I also have another Phuket Scenery by Orbx and I will be honest and say that as good as Orbx Phuket is, Siamflight version is way more detailed significantly better.
Also, Siamflight version has the updated taxiway where it goes all the way to the end of runway 27, where else Obrx version has the older layout where you would have to backtrack to runway 27.
I have many of their sceneries and this is another masterpiece by Siamflight.
