Thanks for the screen shots you help me make my decision. No need for a upgrade right now.

FreeMeshX + TopoSim payware for Alaska and Hawaii is on my setup and has saved me money for almost identical quality. TopoSim is having a 50% off sale now and FreeMeshX just released America closed beta.

Can someone with FSG NGU oder FS Global 2010 try Phuket Intl. airport? Is the elevation for you incorrect as well? I tried with their AFM tool but its getting worse when I using it. Weird is, even when I disable FSG NGU the elevation is still wrong.

the price of almost $100 is absurd imho....even more expensive than orbx ftx, but make minimal visual differences. i'd rather stick with the old ultimate.

Minimal differences from default yeah but not from a mesh, was confusing if this is what you meant. World mesh is important, if you have the money then Global Ultimate NG is the way to go, I am on a budget with all the expensive addons and move up to P3D v4 so I went freemeshX and Toposim Alaska/Hawaii for full world coverage almost as high resolution as Global Ultimate.

Are you happy with the FMX USA?

Any chance someone could post a shot of a short final on KVJI before and after using the flattening tool? I'd like to see how well the flattening tool works...

Does the AFM2 flattening tool work automatically like AEC does in Vector?

 

Or do you have to apply AFM2 to each airport, one by one?

One by one. The AFM2 tool is a bit more elaborate and tends to do a better job of evening out the terrain mesh surrounding the airport. AEC is good enough for small airports.
