Thoughts on Aerosoft Frankfurt v2 Professional?

Featured Replies

I'm looking at adding Aerosoft's Frankfurt professional to P3Dv4. Anyone who owns it that can give an honest opinion about it? I'm on the fence.

I own it, and had the non-professional one. I like it, but I don't use AI Traffic as I only fly on VATSIM so I can't tell you how that works.  I have also only been to the airport two or three times, and it's either pull away from the gate or into one, I don't do too much other than look at the eye candy.

Best wishes.

System Specs:  I9-13900KF, NVIDIA 4070TI, Quest 3, Multiple Displays, Lots of TERRIFIC friends, 3 cats, and a wonderfully stubborn wife.

Gives me slightly better fps than the v2 version.

Great looking airport with very nice city skyline next to it.

I use it icw Nico Kaan's Live Traffic which makes it very realistic.

regards, Gerard

V2 : taxiën towards the gate

I think AS EDDF is really worth it. One of the better sceneries.

Gerard,

Is Live Traffic worth the time and money?  Sorry for the thread creep.

I also have EDDF and have no issues with it.  I'm in and out of EDDF a lot, mostly at night and always on the freight side. :smile:

I would not want to fly without it. Flying in the landing queue at final is a wonderfull experience, knowing that those aircraft are really there at that moment ...

At this moment I am beta testing.

Just at part of the approach in the rain at this very moment :

Sounds promising amidst a lot of folks who have a lack of love for aerosoft in general. I also have the new Stuttgart and am frankly underwhelmed with it so I was hesitant about this one.

- Aaron

Underwhelming is the right word, in my opinion. It's fine, no better and no worse. It certainly won't impress you the way, say, Flightbeam or even recent Taxi2Gate airports do.

I'm really not trying to be unfair here. It's not a bad airport on the whole! But it doesn't use any innovative techniques (at least not that I've noticed) and it does lack a certain flair. There's no "wow" moment.

Hmm, interesting point. Taxi2Gate just released an update to EDDM, perhaps that is a better choice... I do like their Paris.

- Aaron

Can someone explain me what the Professional has that non-professional doesn't.  Is this some new line of products by Aerosoft - Professional line? and is this product made exclusively by Aerosoft or they contracted to some third party devs?

T2G EDDM is very nice.

Orbx just released Germany south. Will have to see how they work together.

The Pro version is made by professionals while the non-pro is made by amateurs...

Just kiddin..

I was round a mates house and I thought it was very good.

The approach looked stunning, fps was very good. MT6 looked great.

Did not see any glitches.

Very good. A great airport. Praise we’re praise is due. To ever made it.
