Reviews (by Hans-Joerg)

Very nice scenery! A lot of attention to detail, as others said before. A perfect addition to my collection of Caribbean airports!

Just as good as the first European offering (Britisch Isles). I just love to be constantly looking for other traffic during my GA flights. The flight paths seem to be somehow standardized, with the nice effect that when I fly online with a friend, we both see the same hot air balloons floating by… A nice add-on that really helps to improve immersion!

Very good airport, in an absolutely amazing landscape! I came in from Myanmar in my B737 and loved the fact that I was greeted by this very nice looking airport.  The texturing might not always be top notch, but the airport is light on frame rates and has all the details needed from a pilot’s perspective. One of the terminals is even full of people, so for those inclined so, it offers the possibility to discover quite a number of details inside the building. Talking about details: there are penty of touristic highlights in Lhasa, and this scenery does a nice job modelling them.  All in all great work by Samscene - this scenery has my recommendation. If one day the textures get a small face lift and the flag in front of the terminal will be animated, I will be even happier :-) 

Bought his some time ago, and only today I was flying in UK. And what can I say: VERY NICE!!! No matter if I was flying around London, or in Scottland - there was something to see in the sky around me (besides clouds). A hot air ballon here, a helicopter there… as the developers promised, the sky became alive around me! Very immersive, particularly in VR! Highly recommended! I hope they’ll create this for all of Europe!

Very nice tower, it works well with the Hong Kong scenery by Samscene. Like others said: the building looks a bit too bright - everything else is excellent!

I can only confirm what others already said: A very nicely done, very detailed airport. It is clear that the developer(s) put a lot of effort and heart into this project. Landing at Chiang Mai is a very peasant experience with this add-on! I totally enjoyed visiting VTCC and I will surely come back! And - since I am touring Thailand right now - all other airports by Siamflight are now on my wish list!

Generally, this is quite a complete package. All the buildings are there, even some construction material on the building site east of the runway. The inside of the terminal is modeled with a lot of attention to detail, albeit without people it looks rather sterile. In general, the tarmac and buildings could use some more details. Textures are very simple and look like they were ported over from FSX. The parking positions in front of the main terminal all have plenty of bright white lines (like tyre marks), which look totally out of place and immersion-breaking - please correct that, if possible! To sum it up: much, much better than a generic airport, but for the price not enough attention to pilot side details.

Nice detail, frame rate friendly. Terminal interior is not modelled, but I‘m not interested in that anyways. Finally a good quality airport in Romania! It nicely complements the handful of existing freeware airports (like Baia Mare and Satu Mare)

Each and every knob dial or switch works (including circuit breakers). The electrical and fuel system are recreated in detail. Engine wear and tear is modeled, so it will eventually fail - if not properly taken care of. The flight model was enhanced (not sure, how much). I always liked the KingAir, and now I absolutely love it! Whenever I don‘t feel like firing up the PMDG 737, I now use the KingAir instead. IMO, the most „study level“ aircraft in it‘s class at the moment. Highly recommended!

Very difficult to learn, very difficult to fly (particularly, to land). But what an incredible cockpit! I fly in VR, and there is no other cockpit I know that feels so immersive. Highly recommended for anybody who wants a real chellange! I would have liked a more detailed manual, though.

Pro: - plenty of detail, just the right amount of clutter around the airport - the inside of the terminal has passengers. Not many, not everywhere - just enough to convince you this is not a ghost terminal - the scenery manages very well to convey the sheer size of this mega-terminal - the elevation issues reported earlier (for Navigraph users) are gone with the latest version - very friendly and reactive support by email Contra: - due to it‘s size, this scenery taxes even a fast machine. I experienced some stutter while taxiing close to the terminal. Once I got further away from it (200-300m) it became fluid again.Maybe this can be solved with some optimization. Conclusion: I recommend this scenery. The scenic approaches alone would be worth the investment! I‘m glad this mega airport is now part of my collection…

Got this scenery as a birthday gift from my wife. I tried it today in my Bell 47 - which turned out to be the ideal aircraft to discover the wonderful scenery FlyTampa has created! As others have said before: the level of detail is almost unreal - Corfu showcases, what is possible today with MSFS. I loved every minute of my flight, marveling at buildings, bell towers, medieval castles, beautiful shorelines, boats, ships - all created with incredible detail. A true work of art. Thanks FlyTampa! Highly recommended. One of the best sceneries so far for the sim. Quite possibly THE BEST!

Update: I visited again, and spent more time at the airport, exploring it in drone view. While my previous remarks are still valid, the creators spent quite a bit of effort to create a very credible and immersive terminal, complete with animated passengers, AT controllers and other assorted personalities. It was quite something to witness an argument between two guys in the control tower. These are repeating sequences, but still a lot of fun to watch after a challenging flight… The runway holding position signs with inverted runway numbers still put me off, though.

