What is everyone's top five airports in terms of FPS and quality

[ErichB 3,651]

I'm trying to select five airports to buy for P3D.  Up until now I've only used default and ported over some FSX variants, mostly UK2000.  I definitely want Flytampa's Dubai.   Which others would you recommend. I don't mond where they are.

My list:

1. FlyTampa: Dubai
2. FlyTampa: Copenhagen
3. FlyTampa: Montreal
4. FlyTampa: Toronto
5. Aerosoft: Mega Airport London Heathrow X (Great on performance when you consider the area it's located within)

... And yes, I do like FlyTampa.

 

They all deliver brilliant performance along with excellent quality.

FlyTampa Toronto

FlyTampa Montreal

FSDT KJFK

FlightBeam KDEN

FSDT KLAX

 

Just as good but not in a payware list:

freeware Sunskyjet KPHL

 

 

FlyTampa are pretty darn good

Completely forgot FlightBeam - they're top notch too.

 

.. As good as they are, though, I am fairly certain they never did LAX

Flightbeam didn't make LAX... Don't you mean FSDT KLAX?

Could you expand on the brilliant performance bit, and let me know what kind of FPS you're getting? I'm getting around 16 at Toronto and I'm not at all happy with it. GTX780 + 3770K here.

Mdesign Domodedovo deserves a mention.  Great frames and visuals.

 

Aside from that, yes, FlyTampa all the way for me.

 

I don't "do" FSDT or Flightbeam, as I don't "do" Virtuali Addon Manager / Couatl.

I'm not sure what to tell you: I'm running a 4790k @ 4.6 GHz with a GTX 970. Getting a solid 30-40 FPS in the PMDG 777 (P3D 2.5).

If you would be so kind as to PM me, or post here, your settings? Including AA and what not? I'm really struggling with setting up P3D.

1. Flightbeam KPHX-Sky Harbor

2. FlyTampa KMDW-Midway (Love those white knuckle short stops)

3. Flightbeam KDEN-Denver

4. FSDT KLAS-Las Vegas

5. Taxi2Gate-KMCO-Orlando (For those 15 minute leisurely taxi strolls)

Wow, thanks! 

I'm super chuffed you did that, honestly. Will try right away and report back! Thanks!

Everything from FlightBeam and FSDreamteam. The guys know how to make performancefriendly airports.

I do not play an FPS simulator without any care for detail

I play a flight simulator and I am not as fussy about fps

Okay, so, my FPS is hovering around 20, but it's butter smooth and that's all that matters.

To each his own. I found 14-16FPS very jittery and not pleasing to the eye. 20-22 is much, much smoother and nicer.

But, like I said, we all enjoy our simulators differently
