August 12, 20223 yr Folks, With Orbx having a 40% fire sale, I was thinking of picking up a few of their airports. Particularly LaGuardia, Raleigh-Durham and Stuttgart. Anyone know how good their quality is? Ever since Orbx became a portal some of the stuff on there has been hit/miss.

August 12, 20223 yr LGA and RDU are the best ones If you are going to buy two of them, but that's not saying much. WU 6 Asobo Stuttgart is much better.

The rest is not worth it (maybe KLAX until something better arrives). For transparency: I'm a community mentor at the BATC discord. However, I do not get paid for it in any way.
August 12, 20223 yr I'm surprised to see anyone recommending Feelthere products at any price. They all look terrible for payware.

August 12, 20223 yr Not much better than default.Rubbish in X-Plane. Jude BradleyBeech Baron: Uh, Tower, verify you want me to taxi in front of the 747?ATC: Yeah, it's OK. He's not hungry.

August 12, 20223 yr LGA has one glaring problem in it's tower where Feelthere have taken significant creative liberty, but the terminals and taxiways are great, so if that won't put you off it's passable. RDU is as bland as it is in reality, so no critique here. Keep the blue part on top...

That said, the difference between the MSFS Standard default OMDB and the FeelThere version is light years apart. Bought during a sale, FeelThere's OMDB is a nice holdover for me until such time as FlyTampa ever decide to release their version.

August 13, 20223 yr I’d pick up KRDU if it’s good, but I keep thinking that LVFR is gonna update theirs. Any thoughts? Cheers, Pete Pete Solov - Lake in the Hills 3CK and Schaumburg Regional 06CProud AOPA Member - PPL 2001Real World Piper Cherokee Pilot

August 14, 20223 yr They also mentioned they probably aren’t going to update RDU for MSFS since Feelthere has their rendition out. That’s personally a big disappointment for me.
