Greek island airports for fsx recommendations

Recommended Posts

Hi

I am looking to recreate my last real holiday in my sim which was Gatwick to Kos, I have the UK2000 Gatwick scenery but don't have any for Kos right now, I have found KOS X by areosoft but as it's quite an old product am not sure if it's any good? Would also love to find some other airports in the greek islands too.

Does anyone have experience of using Kos X or can recommend other aiports in the area.

Many thanks

Daz

FlyTampa's Corfu (LGKR) is a very nice one.

Hi Daz,

If you're still thinking about Aerosoft Kos X, I have it installed and I thought I would give you a little feedback. You are correct in that it is a fairly old product but the airport itself, although not Fly Tampa standard, is still pretty good. It does not however have quite the same level of detail that you might find in more recent Aerosoft products such as the Balearic Islands airports or indeed the 29Palms versions of Samos, Mykonos or Skiathos, all of which I have. The 29Palms airports also include a fair bit of extra autogen outside the airport perimeter which adds to the sense of realism but Kos X doesn't seem to include that and, as a result, the appearance of Kos overall is a little stark. But on the positive side, it's performance is good and it is not expensive and if it was an airport you particularly wanted I would still consider it. It can also be purchased as a bundle with 3 other airports (Faro, Monastir and Antalya) as Aerosoft Holiday Airports 1 for EUR30 which is not bad value, although all of these, as far as I know, are equally old products.

Hi there, I own Corfu, Iraklio, Kos, Skiathos,Santorini, but the most difficult and demanding landing is at Samos, the 09 runway.  There are plenty of videos on youtube like this. All of them are very good. For best Scenery Corfu, and Iraklio.
