This program does not install for me. It basically says I have an invalid character in my P3DV4 path...

I have the same problem... I reckon that this product is free for an unlimited time (at least there's no end date for this free offer on the SimMarket product page), but still, it would be nice to find a solution to the problem...

Fun! I used to live in Chengdu, and I visited that airport when it was being built just to get away from the smog. So wild to see it in the sim. The did a good job.

Yes, but I must admit that this airport (and also some others that were available for free or at a large discount in the past weeks) is almost of the kind which I wouldn't even want as freeware. That kind of modelling looks very basic and like a FSX freeware scenery from ten years ago. But thanks for the heads-up about the dynamic lighting by iniBuilds! Maybe it's worth giving it a try with the dynamic lighting, since the user review at simMarket mentioned the almost non-existing night lighting in the actual scenery.

The pics look like they came from fs9. I never judge by pics. P3D 4 makes any airport look better. It's free! Install it and see how it looks on your system.

I’m a bargain hunter, so i acquired this airport.

But I think your comment is unfair to 2010-era FSX freeware builders. Looks more like FS graphics from my C64 simming days.

Yes, I did - in the end, it's free. 😉 And I think it looks okay, even if it is for sure not the technologically most advanced scenery I ever had. 😉 I guess that P3Dv4 really makes some airports look better than on the screenshots. Together with the iniBuilds dynamic lighting set, it is fairly decent if you just want to have an additional airport to make a hop to.

I believe there is none today, surprisingly. The "Gratis" section at simMarket doesn't list any new entry. You can always recognise the daily giveaway product by the countdown clock displayed next to the product. The "eternal" giveaway products don't have that clock.

Today its practically free day with selected Justsim airports. 

[FWAviation 39]

simMarket confirmed on its Facebook page that this is one of three days within this month without a giveaway.
