There are very few developers who produce military airfields and most are of low quality. I purchased this on sale and consider it a really good deal. Though it's not Orbx or FlyTampa quality scenery, it's good enough. Combine it with the RFN AI package and it really comes to life. I wouldn't buy it at full price to be honest, but on sale it's definitely worth having.
