Bought it yesterday, and I must say I'm impressed.  Perhaps one of the most "satisfying" sceneries I've ever purchased.  The airport surrounded by British homes and all the other details that make this scenery so very real.  Additionally, I'm a real Beatles fan so seeing that Yellow Submarine there is especially gratifying.

I will always look forward to considering Digital Design scenery from this day forward.  Love flying from Liverpool to Gatwick or Heathrow.... or vice versa.  Since my wife and I are going to Berlin in April, I'm also enjoying a Liverpool to Berlin flight now.  Also will be going to Munich for Octoberfest in September...so Europe is especially interesting to me at this time.

ps.  Just got back from Warsaw, Gdansk, Sophia (Bulgaria) and Romania in 2018...so I'm a busy flight sim guy these days. I'm simulating all the wonderful flights that I had in real life, and it is a joy.

Think I'm getting this as well. One question, does it blend well with Orbx FTX England textures?

It blends perfectly with Orbx OLC, so it should Glenn. I flow out last night in the FSL and performance was fantastic even with DL on. Very impressed with this airport. Going to use it as a base for a bit for Easyjet flights.

Thanks, good to know. 

Is Anfield and Goodison Park modeled?

Maybe FTX ORBX England has it ?

 

Thanks

ORBx TrueEarth GB Central will almost certainly include Anfield and Goodison Park when it is eventually released, as JV has stated that all stadiums with 7000 seats or more will be bespoke models.

I ended up buying this scenery yesterday, great job! (and I tested various seasons and can confirm it is fully supported)

Have to agree with this, did my first proper flight from it in the NGX yesterday and taxiing to runway 09, with the houses and industrial units showing in the background along with the street lighting, made it feel so very real, fantastic.  UK2000 version has served me well this last 2 years but, this rendition has really made it an immersive experience to fly in/out of Liverpool.  The texturing of the ground in the rain and fog yesterday was also fantastic, really adding to the feel of it all.

Cheers

So, I still do not know the extent of the surrounding scenery coverage. Does this include the three bridges over the Mersey? Does it include any scenery on the south side of the Mersey? It is not clear from the screenshots/videos, as I think they have ORBx FTX England (or some other scenery) active beyond.

At work but from memory.

Probably the Train tracks are its borders.

I flew here from the Isle of Man yesterday just to test it out and even though it was dark the distinctive 'old' Silver Jubilee bridge is most certainly present, as is the new Gateway bridge. Can't speak for the railway bridge as in real life it is tucked in quite close to the Jubilee bridge and I couldn't see it in the dark, but by then I was looking for the runway. I have a video that I'll post up later if I get a chance. Forgive my floaty landing as I got distracted on short final when my joystick slid across the desk....

As to the scenery - fantastic! I've been a big fan of Gary's work for UK2000 for many years and always will be, but this is a serious step up in quality. Performance, texturing and lighting are all top notch. These guys are very, very good.

There is an old freeware mersey bridges download by Paul Derbyshire somewhere which contains the most accurate rail bridge at Runcorn that I've seen. 

They did a reasonable job, but two visual landmarks for VFR pilots in the scenery area are the Hale village church and lighthouse, both not modelled :(

+1.  A very fair statement and one i agree with 100%.
