This scenery by Raffaele Fiore covers Milan Malpensa Airport in great detail, and includes a terminal which (in real life) will be finished only a few years from now.
Documentation:
The package is well documented, and includes a map of the taxiway names, and of the parking positions. The maps were taken out of FS, but writing was added to them for greater clarity.
The Scenery:
The scenery itself is very well made. It includes details such as taxiway signs, runway signs, airport buses, detailed terminal buildings and hangars (including the Alitalia Cargo building), jetways (including double jetways for 747s), parking position markings, the fire fighters building, and surrounding hills and rivers.
It's really a pleasure to fly out of and into this airport. The details make for very realistic takeoff, landing and taxi phases of flight, and they don’t take up much frame rate.
A nice feature of the scenery is the ability to start off not only on
various runways but also in many different gates or parking
positions. The attention to detail in this scenery is absolutely
amazing, and it's what makes this airport one of the most realistic
ones I have ever seen for FS.
One of the major downsides of this scenery is the lack of static planes. The airport seems a bit deserted in that there are no other planes parked in the gates or in the parking spaces. It might be a good idea to release an add-on which would add static aircraft to this airport.
Other than that, the scenery is just great, except for the fact that
it includes only the airport, but that's what it was intended to be
from the beginning.
Conclusion:
In conclusion, I must say that even though this scenery is of the airport only, it is very well done, and it includes details and custom buildings that aren't always seen in all scenery packages.
I can only hope that future scenery releases are as realistic as this one.
