My first impressions about German coverage in general are not that good...

Very happy with it so far. My medium-sized city even has photogrammetry!

I had the same impressions. And there are surprisingly many areas where you just have the basic LC coverage which I thought was a thing of the past. Start in Schwäbisch Hall for example and have a look at the city.

Try the baltic sea , Lübeck and above. You can fly VFR cause of the streets and layouts are perfect , but there is definitely room for improvments on the buildings and other objects.

was checking Stuttgart airport, and yes its erased, but it was there in the alpha a few month ago.

Stuttgart city looks great, but the airport is erased badly, looks like it was a quick shot 😜

I'm pretty happy with Germany so far. Sure, the autogen AI has a lot of trouble with special buildings like churches or castles, but overall, from 2000 ft or so, I've never seen anything quite as convincing.

I've expected more "photo-realistic" coverage of some of the airfields I fly to regularly: EDTM, EDDS, EDTD, EDSN etc. They all have paved runways, some of them quite big. My previous home airfield (rather small) has wildly wrong elevation and weird slopes.  

Biggest disappointment is definitely Stuttgart Airport, a huge and important landmark for me missing. Luckily (or maybe not) thanks to Corona, low approach requests are granted almost every time I fly over IRL, which is great!

Well, it is an important city in German aviation - because it has the biggest unlit aviation obstacle in all of Germany! 😂

Take it up with the German government as they made Bing hide those airports

However ... Google Maps does show e.g. Eindhoven. I can't imagine government does't allow Microsoft but do allow Google?

Um, this is insane. Seriously?

This is kind of a big deal. Sure, I understand how it happened, but...

Man that sucks, how didn't the alpha testers catch this and force MS to add at minimum the FSX model? 😞

Maybe Janov means the "Weidacher Höhe", a hill in the west of EDDS. But unlit? The airport in fs looks like "10 years after zombie apocalypse" ^^
