November 26, 200916 yr Author Moderator Wow!!! When it rains it pours!!! :( 2 Great sceneries in a matter of 48hrs!! I only wish my wallet could keep up,Thanks for the info!!I agree. Last week I got the two Lionheart planes that were on sale for $15 each. Then this week GEX Europe, FlyTampa Grenadines and Boston. It's like Christmas has come early this year. Plus I still have KDFW and PHNL comming from FSDT to look forward to, as well as the ORBX Pacific Northwest package due out soon. Avsim Board of Directors | Avsim Forums Moderator
November 26, 200916 yr Yeah,I concur!! FSDT's PHNL looks fantastic and nearly complete.Island hopping will be alot of fun!

I'm looking forward to the FSDT scenies also.

November 26, 200916 yr Can someone who has purchased this new KBOS scenery comment on how hard of a hit you are getting in FPS compared to default KBOS? Thanks in advance.Alex C
November 26, 200916 yr Virtually no fps hit for me. Maybe <5% if you want to be precise. Runs great from all approaches, even 22& 33L straight at the city Regards, Max (YSSY) i7-12700K | Corsair Vengeance LPX 64GB 3600MHz DDR4 | Gigabyte RTX4090 24Gb | Gigabyte Z690 AORUS ELITE DDR4 | Corsair HX1200 PSU
November 26, 200916 yr Two questions:1. Is AES support going to be free for this version of BOS just like the free version was? 2. Would you recommend staying with the free version or switching to the pay version? $38 is pretty steep for a once free version of the scenery. Danny

Would you recommend staying with the free version or switching to the pay version? $38 is pretty steep for a once free version of the scenery.That what makes america so great. You can choose not to purchase or choose just to use the freewre version. But for the price you're getting two very very very good versions of KBOS.Bill M Bill McIntyre Asus StrixB650E-F Gamer, AMD Ryzen 9 7900X3D, Corsair Titanium DDR5 64GB, Samsung 990 PRO-4TB M.2, (4) 2TB SSD's, Corsair H1150i liquid cooler, RTX 2080TI Founders Edition, (2) LG 34" HD Curved Monitor, Sound Blaster Audigy X, 1Kw PC Power & Cooling Power Supply, Corsair Obsidian Full tower Case.

November 27, 200916 yr Heh. You won't believe who is manning the control tower!Giggity. Kevin D. Greene
November 27, 200916 yr Wow!!! When it rains it pours!!! :( 2 Great sceneries in a matter of 48hrs!! I only wish my wallet could keep up,Thanks for the info!!That is for sure. I have been waiting for this one for a while. I bought GEX Europe last week so I think that I will have to wait till next month in order to get this masterpiece. Mike Keigley
November 27, 200916 yr I have been waiting for this one for a while.Yeah, me too. This is where I live and this is the airport that I do most of my simming out of. I've spent a lot of time at this airport travelling for work, so I'm intimately familiar with it.This scenery package is very well done ... up to the usual FlyTampa standards. There are a few issues (such as non-functional jetways) but overall I'm pleased with it. Well worth it if this is the airport you sim out of. Lots of the surrounding harbor is also included so approaches look very realistic.Cheers, Kevin D. Greene
