Merry Christmas Everyone! I see that that this version of KIND is on sale, and looks to be pretty good in the photos. Can anyone comment on the quality? Thanks in advance!

Its awesome. The terminal is one of the best I've ever seen modelled. Its worth full price.

Thanks for the info.  I’ve never bought from this dev before but good to know it’s a solid product.

I don’t think I’ve even had a payware KIND before in any sim.

Bought it and just did a quick test flight, looks great. Definitely a deal at the sale price, but even priced right at full price. Performance is very good too.

I had one from Blueprint Simulations for FSX.  For its 2008 vintage it was quite good.  I fly mostly GA and the GA area at the east end of the airport as well as the Fedex processing areas along the south end were quite well done.  Even included some seasonal touches.  I am now using the Dominic version for MSFS.  The main terminals are great but in my opinion the GA area I mentioned for Blueprint is not as well done in this Dominic version.  This Dominic version IMHO has too many buildings/structures that are squared off or angular with no roof overhangs. 

I do still like it a lot.  Just it could be better.  My experience has shown that once a regional hub airport has been done at least reasonably well, like this one, that likely is it.  Developers will pick other airports so they can avoid splitting sales.  So then why wait to purchase, especially during a good sale.

Ahh yes I think I had that one too.  I  had a bunch of blueprint airports back in the day and had a bit of a love/hate relationship with them.

This is disappointing to hear. It will not prevent me from picking this one up -- it has been on my list for quite some time -- but I do wish developers would pay attention to areas of the airport outside the main terminals. I fly principally GA and commercial flights -- and when I fly an airliner most of the time it is a cargo aircraft - and too often the areas visited by these aircraft -- the GA and cargo ramps -- look like a bit of an afterthought, while the main terminal is well developed inside and out. There are many airports I have that I have never been to a standard passenger gate!

Does anyone know if KIND ever got proper airline assignments? DomincDesign's add-ons are on sale at ini but he's super lazy about including proper assignments.
