Reviews (by Carl Martin)

First I just wanted to forget all about this soundpack. However, in respect for my fellow simmers I give a review. This package is simply terrible! Why? It is no better than default AI sound. Neither between idle and full throttle nor full reverse you will here any differnce. Internal there is a teeny-weeny difference in loudnes between idle and full throttle or reverse. And it surely doesn't sound like T56. The start and shut down sounds more like jet engines and in addition those sounds seem to "live their own lifes" compared to the modelled AC. The CaptainSim original sound is waaay better! In fact it is rather unfair comparing the CaptainSim sound set with this terrible package. It is sad to experience such a bad product at the flightsim market.

Boris has done it again! Also with the smaller bonus airport projects that are included one gets incredible much for the price offered. Like the Quito scenery Boris has once again showed that not only has he a very good grasp of the scenery building techniques but he is very artistic as well. It doesn't mean that the sceneries are fictional-like, but he proves a sucsess with every scenery to create a feeling of both magic and reality when stepping/flying into them. The nice and, I would add from a pilot's point of view, cool surroundings in Ecuador certainly brings a lot of additional exitement as well. As allways Boris, you get the five stars! Let all those you will get sprinkle down on you - congratulations !

So far I have only used this product with FS9. And WOOAAWWW, what a great experience! When ,as one example, flying through clouds at dawn/dusk/night the clouds in front of you get flashed up by the light beams and are getting dark again as you are passing through them. This is made with effects that is so near to reality that it gives an awsome feeling of the speed. During such sequences of the flight just like a reflex I almost start jumping in my chair the way we usually do due to turbulence. I bought the mega pack in order to use the package with FSX when I decide to re-install it and leave FS9. As the mega-pack price cncerns, I think it is worth it even when I use it just with FS9. But when the time comes for FSX I allready have this wonderful product ready for use.

This is awesome ! Following the special approach procedure into TNCM I look out of the window from my MD11 and see the vehicles move smooth and realistic in a scenery that looks so real. Then you see the boats and the track of those of them that are moving. The number of details are incredible high. How is it possible to make such a sceney and still keep the FPS performance at a fantastic high level ? Magic ? I guess so ! For those who happily have invested in Aerosoft AES, will together with FlyTampa TNCM think that it's not "as real as it gets" any more - it's REAL !

I have used the program since it was launched. This product is good. The whole concept with credits is good. The features and number of airports served by AES are getting progressively better and increased as totally free upgrades are provided us from time to time. Especially at some airports, like Aerosoft's Mega EDDF and FlyTampa TNCM it's getting creepy real. This program makes you pay x-tra attention to your pilot responsibilities and taking the whole flight seriously. No doubt; 5 stars ! And 5 stars to Oliver Pabst that have served us flightsimmers for so many years now, and most of it as freeware. Paying now is a pleasure.
