For its FlyTampa KLAS because you get a value to have the whole Las Vegas strip

I own FlyTampa's KLAS for XP and P3D:It's awesome. However, I was flying down the strip, in default MSFS, earlier today for the first time, and think it's great as it is. What are some differences you've noticed between the default MSFS KLAS strip and FlyTampa's?

Another vote for FT KLAS.  There are also a multitude of airports for free around the community.  Some better than the existing payware options.

Aerosoft Koln/Bonn off course, which was on discount at the marketplace during Christmas and I instantly grabbed it. I enjoy very much Prealsoft GMMN, which is now on discount at simmarket, and surprisingly very good is Cloudsurf Asia Simulations' WSSS which is a bargain. The price is excellent for the quality. I also recommend Macco Simulations' EGCC, which is WIP, and the developer offers it at a very low price if you buy it now. It is in a very good stage of development and frequently updated. Other that these, I think that FSDT's sceneries offer good value for money (KORD,LSZH,CYVR). Not outstanding, but certainly of very good quality, you will not regret buying either of those.

I am probably totally the wrong person to ask if you are after recommendations based on quality.

I am very easily swayed by funky gimmicky stuff like the little people on the beach at the Marketplace Julianna St Maarten addon, even with the big FPS hit from the beach party( see video) or the dairy cows in the paddocks around the Lyon Brindas LFKL addon 😄

Though I also think at $US5.00 people should just buy LFKL to encourage more of that decent level of pricing.

They will have to bring something more to the table in order to compete with the awesome freeware LTFM IMO.

The best is FT KLAS. My fav is still TNCM, St. Martin.

MSFS

There's already an outstanding freeware version available at flightsim.to.

MSFS

From the ones I own Cologne/Bonn (Aerosoft) is probably the best. I also like Salzburg (Digital Design), Florence (Gaya Simulations) and Basel (FSDT). Zurich (FSDT) is very good as well, especially considering the price.
