Incorrect hand-crafted airports?

Recommended Posts

If this is true, then people have wasted their money buying the premium versions, if the devs cant get it right.

In KSEA, there are N11 & N10 gates, but they don't exist in the Navigaph charts. Which is correct?

Donegal(EIDL) is incorrect also compared to its real life counterpart;

Runway 21 in MSFS2020 has no PAPI's, in real life it does;

Because the instriment approch to runway 21 is a Localiser only approach, no PAPI's is a hindrence.

In MSFS2020, no PAPI's to the left of runway 21(night time shot to islustrate);

It's also missing the apron extension to include stands 3W/E

Bing maps(MSFS2020 is the same);

I know the 'handcrafted' aspect can be the terminal and such but they're 2 big things to be missing.

Hand Crafted are a big step up from the normal level. They will never be as good as a big name developers addon Like Flightbeam's KDEN is a lot better than the Handcrafted version. Handcrafted will have faults and don't expect them to be as good as I said "flightbeam" etc. 

But to most people the hand crafted airports are well worth the upgrade cost alone, as you get a well modeled airport (not perfect) that are miles better than a default airport and another world from default P3D out of the box airports.

So no your not wasting your money at all. But if you want perfection then tuff, there not, buy a 3rd party version. IMO there well worth the money as unless you fly into one all the time, there fine. Take them for what they are, a good representatives of the airport.
