    This is one I have and it is very good indeed. it's great to see the little problems when you compare it, like that parking lot, something you don't know or see until you compare it that way. they could have done better. The package would have been perfect. I love the ski jumping area :) Great video, I just would have loved to see a winter comparison to see how ORBX handles the snow on their structures.

  • @JJ-kz4zq

    Once again, a great review Dave, thank you. Your perspective on default hand-crafted and 3rd party addon scenery helps me better qualify/quantify how to spend my money given the large number of addons coming our way (and my limited budget). It seems that FS2020 has raised the bar on both addon scenery and aircraft since it's never been this good out of the box (default). Additionally, the shareware being developed since August is impressive and that is also raising that bar. On the other hand, the market that FS2020 has and continues to create has never been this big, so good quality products stand to get better returns than they did before. I'm no expert and may be missing other aspects, but thought I'd share some thoughts on where things seem to be headed for us and its good. Given the large number of products coming our way, your reviews are of high value. I encourage you to expand your presence.

    I knew I had seen the correct runway lighting on a scenery before. We discussed this in one of your previous videos lol. This is the airport 😁
    I cannot hate on Microsoft/Asobo for not making scenery as good as Orbx. Orbx have one job to do. Make beautiful scenery. And they do, so to compare Asobo's effort is a bit unfair in the nicest possible sense lol. Asobo did a great job of recreating LOWI, its just that Orbx have many years experience, put their best designers on the case, and came up with something jaw dropping. Asobo were a close second. The thing that stands out to me the most is just how lucky we are, that Microsoft put a great team together, that created a game changing platform for scenery developers to create pieces of software like Orbx LOWI. Handshakes all round 🤝🤝
    Another great review buddy. You're getting very good at this. Some great camera work. Everyone in this video used their A game 😁

    Great review.
    My only problem with this scenery is whether or not you will be flying to or from Innsbruck enough to justify the extra cost.
    This goes for all add on airports, not just this one.
    Personally, I think the original scenery is more than acceptable for the amount of time that I'll be in that area, but I can understand regular flyers, to that area, buying this airport.
    It also concerns me that all these add ons are eating away at your storage space.
    One of the biggest pluses of this sim is the fact that data is streamed in on the fly, saving storage space, so you need to pick and choose your add ons carefully.
    As well as the storage cost is the monetary cost and buying lots of airports, or scenery packages, soon adds up.
    There's no doubt that, besides the car park textures, Orbx has done a terrific job here, it's just not worth 20 dollars for me :)
    The only airport that I've purchased is London City, because that's where my base is set up in Onair.

    • @NOTAM1
      @NOTAM1  3 года назад +2

    A perfect review. I think i have to see more from you. I´ve bought the scenery without taking a closer look, because ORBX is a garant for such work. Take a look at Firenze from Gaya under the ORBX-Sign. It´s wonderfull. I will take a closer look to the parkinglots, because i´m interessted if the MSFS.Version wins from 500 oder 15000 ft. Nice work!

    Thanks for the great review NOTAM, so close to perfection ... what is frustrating is the so many individuals fall under the ORBX camp that there seem to be wild variations within the quality. How often do small things like those ground textures get updated? I don't see much in the way of updates to scenery or am I wrong? :)

    • @NOTAM1
      @NOTAM1  3 года назад +1

      I find it difficult to compare performance as I find a big difference in how someone has their system setup. If you are close to being main thread (CPU) limited, you will find a large difference around scenery upgrades. I'm not very CPU limited and see little difference. It depends so much on system setup that I feel it's too difficult to gauge in the reviews.

    its a beautiful looking airport - I agree, I want my airports to look used, not cartoon looking! Good point on the outside the terminal - we don't have to be 100% true to life at the expense of poor quality. I would not by it (yet) MAINLY as its not one I tend to consider or use! Great and considered review though, thank you again. Wish Orbix (?) had taken some effort when they made the London landmarks pack - so bad that they pulled some of their changes to put back the MS versions. I also think - as you comment - there is a lot to say for adding some surrounding scenery to add to the experience. I don' NECESSARILY want my airport to look identical - I don't personally know enough about them (but this comment maybe controversial)

    I agree the parking lot textures should have overlayed gray asphalt textures. I believe the parking lots at Key West have overlays. Otherwise this airport looks great and will purchase. The new Florence Italy airport looks great also which will be a nice flight between these two airports with the awesome scenery.
    Do you know where to get free approach plates for Europe airports? I use sky vector for US airports because the default atc approach glide slope altitudes in MFS are not always correct.
