    Five places to fly for peace, quiet and plenty of bracing North Sea air.

    These five airports on the islands of Baltrum, Borkum, Juist, Langeoog and Norderney are all part of the East Frisian Islands off the coasts of Germany and Holland. Borkum is the largest of the islands, located just 30 kilometres from the mainland it is Germany’s most North-Westerly point. Although in the past it was for Whalers and pirates it is now part of a National Park, as indeed are all the islands, and is an unspoilt place to escape to and then spend the week flying from island to island. Borkum airport, which is one metre above sea level, has one asphalt runway exactly one kilometre long and two grass runways just short of a kilometre each.

    Baltrum is known as the sleeping beauty of the North Sea and is the smallest of the islands, whereas Juist is the longest at 17 Kilometres and is only 7 kilometres from the mainland. Norderley has special status with UNESCO World Heritage Status and Langeoog makes up the fifth island. Each of these islands boasts its own airport, ideal for island hoping with twenty combinations for different take-off and landing places.

    The East Frisian Island Airports have been designed for high compatibility and includes photo real blending with Default and Orbx Global. It’s also DX10 compatible.

    This is a great scenery pack and represents excellent value for money. You get five different airfields, which are perhaps not exceptional individually, but together they represent such diversity, that you essentially get one big adventure pack. It is a blast to fly from one airfield to the next and see what challenge and/or unique features await you there. From the ridiculously short paved runway at Baltrum, to the people camping at Borkum, the little boat-yard at Juist, a huge lighthouse at Norderney, to the restaurant and tree-lined taxi-way at Langeoog, every airfield has something unique and interesting to discover. The buildings are very detailed and some have visible signs of a damp problem – talk about realistic! The ground textures are superb and look very realistic. The airfields also blend in perfectly with FSX default or ORBX scenery and there was no detectible impact on frame rates in FSX on my system. As with some of SIM720’s other sceneries, I’m not totally convinced by the grass textures next to the runway, but you can turn it off in the product’s control panel. I just had so much fun with the East Frisian Island package and think it will be on my hard drive much longer than some larger single airfield packages. Plus the support at SIM720 was exceptional when I had a problem with a “stuck” paypal payment. The company provides a telephone number on its website and you can actually talk to a human being to resolve a problem – that is an unheard of luxury in today’s world of e-mail and forum-only support.
