September 29, 20214 yr Afternoon all, I've just published my review of Pilot Plus' Bristol. I wasn't quite as quick off the mark as I sometimes am but hopefully it'll still prove useful if you're considering buying it. 🙂   filbertflies.com | YouTube | Twitchi7 13700k, GeForce RTX 3080Ti, 32GB RAM
September 29, 20214 yr Thanks, I have the UK2000 version but am considering this one. I will have a close look at your review later.

September 30, 20214 yr It looks very nice, but if there is one thing that I could ask developers to do, it would be to make sure that all buildings airside (including the GA areas) are given the same attention to detail as the main terminal. Flat textures and lack of 3D detail is always disappointing Christopher Low AMD Ryzen 7 9800X3D CPU / 64GB DDR5-6000 RAM / 12GB Nvidia RTX 4070 Super GPU / Gigabyte X870E Aorus Elite Wifi 7 / 1+2TB Samsung Evo Plus M2 Nvme UK2000 Beta Tester

September 30, 20214 yr Since I have also mentioned this to Gary about UK2000 products.....yes, I do think that it is appropriate. To be honest, I am not even beta testing at the moment, since I uninstalled P3Dv4 (my only flight simulator) a couple of months ago. My spare time is currently spent on other projects, and I have no idea when (or if) I will return to flight simulation.

Flat textures and lack of 3D detail is always disappointing I agree with you about all airside buildings being given the same level of detail, one simmer might use the commercial airliner terminal while another VFR simmer might only ever use the GA facilities, each are as important as the other. Hopefully devs listen to this argument.

September 30, 20214 yr Is there agreement that the Pilot Plus Bristol outshines the UK2000 version or is there still a good competition for first place? I am a big fan of Garys work, but am keen to add the best version of Bristol into my MSFS?

I am a big fan of Garys work, but am keen to add the best version of Bristol into my MSFS? I have both versions. Without any doubt the Pilot Plus version is the one to go for. IÂ don't think there's much difference in price either. The review says it all.

I have both versions and I live in Bristol - Pilot Plus is easily better - although they haven't modelled my £6.99 bacon sandwich from last Weds - so a point off there.

I've been as critical as anyone of some of Gary's MSFS sceneries but I wouldn't describe any of them as flat and dull. filbertflies.com | YouTube | Twitchi7 13700k, GeForce RTX 3080Ti, 32GB RAM
September 30, 20214 yr Author ...in fact, if anything, some of them could do with being flatter! 😆 filbertflies.com | YouTube | Twitchi7 13700k, GeForce RTX 3080Ti, 32GB RAM
