Reviews (by Les)

This was a needed airport for aircraft like the Longitude or FlightFX's Citation X. This rendition looks great. Kudos to the developer.

First off, the model looks great and it has a decent flight model but after the third update I'm not sure this will get better: 1. Loud AC fan noise which overpowers everything else 2. Speed brake sound when low idle in flight 3. cartoonish switches in flight deck 4. Doesn't hold proper speed when at cruise thrust in cruise 5. Tablet is unmovable in the cockpit. I hope it improves over time but as of now I've uninstalled it.

Great airport rendition. The only downside is the whole Ocean Reef Cay needs high resolution satellite imagery which is not a fault of this scenery it just brings out the need for Asobo to address this. A Google overlay would just kill performance on top of a large file download size.

This is a very accurate version of this airport. The performance of the scenery is great especially in VR. This is amazing seeing the terminal interior is fully done.

After a few flights with this aircraft I'm liking it more and more so I thought I'd update my initial review. The flight model seems fine in all aspects of flight except for the ground handling. Sounds are not as bad as I initially thought. It's just the external sounds need work. The cabin has few clickable options but it looks great just the same especially with the mod for the overhead ceiling color. I'd give this 5 stars if the two updates I mentioned get fixed. Not bad after a little time with this bird.

This aircraft turns like a brick on the ground, feels more like a heavy aircraft versus a light jet in flight, and the external sounds seem to have been taken from a much larger jet than the Phenom 100 (not everyone can do sounds). Internal sounds feel off as well. No real options for clickable items in the cabin. This could be a great effort after a few patches but the initial version outside of visuals (Edit: Landing lights on the ground externally looks terrible) leaves allot to be desired.

I highly recommend this one. Looks like allot of work was put in to make sure performance of this airport wasn't an issue in the sim. I had a freeware version of this airport that was far more taxing on framerates. Outside of that everything else is well done. A big 'Thank You' do the developers.

Looks great but very bad in the area of performance in the sim. As others have said, hopefully there's an update coming soon.

I was at this base a few times when I was in the Navy back in the early 90's. This scenery nails it on how it used to look. It was a sight to behold with all the F-14's on the flight line. Evening launches were a blast to watch. I wasn't expecting such well researched scenery as this is.

Decent job overall. The Florida National Guard parking spot placement needs an adjustment to center parked aircraft correctly under the open hangers but that's about it. As I'm a fan of the FLNG I was hoping to see some static F-15's parked there that's how I noticed off center parking lines.

In sim performance after a few updates is still a problem around the main terminal. I wanted to give this five stars.

Been waiting for this from France VFR since MSFS came out. The only reason I didn't give this 5 stars is Nice's whole boardwalk/beach front is still default for the most part. Where's the La Negresco hotel or other well know buildings on the beach front? France VFR needs an update to cover the whole waterfront of Nice which is the crown jewel of a scenery package like this. You can't do this area and not fully realize Nice's waterfront. In contrast Cannes is done very well, go figure. Maybe it's because the airport France VFR fully developed is sitting right there off the water. Please update Nice and this will be 5 stars.

I was a little put off initially by the difficulty of the flight model of this aircraft. Once I did research on the real bird it's justified. The P40B was the second rendition of the P40 and struggled to get going in the real world. The P40B was relegated to trainer status because of the problems. The P40 really didn't come into its own until the 'F' variant was released. The Flying Tigers actually flew the next version up from the 'B' variant. So, this bird is realistic in the difficulty and skill took to fly it. Hat's off to Big Radials in staying true to what they were depicting here.

This product has received four updates as to this writing. This is a great rendition of the 'F' variant of the P40. Big Radials did a great job with the 'B' model in how difficult it was to fly, and this version shows the progression to the most refined version that didn't see all the glory it should have in WWII (the P51 took priority in manufacturing). Great job IniBuilds on bringing us the 'F' variant, the best version of the P-40 produced in the real world.

Performance is not good on my system. The terminal seems to swallow up the framerates. The ground textures look like a chess game around the terminal and taxiways. An update is sorely needed.

Great scenery for an often overlooked airport. Great job!

