SKY FLYER HANGAR - VFRREADY KAZAKHSTAN P3D4 P3D5

SKY FLYER HANGAR - VFRREADY KAZAKHSTAN P3D4 P3D5

Borat approved! Would have liked the western, more arid regions of Kazakhstan to look a little more barren and foreboding but not a bad product considering that Kazakhstan (and most of Central Asia, unfortunately) is not exactly a hotbed of scenery choices. Sky Flyer Hangar does good work. I would *love* to see them add nearby Kyrgyzstan and Tajikistan into their product mix. Those mountainous Central Asian nations would make for some very nice flight sim experiences.

SKY FLYER HANGAR - NORTHWESTERN FEDERAL DISTRICT P3D4 P3D5

SKY FLYER HANGAR - NORTHWESTERN FEDERAL DISTRICT P3D4 P3D5

I took a gamble and ordered one of the Sky Flyer Hanger scenery product for a Russian federal district (Far East) and was highly impressed by the quality of their work. I immediately proceeded to purchased the whole set of Russian federal districts. Very nicely done and much better than the standard P3D scenery for Russia even if you are using the ORBX global enhancement products. Great work! Only problem I had was that this scenery didn't seem to work for me with P3D V5 but I mostly use V4 so not a big deal.

SIM-MECH - JET PROVOST T.4 XS186 P3DV4/V5

SIM-MECH - JET PROVOST T.4 XS186 P3DV4/V5

Clearly a lot of LOVE has been put into the creation of this particular aircraft. Great job and really like taking her up. Not too powerful an engine and handles very well, as expected for a jet trainer. The recent update with PDR textures was much appreciated. It's wonderful aircraft like this one that keep me flying with P3D rather than the other flight sim alternatives.

SKY FLYER HANGAR - URAL FEDERAL DISTRICT P3D4 P3D5

SKY FLYER HANGAR - URAL FEDERAL DISTRICT P3D4 P3D5

Took a chance and tried the Far Eastern Federal District from Sky Flyer Hanger (Digital Russia) and loved it! Much better than I thought it might be from a company I had never heard of before. Extremely well done scenery that does a fine job covering an area of the world that has been ignored but is well worth flying over! I liked the visuals for the FEFD area so much that I picked up the Urals and then all the other Federal Districts as well so that I can now fly over most of Russia. Been mostly flying out of UHWW and UNNT airports. All the districts in the set are well done, ORBX quality maybe even better at times. Not too hard on the frame rates using P3D5, either. However, tried to get the scenery to work with my lower end PC running P3D4 but for some strange reason it would not work. Installed the scenery but then when I went back to check it was no longer in the P3D4 scenery listings. Therefore, not totally sure about the P3D4 compatibility or why this happened to me but I mainly use P3D5 so no complaints whatsoever on that platform. I hope Sky Flyer Hanger considers adding the areas around the Caucasus Mountains near the Russian border with Georgia at some point as that would be a very cool area to fly over. Good work, Sky Flyer Hanger!

FLYING QUIXOTE - AERMACCHI MB339A/PAN P3D4-5

FLYING QUIXOTE - AERMACCHI MB339A/PAN P3D4-5

Nice aircraft but the cockpit could use much more realistic looking textures at this price point. Plenty of liveries are supplied, though. This is the first and only product by newcomer Flying Quixote. My main beef with Flying Quixote (FQ) is that you only get ONE try at installing this product ONE time. If you lose your hard drive, good luck. Maybe FQ will give you another try at an install, maybe not. And don't even think of using it on both P3D V4 along with P3D V5. Their registration system won't allow it. Most (many) companies with reg keys at least give you 3 to 5 install tries because of unavoidable issues like hard drive crashes or using software on two systems (say, laptop and desktop PC). Not FQ. Until they implement a slightly more generous licensing system I cannot recommend the FQ MB339A for P3D V4/V5. Sorry guys, but you need to change your licensing structure and loosen it up a bit. Not everyone is trying to rip you off and steal your product.
