Der Flughafen ist OK. Das dynamische Licht funktioniert sehr gut, die Landebahnen und Taxiway sehen realistisch aus.
Die Gebäude ganz nah am Flughafen sehen nicht so toll aus, die sind nämlich ganz miserabel umgesetzt. Ich würde normalerweise dafür 2 Sterne abziehen, allerdings im Bezug auf den Preis (12,50€) kann man nicht so viel verlangen, daher nur 1 Stern weniger.
I have been to Esenboga many times, and it looks very realistic. I am very impressed, and the performance is great too. That the Ataturk museum, which is located in the city south of the airport and visible when approaching to the north, is a great detail. Fantastic value. Thanks a lot.
Just had the opportunity to test LTAC. Stunning scenery which includes high res textures, and not a single building is not omitted, many SODE objects including jetways and high res photographic seasonal terrain textures are extraordinary.
