  • In anticipation of alpilotx' HD mesh freeware, I have checked some more of Tom Curtis' payware airports for Western Canada, which are part of his packages "Inside Passage" and "Canadian Rockies".

You got the brilliant truscenery payware scenery on the map, but i suggest you also look into the freeware they've done in Finland. It's definitely top-notch quality and I think belong on the list :smile:

Thanks. I had a look into their freeware, but decided to only add EFSI Seinäjoki.

Added the magnificient CZST Stewart (rating: Very good) to the payware category of the map.

In regard of CZST's very high quality, I decided to reduce the rating of some of the older airports in this region from "good" to "okay".

 

If the map strived for objectivity, some airports formerly rated "okay" should actually be removed. But the map is subjective, so I kept these airports with a different icon (a gray circle) and a remark that says:

 

"I like it, but probably not okay by today's standards".

Thx for your excellent contribution Mario!

In my opinion there are no good sceneries for these airports available for X-Plane at the moment. I am aware of freeware, but don't like them that much.

But those two are already in X-Plane 10 Global, by Aerosoft...

Yeah, but they are also not very good.

 

SkyHighSim LYBE - Nikola Tesla Airport.

 

Is this for X-Plane?

 

Edit: I guess you mean the XP9 conversion of this FS9 scenery available at the .org? Going to download and test it; I have some XP9 sceneries on my map, maybe this can get an "okay" rating.

I don't know how good the scenery is, but author told me it works on XP10. Although part of airport is under reconstruction and the scenery is a little bit outdated, I believe it represents LYBE very well. You can try it and decide I guess :smile:
