February 6, 20215 yr As continuation of my previous post (Part I), please find here, as I catch (and snap) sights from this beautiful Airport, moving around with my companion "Bob". The Scenery Developers, FSX3D, have done an admirable job of the Airport, and it shows. As I'd stated earlier, they have an equivalent scenery of (LFMQ) for MSFS, too. But, noting that this scenery content is limited to the Airport vicinity; in my FSX, I (abruptly) lose continuity of scenery (i.e. back to the mundane), as soon as I leave the vicinity. But, for MSFS users, I'm expecting, even the default (MSFS) scenery, past the Airport, will make it not an abrupt transition, but would feel seamless and pleasant...and, thereby, this airport scenery could provide a delectable (and ideal) base airport, for virtual sightseeing of the French Riviera region, to which this Airport, actually, touts itself, as the Gateway. I particularly loved the Airport buildings, with their inviting "stucco" appearance, beautiful red-roofs of earthen tiles, and, of course, abundance of flowers in front. Do note, on the main airport building's front face, in the close-up shot of the Airport logo, how the symbol of the color-coded race-track (mentioned in Part I), is made part of the logo. Please also note the nice helipad-like circular parking areas of the airport, with me/Bob, in one image, standing on Parking Spot No. "PE8". I did see many Executive Business Aircraft and a few Grand Caravans (one of which started rolling menacingly towards my alter-ego and companion ("Bob")...🙂...). In the pictures below, I've varied the lighting conditions to capture the (aesthetic) moods of this Airport. Overall, it was indeed a fun Airport to visit and learn about, and I'm glad I did so (virtually)...! Hope you enjoy these images from my visit...!! [FSX3D (LFMQ), Orbx (Bob), REX]
