Well done as usual @mrfilbert . You are becoming one of my trusted reviewers, and I don't say that lightly... @raymar has very few in his caliber.

Must be a joy to do when the scenery is that good.

It really is. I hate reviewing bad airports, and I'm not that keen on reviewing mediocre ones either. Add-ons like this really perk me up.

 At around 13:50 in that video he compares this airport with Aerosofts Glen Bon...? Anyones know he is talking about?

😂Sorry Manny - I'll try to annunciate more clearly in future! Yes, Cologne-Bonn is awesome. It came top in my "Top 10 best add-on airports for Microsoft Flight Simulator... so far" video which I made at the end of last month (https://youtu.be/86ayMfFuVWE). I was saying this might have beaten it to the top spot.

Thank you very much. That's high praise indeed. And thanks to all the rest of you for your kind words as well. JetStream Designs' Paris Orly is next on the list.

Awesome list! I would have ranked St. Martin as my favorite, but the best right now is KLAS & Bonn is certainly in my top 5. I would certainly have to add FSDT's Zurich to my top 10. Cheers!

I just purchased KLAS (MSFS).

I flew into KLAS ILS 26L PMDG737 and noticed NO DME.

I later checked 26R and No DME.

Lastly I checked 1L and DME was OK.

Anyone know why no DME 26L / 26R ?

Note:

I posted in the FlyTampa forum Sept1 2022 but no reply.

I also sent a "FlyTampa Contact US" message but no reply there either?

I can't seem to NOT have MSFS freeze on me around FlyTampa KLAS. I did, however, get this shot before breaking off and going around (10 mi. and 239 kts - no way was I going to make approach speed while descending on the GS) -

notice the working DME.

This is ILS 26R BERBN trans. Shortly after BERBN I tuned the LOC frequency and DME popped up instantly. When I'm able to eliminate the sim freeze I'll do ILS 26L and see what I get.

somiller,

Thanks for the reply confirming good DME for FlyTampa KLAS. Much appreciated.

My previous flight no DME (screenshot).

I installed current Navigraph data and PMDG Navigraph Navdata cycle and today’s flight = good DME (screenshot).

NICE!

Oops, I forgot to mention I'm using current Navigraph navdata in MSFS and PMDG 737.

Interesting it doesn't work in FT stock LAS without Navigraph.

...and hello from KTOL.

I have a similar problem. Maybe the exact same problem. When flying COKTL2 arrival via BERBN to ILS 26R/L I get massive navigation display lag during the left hand turn onto final. The rest of the sim is completely smooth (60 - 70 FPS). This happens in the PMDG 737 all variants as well as the Fenix. It also happens with the default KLAS. I've tried the current production sim update 9 as well as sim update 10 beta. I've tried reducing graphics settings, lowering resolutions etc. I even nuked my entire system and reinstalled just the sim and the PMDG 737 and it still happens.

When I say "freeze" I mean the whole sim freezes...as in stops completely. I can do other things on my computer, the sound is still there, but this sim is frozen. CPU drops to about 15% - 20% and GPU is zeroed out with a periodic twitch up to around 40% and then back to zero.

Never had this happen until trying to fly around KLAS.
