Birds. Everywhere.

Recommended Posts

Yeah, I have them . They work well, show up frequently, and have no noticeable impact on frame rate. I would recommend them.

Nice, I think I’ll r grab them for U.K. and Europe. I believe that this is something that could heighten immersion. Just need them to be able to collide with the plane engines eventually for total realism.

I've got the whole Birds series, they indeed enhance immersion. One of my top 5 add-ons for MSFS together with Addons Linker, Navigraph Charts, Global AI ships and ATC Chatter.

Yep, I've got them all too. Nice thing is they feel quite subtle. Sort of thing you just notice occasionally and makes you realise you'd been missing something.

By all means tell how you like it.  Been seeing this add-on allot for various areas around the world and wondered does it add anything to the sim outside of bird strikes...😳

Bird strikes? Are they solid models? If we hit them with the aircraft does damage happen?

I have never hit one, but I have come close to a few, and seeing them rush past is indeed very similar to how it is in real life. I have also taxied past little flocks of pigeons gathered on the ramp and wondered if I was going to suck them into the engine... It is a really nice addition.

I would get them if the variety of birds was bigger and especially, regionally different and season dependant.

I picked these up for the US regions.  Very nice add on, they show up often and cool as you whiz by them on takeoffs and landings.  Have not encountered a strike, albeit I'm not sure that is even part of it.