Great scenery as usual but has a hard time loading textures creating stutters as you fly into the airport and taxi around the terminal areas.

This was the one I've been requesting for awhile. Amazing job. Do to this airport's location it's easily one of the best GA airports in Hawaii for the views on takeoff and approach. It's also challenging to get in and out of the airport. I'm glade it's finally represented properly in FS2020.

I was waiting on this one to be released by someone (hopefully Montego Bay and Caymon Intl are next). Great effort, I only wish they added parking spots to the Provo ramp on the northern end of the airport for VIP departures/arrivals. Signature's ramp only has one spot to choose from, go figure. Outside of that great job!

Great scenery! The only problem is if you choose different approaches and runways in the default flight planer that isn't offered by default when you setup your flight it crashes the sim. Hopefully an update will be out to resolve this soon.

AH did an amazing job on this one. Anyone wanting a study level P51 here it is...

After the first update (v1.02) this product is coming into it's own. Up from my previous review all issues seem to have been addressed that were reported. From my vantage point the only thing left that still needs work is the prop texture. I would give this a higher rating if it wasn't for that prop texture that I have to look at constantly when flying this bird. Others have reported the beacon light still shines in the cabin and external model cowling work still needs some adjustment but at this point this is a winner. If you want to see what the early Bonanza was like before the G36 this is it.

This bird has great potential but has some glaring issues that need patching: 1. Oversized model when sitting next to comparable aircraft 2. Uses the default G36 sounds (this trend needs to stop) 3. Night lighting needs to be improved. Cockpit too dark, no taxi lights, and landing lights don't extend far enough when viewed from the cockpit 4. Knobs in the cockpit reversed like the parking brake This will be a great add-on if patched. We'll see how this new developer does going forward.

There was a rumor that this almost didn't get released because of the Flying Iron version. Seeing that this version was the very first Spitfire to be produced and the other offering is a much later version all I can say is I'm glade AH changed their mind. These two Spitfires are very different aircraft based on the era they were produced. That being said this bird is amazing all around. I highly recommend this for anyone that's into WWII aircraft, WWII era fighters, historians, tail dragger enthusiast or those who just love aviation. I could got on and on. This will go down as one of the more amazing offerings for FS2020. Great Job Aeroplane Heaven and a big thank you for bringing this to us!!!

Another great airport from this team. I hope Princeville, PHNL, and PHKO are in the cards from this developer down the road.

This is a nice one for a few different reasons. Early Cessna design is well represented, slow flight over amazing areas with an amazing cockpit to look out of (my first flight was out of Sedona at dusk), and an overall well represented model. This one hits on all cylinders for me.

All I'm going to say about this one is I hope they do French Polynesia, that's how good this is...

We are on v5 of this add-on and it's solid! Spray works both inside and out (you have to fill it before takeoff), flight model solid (they got the tail dragger aspect correct), and the cockpit/visual model is spot on both inside and out. Comments were made about how the pilot looks in the cockpit from external view but after reviewing some real world pics it looks about right. The only thing left that's a sore spot for me is internal lighting at night in the cockpit and when opening the side windows you don't hear the wind rush sound like in other add-ons like the JF Arrow. Also the cockpit canopy still doesn't open. If they get these few items addressed this is easily a 5 star add-on. Great job so far, looking forward to v6.

Reviewing this again after v4. The flight model issues seem all but resolved. The pilot height in the cockpit when looking at the plane from external view needs to get addressed (already reported by another reviewer here). Lighting (internal/external landing and Nav lights) needs to be fixed as no lights work on this aircraft. Also the canopy doesn't open. I still can't get the smoke to deploy and based on what others have reported you should be able to see the smoke both inside and outside the aircraft. What's reported is external smoke is all that's working. If they can get these few items fixed this bird will be a solid aircraft to get.

This developer has done it again. Another great airport. I hope they do Princeville at some point.

This is one I wanted to see done in awhile with decent detail. Hope this developer does justice to Princeville airport down the road.

They did a great job on this one. A must have for Hawaii GA flyers.

Great little airport on the island of Maui. This was one I've been wanting to see done well in awhile and here it is.

