Very accurately modeled airport. I was there recently and with the exception of the construction crane at one of the towers, everything was pretty much as I remember it. The outside of the terminal is very impressive. I was able to trace my exact route out of the airport, even the same busses that I were on are there in the parking lot. The ramp seems to be just as it is in reality. A very simple airport rendered very nicely. I honestly didnt notice much of a frame hit on my somewhat outdated system even with the trees and very beautiful vegetation. Along with some nice terrain mesh, its a very beautiful place to fly into and out of. As stated by others, AES support would make it perfect. But, the ground vehicles and the other equipment supplied with the airport along with adding a nice Vietnam Airlines AI package makes the ramp plenty busy looking. Great airport for a great price!
The scenery is just one word , awesome. Everything is perfectly detailed. Just love flying there now. If AES is supported it would be ** no words to describe ** but i will leave it to the developer to decide :)
Buy it you wont regret it.
I purchased this scenery because I enjoy Asia and only now are we beginning to see some good airports for this part of the world. Screenshots are good but the scenery I have to say is excellent and looks better than the screenshots! With a dual core CPU and 2GB of RAM I get a steady 38-42fps all around the airport area. The author has done a tremendous job of describing the airport and its surroundings and the detail is superb. The grass areas upon which the runways are situated are extremely well rendered, almost photostyle but in a very sharp, crisp textured way. The airport fencing is good and the Terminal area is wonderful! Excellent use of colours that accurately reflect the real Terminal. The airport traffic is dynamic and well done as are the cars driving up and down the main airport road leading to the highway, complete with its "Speghetti" junction just south of the airport. There are extended textures describing the outer airport area and the village buildings are very nicely done but without the photostyle ground texturing. I have Ultimate Terrain and Ground Environment Pro installed into my FS9 setup and whilst the transition from the author's scenery area into the GE Pro terrain is not accurate, its close and is acceptable. This little airport is an example of what can be achieved by authors who do not necessarily have the capabilities of FlyTampa or ImagineSim but who do know their stuff! Its one of the nicest small airport sceneries that I have ever seen and here's hoping that the author will consider extending the terrain around the airport by updating the landclass and adding the city of Hanoi in all its glory! However, if you want to visit Vietnam in FS, this is THE place to start! Can't recommend it enough - great work! Lee James, West Sussex UK - December 2010
