July 14, 20205 yr There is some people who obvious bias and financial commitment to P3D that have been spreading negative information about MFS. Personally, you will find that non handmade airports are more than serviceable. If you want to buy a 3rd part airport to enhanced your experience, more power to you. https://fsprocedures.com Your home for all flight simulator related checklist.

July 14, 20205 yr I am crossing my fingers that at least some of my addons for P3d will be upgraded to work with MSFS, even if there is an upgrade fee. Hopefully Orbx will be one of these. I guess time will tell. Cheers, Pete Pete Solov - Lake in the Hills 3CK and Schaumburg Regional 06CProud AOPA Member - PPL 2001Real World Piper Cherokee Pilot

July 14, 20205 yr So many questions, for example will the new default airports support traffic add-ons, SODE and/or GSX services? These utilities literally bring an airport to life.
July 14, 20205 yr Outstanding news. I own all of the ORBX regions in North America, I wonder what they'll be doing in MFS since the default scenery is so good? Airport makeovers seem very likely. Looking forward to seeing what they release!
July 14, 20205 yr I see this as no surprise either. They said 100+ (can't remember if they said 100 or 200 or 150, 250, ...) 3rd parties have had the SDK for a while now and are on board while creating addons already. I don't know about anyone else, but the number of > 100 3rd parties blew my mind completely considering I had no idea there even are that many 3rd party developers. In fact, I doubt there are anywhere near as many as that which means they probably don't only have all the ones we know but also new ones on board. PMDG, Orbx, Aerosoft etc. are, in my humble opinion, just the tip of the iceberg. I'd be surprised if there will be one known payware developer not on board for MSFS.

July 14, 20205 yr Happy to say the next sim for me will be Orbx free, unless it comes with some of their content. Avsim member since 2002. 1000+ posts on old account.
