London Heathrow

was just released. Creator is SimWing.

Promises to be a frame-killer like Frankfurt, but looks good.

Could become one of the rare Outside-Germany-Locations I will install.

the official release video:

I got the scenery short while ago (FS9), and must say this is one of the absolutely best airport sceneries I have ever seen. My older system even can handle it, not smoothly as silk, but playable. It gives a very massive impression of how wide this thing is, and with Traffic2005 at 30% and Airport Enhanced Services 1.93, taxing and docking and moving around while orienting yourself and inspect all the details, is very immersive. Don't know how they did it, the textures remain surprisingly sharp even at close range (although I had only the lower resolution textures installed, with regard to frames and my older system). the runway lights looks also very different here, and have been created truly three-dimensional - the visual impression is stunning at dawn.

This is now one of my most preferred airports in the FS world. If you have even a small interest in Hethrow and a good representation in FS9 or FSX, this package comes highly recommend and without a single word of criticism - top quality airport! I thought aerosoft's "Mega Airport Frankfurt" was already good, but this one is even slightly better.
