German Airports 2 - 2012

The German Airports Team is again setting new standards in terms of quality, realism, and friendly frame rates. All airports are developed according to the 2012 status. Included are the airports of Cologne/Bonn, Hanover, Dortmund, Munster/Osnabruck and Leipzig/Halle in an absolutely astonishing quality.

All buildings, runway layout, taxiways, lighting and NAV aids are true to the original. Built on high resolution aerial images the airports and their surroundings show an absolute realistic image of the real world.

Conclusion by simFlight.com
"One of the best parts about this package is that you get five detailed and unique airports at an exceptional price. If you were to purchase them individually you would be paying 83.75 so the package price of 33.57 is a savings of over 50%. The savings alone are a great incentive to seriously consider this package. However I like it for much more than that. The graphics are very nice, the locations are realistically recreated and they all make for interesting locations to fly in and out of. All in all this is one great package that I highly recommend."
