Recently purchased this Airport and I am very happy with what RS has created. This business in my opinion seems to be the only one producing high-quality scenery for the Caribbean region for Xplane 11+. Beyond the airport, and most importantly for me, is the clarity of the island, reefs, and vegetation, and if you have visited this part of the world you will appreciate it even more. The small Caribbean islands are underrepresented in the Xplane community and RS is doing a great job to fill the gap. I am looking forward to similar scenery across the region in time to come. A couple of things I would say need attention are some way of creating better textures of the terrain up close when at the airport, (tricky with ortho) hence 4 stars, more activity on the ground at the airport, and the ability to view your aircraft from inside the terminal. Lastly, a dream would be animated sea on the final approach but not sure if this is reasonably achievable and the frame rates were 30+ even when maxed out with RTX2070.