Visited EFIV last nite. Much better than the MS/Asobo generic airport, but… - the airport ground texture seems to be taken from a winter shot, because they are very bright (snowy?) - which does not really fit for summer. Also, I found the resolution to be rather low. - the runway signs at the threshold have runway numbers inverted. This should be corrected asap, because it so wrong

I own all their European Birds products, and I am very happy with them. As others said before: they really bring the sim to life! When South Oak comes out with more Birds for Europe, I will certainly buy them all…

Just one word: Excellent! In depth simulation of all systems, a LOT to learn - it will take months until I will be able to say: I know the MD-82! The sound seems ok to me, engines are really far back, so inside the cockpit I do not expect to hear them. My Butt Kicker makes sure I know they are doing their work… One thing in VR: the 3D mouse pointer turns into a double mouse pointer image when over the OHP. I contacted Leonardo and they confirmed that issue will be fixed in the next SU. A highly recommended addon for anyone who is willing to dedicate time and effort to really learning this bird. It is not meant for beginners.

Very much recommended! FS Birds adds birds (as the name implies), resulting in even better immersion in the sim. Of course you see more birds if you fly low and slow, but even in an airliner it is quite something to suddenly see flocks of doves hovering over the runway or other birds zipping by during approach. I will certainly purchase all European bird add-ons as they are published - Europe is my playground in the sim, and I love to see it populated with life - especially it’s airborne variants! I did not encounter any adverse side effects with this add-on, in particular no noticeable impact on frame rates.

I very much like the concept: Not as detailed as a full-fledged add-on, but at a very nice price. Since I was doing a trip around the Mediterranean Sea, I was happy when this airport came out. There is not interior modelling, and the land side of the airport is rudimentary, but the main terminal is quite striking! All in all a very enjoyable experience when seen from the cockpit. And in the end, that is what really counts! Excellent work, I hope the designers will make more airports like this!

I bought the two-seater version and I can confirm it is a great plane. It mystifies me, though, why - as an existing customer - I should pay again for essentially the same plane. I would have expected a free upgrade or a reduced upgrade price! I admit Im disappointed about this.

Not very detailed, but a nice scenery nevertheless. I needed a stop-over on my way from Sarajevo to Palermo, and LIBD fit that bill quite nicely. The airport is close to the see, so expect scenic approaches…

Update: With the latest version, the ILS now works as expected. 5 stars from me now for this beautiful scenery!

Incredible attention to detail! This airport really is alive, in the sense of the word! Passenger walking around everywhere in and in front of the terminal, making phon calls or just waiting impatiently for their flight, flags moving in the wind… just very, very nice to watch! Only with the ATC tower FlyTampa went over the top: the control room is empty all what’s left are two bottles of Ouzo 12 (probably empty as well). LGAV is another product worthy of the fame FlyTampa achieved over the years as a top notch scenery maker…

A beautiful rendition of this scenic airport. Incredible attention to detail, that really brings the airport to life. On top, many landmarks around the airport and all over the city of Rio are included. That really makes the product complete, because it is not just an airport, but a whole area. I spent an hour today just flying around this scenic place, discovering all the incredible and famous vistas (for me it was a trip down memory lane - I visited Rio 30 years ago!). Well worth the investment - 5 stars from me!

BeautifullY made plane, inside and outside alike. I love to fly it because it requires almost constant attention from the pilot, imho ideal for a simulator (else, I would get bored). After the update, the ILS issue was fixed, so the CRJ now behaves as expected. Difficult to master, but pure joy to fly once you do! Highly recommended.

What can I say? A work of art! Absolutely amazing attention to detail - they not only created the airport in painstaking detail, but also included many of the landmarks in the area. My respecet to the makers of this beautiful piece of software! If only all MSFS airports were as well made as this…

Beautifully made scenery, and it adds the second runway that is missing in MSFS. I’ve been many times to Minsk, so I can say: this scenery looks very accurate, both tarmac and street side! I only struggle with the ILS approaches - none seems to work as expected (I tried with the stock TBM930 and the CRJ). Precision landings with low visibility are not possible. I use Navigraph.

Very pleased with this scenery! Lots of attention to detail that brings the airport to life. At the same time frame rate friendly. I look forward to more Turkish airports by SceneryTR!

A must-have for Kai Tak lovers! Very good detail and good performance on my system. The scenery integrates nicely - and it works flawlessly with the HK City scenery by Samsoft (just install the exclusion file from Samsoft website)

Incredibly big and incredibly detailed! A joy to use as a starting point for sight seeing trips to HK
