How realistic do you want a scenery to be?

How realistic do you want a flight simulator scenery to be?
I am all for realism but it should be smart realism. I absolutely hate big difference in scenery resolution - for example sharp buildings or trees set on otherwise fuzzy ground. If things don't blend well - it actually IMHO diminishes realism. Ultimately I would prefer scenery that would gradually change resolution - the closer to the airport, the higher resolution scenery.

I would exchange every detail in a scenery for a sloped runway!
You cannot have Ai Traffic with sloped runway I think.

strange as it AI dont seem to mind sloped taxi ways. One of the German Airports from aerosoft has a slope taxiway that goes over a motorway (freeway) and they dont seem to fussed+ :( But yes sloped runways would be awsome. I dont supposed for a second than MSflight would allow it but who knows.

Satellite imagery is surprisingly frame-rate friendly. If I could have good high-quality satellite imagery + airport buildings and large city buildings, then I would be quite happy! In other words, if tileproxy just didn't result in a mess of blurries after about 20 minutes, things would be great!There's really only three scenery requirements for realism while flying heavies:satellite imageryairport and city buildingstrafficWell, I guess good clouds, sky, and water are important to. Ok, everything! But really, satellite imagery is the only thing truly missing at this point. Default FSX ground scenery is such an eyesore!

There are some good companies like Orbx that make excellent scenery with satellite imagery for large area.
