flightsimg Posted October 31, 2019 Share Posted October 31, 2019 And that makes that there are so many way to fly in there! Personally, a I worked for the French government in Northern Africa (a kind of French Peace Corps but much better :) ), I like returning to where i lived or visited in the area. Also fly around Dijon, on those terrains I know. And for the rest, I allow me to any location I feel to check. And, as I also travelled a lot here and there (Europe, US, etc.) I'm that too much tempted, all in all. That allowed me also to check realism in the FS versions. Indeed a fine product, I think since FS98.

Indeed a fine product, I think since FS98. The real tools for world geeks (in a good sense :):) ) You definitely have a leg up being a world traveler! Making the comparisons is worth it. I really want to expand my skills and get into designing airports I once flew to in the real world. I've been doing a lot of research in that area now. (The reason for my home office project) I would like to have those airports a little more to my liking.
