendum to my previous review and I am happy to report that since that review my only criticism has been addressed by the developers. Frame rates are now acceptable and as a result, the flying experience has been greatly enhanced. I am happy to recommend Abu Dhabi. All credit to Simbreeze. They have made a serious effort to address the original performance issue and have accomplished this with great success.

This scenery has been long anticipated. Regrettably, I have to say that I am disappointed with the airport as it stands as frame rates are very low. Approaches are therefore quite unstable from quite a distance away. With Fly Tampa's OMDB 15 mins flight away, there is a marked difference in performance between Dubai and Abu Dhabi. Until Simbreeze can correct this significant performance issue, I can only give it 2 stars. On the assumption the performance issue can be addressed, I will be open to a much more positive review.

YSSY is my home airport. I know it like the back of my hand. I have spent many thousands of hours sitting under the control tower in an area called "The Mound". In my view this work is faultless. Thank you George for the pain staking detail and passion you have put into this. It has been a while but you have produced a masterpiece worth waiting for. I thoroughly recommend this product as a YSSY expert who has lived in this city for nearly 50 years. 5 stars goes without saying.