Outstanding rendition of KTEB. A must buy for any VIP pilots wanting a rendition of the New York/Manhattan better half gateway to the world.

Great rendition of this airport, lot's of little details. These guys are doing a great job in FS2020 with not only this but their other sceneries.

Great rendition of the airport not far from my home. For those interested in the Orlando area this is a must have. A personal request of mine from this developer would be KISM by Disney and Daytona!

This is a great rendition of Luton. I'm highly pleased with this airport by a great developer.

Great scenery for an airport that's often overlooked serving an historic City. Hope this developer does airports like KISM and Daytona...

This wasn't working for me at first but after reporting this to the developer and a re-download days later it's working for me and looking good. Great job FSXscenery!. You might want to change your name as what your doing in FS2020 looks better than the FSX days.

Great scenery. Anyone interested in this area won't be disappointed.

This one surprised me so I had to buy it. I was pleasantly surprised. Anyone interested in another Keys airport get this one.

This developer is doing a great job with scenery for FS2020. This scenery is one of them. I recommend this scenery to anyone who wants a decent rendition of KPBI.

Others have reported what they've found but for me this scenery is great. The city sky line is included which some developers leave out not understanding the area scenery is a whole part of the approach experience into an airport. Since discovering this country in looking up where Al Jazeera was based and seeing how amazing this city looks in comparison to Dubai I've wanted detailed scenery for this airport. The new airport is brand new meaning anyone who get's this package will have to move their AI with Traffic Tools to fly in and out of this airport. Just like Dubai this airport and it's city is a newly created modern city. This rendition is one to get. I hope they do OBBI next leaving all the major Persian Gulf airports done in detail (Kuwait City sky line needs some work though). Anyway Great scenery...

Great scenery. Very impress with the detail I just wish they covered the water front with hotels and detailed scenery. This would add so much to the approach and fits with the airport as a whole.

Like what others have said. This is top notch scenery.

Great representation of KIAH. You will have to do a little work with the Afcad file like add more GA spots so GA (if you have extra GA AI) isn't parking at the gates and cargo ramps. Those with older AI setups need to add NWA, NWAX, and COAX gates. I had to add Air Canada and British Airways at the international terminal but other than that it's great. Very framerate friendly and looks good.

This is a great effort especially when pared with Latin VFR's KMIA.

Those wanting a decent DC9 in FS9 this is the one to get. VOR to VOR legacy flying at it's best...

Outstanding!!! My water effects are very close to FSX's standard. For the record I like the Realistic option over the Photorealistic choice. This add-on is very well done.

After reviewing the screenshots here on SimMarket again (because something wasn't jiving with what I'm seeing on my system) I realized that those shots must have been from the first build of this add-on. The VC in this release (which is what you get now) has been very much updated since those screenshots were taken. The flight deck looks much more realistic in it's present incarnation... CLS needs to update their marketing shots.

I first thought this was a rehash of Overland's Airbus series which can be bought right here at Simmarket. What I found is totally different. This package is nothing short of outstanding. The VC seems to have been seriously enhanced putting this add-on right up there with the best VC around. You have cockpit glass simulated, everything is retextured from the seats to the walls, and the overhead panel among other things is fully clickable. Performance is outstanding in FS9 (I can't speak for FSX). The autopilot is correctly simulated to Airbus specifications so there's no rehash of the default operation here. You will have to add the Airbus callouts which is available for free on Flightsim.com. The Overland package is more of a 'lite' offering which is what I thought this was yet this model is very much in between hardcore and moderate. The FDE is much improved and has the correct feel for a heavy aircraft of this type. The sounds are nothing short of the best around. A good example is you can hear the differences in the engine types in the cockpit. The sounds put you in the cockpit instead of in the passenger seat. The 4 engine A340's cockpit sits farther forward from the engines than the A330 and you can tell the difference from the sound set. Night lighting is great although I wish CLS would start modeling dome lighting. All in all a very outstanding product (trust me the screenshots don't do this product justice).

Is it me or is there allot of autogen missing around the airport when looking toward the city of Tokyo???
