March 18, 200323 yr Hello,what commercial or freeware product represents the biggest and most detailed Airport in FS ? With things like working Follow-Me Car, supply traffic, push-back Truck, moving Gate etc.My question is not about best framerates or a favourite location, it's just to see what is technical possible with FS today.
March 18, 200323 yr Hi there,there's a lot to choose from, but as far as big freeware airports go, this has to be one of my favourites:http://www.cyul2002.com/cyul2002_en.htmlFor a more exotic location, try this:http://pages.infinit.net/mkaram/Leb2002/evolution.htmHaving just missed St.Patricks day, you could check out Ireland here:http://www.ifsd.ieThose are just a few of the excellent offerings out there, but it's a start....Cheers,Gosta.http://hifi.avsim.net/activesky/images/wxrebeta.jpg
March 18, 200323 yr Moderator A386,Gary Summons' UK Airports represents the most detailed British airports given that some compromises have to be made for an acceptable frame rate. My own local airport - Manchester - is a very good example of what Gary has achieved.Visit here for more info... www.uk2000scenery.bizland.com/puplic/products.htmCheers, Ray (Cheshire, England).

March 19, 200323 yr My buddy Ray is so correct. Garry's UK2000 airports are just excellent. His EGLL (Heathrow), is just OUTSTANDING, IMHO. Now on to others. SimFlyers which is also paywhere has some of the best airports: KIAD, KDFW, KLAX, KPHL, KMCO, KEWR, to just name a few. Frankfurt is awesome. Have not tried their new Pearson (sp) Toronto scenery. They have committed themselves to great stuff. GAP is also great airports. Lago's Honolulu International (PHNL), is also just GREAT. It is done in GMAX and is AWESOME detail with little if any frame rate hit. My good buddy: Harald Krause Harald KrauseE-mail Address(es): [email protected] done a wonderful job on Denver International Airport (kden). Even better it is FREEWARESamsoft has done some great scenery for South East Asia.The real deal is to just go through AVSIM and FlightSim.com and look at what is available where you want to go.CheersBob
March 19, 200323 yr Hi Bob,I have SimFlyer's Toronto - just like their other stuff it's excellent.Cheers,Gosta.http://hifi.avsim.net/activesky/images/wxrebeta.jpg
March 19, 200323 yr Hi, you can check 4 (or is it 5?) Japanese airports (Narita and Kansai is included) by Mr. Miyazaki. I forgot the exact file name, bust just search under the name of Miyazaki and they should pop up.japangg
March 19, 200323 yr >SimFlyers which is also paywhere >has some of the best airports: Warning - Simflyers has grossly exaggarated green taxi lights making them stand out like some sort of Christmas tree. Way too strong. For someone who cares primarily about night realism (I fly 80% at night) this is a huge turn off.Just an honest information since you won't find anything on the subject on their site.I concur that Gary Summons' work is of highest quality. And of course one should not forget German Airports - probably the most acclaimed (and highest rated) airport add-on series.Michael J. Michael J.
