ANTS AIRPLANES - TIGER MOTH PRO FSX P3D

ANTS AIRPLANES - TIGER MOTH PRO FSX P3D

This is a great simulation of this classic biplane - the VC and external modelling are excellent as are the flight dynamics and the sounds which are a very true replication of the Gypsy Major engine. It also comes with a very useful and innovative interactive pilots handbook. Highly recommended and great value!

FSXCENERY - KSYR SYRACUSE HANCOCK INTERNATIONAL AIRPORT FSX P3D1-3

FSXCENERY - KSYR SYRACUSE HANCOCK INTERNATIONAL AIRPORT FSX P3D1-3

This airport addon is pretty good, although the textures of buildings, etc are not quite up to what one expects of airports developed for FSX today, being more reminiscent of airports developed during the FS9 era or before. This developer seems to be producing a considerable number of very welcome new 'secondary' airports but I feel, for their quality their price is a little on the high side and I would suggest that they might achieve a much larger volume of sales by dropping their asking price by a few dollars.

AEROSOFT - SAMOS FSX P3D

AEROSOFT - SAMOS FSX P3D

This is one really high quality product with excellent airport detail and a very good rendition of the island as a whole, particularly the area around the airport itself with all the landmarks you need to look for on the approach. In addition, the VAS usage is low and the FPS achieved flying in the area (if you are interested in FPS) is surprisingly high. Very highly recommended!

DIGITAL DESIGN - LOWS SALZBURG W.A. MOZART FSX P3D

DIGITAL DESIGN - LOWS SALZBURG W.A. MOZART FSX P3D

Incredible scenery - as other reviewers have said great frame rates and very reasonable VAS usage for the degree of detail included. I run FSX on what I would describe as a mid range system (certainly not fast) and, at times, my system struggles with detailed scenery but not with LOWS. I can highly recommend this scenery, both for its amazing performance and its very accurate reproduction of not just the airport but of this beautiful old city, which I have visited a number of times and with which I am very familiar.

AEROSOFT - MEGA AIRPORT DUBLIN FSX P3D/FS2004 (DOWNLOAD)

AEROSOFT - MEGA AIRPORT DUBLIN FSX P3D/FS2004 (DOWNLOAD)

An excellent airport addon and a vastly superior replacement for the alternative payware versions of EIDW. Beautiful, realistic and authentic replication of Dublin Airport with plenty of autogen and traffic - this product manages to make the airport look 'alive', which is the overall feeling I am always looking for with a new addon. No problems with OOMs here and surprisingly very good frame rates for an airport of this detail, which actually drop when I fly away from the airport scenery over Dublin city (an Orbx issue not an Aerosoft issue). Can highly recommend this!

AEROSOFT - MEGA AIRPORT ROME FS2004 (DOWNLOAD)

Very pleased with this latest Mega Airport product. It appears to be a thoroughly well-modelled version of LIRF, with a generous amount of autogen and AI vehicles. The background landclass features within the airport perimeter fit in very well with the autogen buildings and despite all these features, there appears to be no framerate hit. Highly recommended!

FBS - DA NANG INTERNATIONAL AIRPORT FS2004

FBS - DA NANG INTERNATIONAL AIRPORT FS2004

A very nice addon for this airport - not quite up to the very high standards now achieved by some other developers but not far off anf certainly deserving of a score of 5. I particularly liked the attention payed to proving plenty of autogen in the surrounding area - this works extremely well although I would not get too close to the buildings close to the airport perimeter which have the appearence of a Hollywood facade, but from a distance (ie within the airport) the effect is very good. All of this also comes at a very reasonable price!

ONET VALLEY - KRABI AIRPORT FS2004

ONET VALLEY - KRABI AIRPORT FS2004

A nice scenery addon but I too do not like the surrounding square area of photoscenery which unfortunately does not blend in well with the default scenery. There is also a reasonable amount of autogen around the perimeter which I feel enhances the sense of realism of any airport addon.

AEROSOFT - YEKATERINBURG X (DOWNLOAD)

An excellent addon for a very much neglected part of the flight simulator world! In addition to beautiful modelling of the airport buildings, the developers have added a good amount of autogen around the airport which always adds considerably to the sense of realism and which some developers still seem to omit. Also good value particularly if you use both FS9 and FSX. Thank you to Aerosoft for continuing to support FS9.

VIENTIANE WATTAY INTL LAOS VLVT

Although it doesn't quite have the lifelike feeling of absolute realism that you get with the best airport addons today, I can't really find any fault with this product! I note with some of the other Onet Valley products that reviewers have said they have had problems with bleed-through of textures, but I certainly have no such problems with this quite nice scenery addon. Might have been rated a five had there been a little more around or just outside the airport perimeter which seems very empty!

TROPICALSIM - TIRANA LATI FS9 FSX P3D

TROPICALSIM - TIRANA LATI FS9 FSX P3D

A very nice addon for a country for which, as far as I know, there is no other airport scenery available. Not quite up to the extremely high standard of the very best available FS9 airports produced today, but nevertheless still very realistic and enjoyable at a fair price considering it includes both FS9 and FSX versions - particularly now that it is on special offer!

BORISFORERO - GUAYAQUIL - RUTA DEL SOL - ECUADOR

BORISFORERO - GUAYAQUIL - RUTA DEL SOL - ECUADOR

Just bought the updated version of this product and was very pleasantly surprised. Not only do you get a very good quality version of Guayaquil Airport but you also get 3 other airports of reasonably good quality with some surrounding autogen scenery in addition. In Guayaquil there is a good amount of autogen including active road traffic on the road under the approach and a fair amount of autogen features of the surrounding city, Experienced very good frame rates at Guayaquil Airport itself (average 46 with Captain Sim 757!)and overall I am very happy with this addon.

RURAL VISTAS - PAUMA VALLEY AIRSTRIPS

RURAL VISTAS - PAUMA VALLEY AIRSTRIPS

A nice little addon in a nice area to fly (particularly if combined with Megascenery Southern California) with some good eye-candy and other effects and also some realistic looking orange groves on which to practice your crop spraying, if you enjoy that sort of thing! A little expensive however for what you get!
