   This is my first sim720 product so I thought I would put together an document my first flight and opinions.

 

 

Rainy IFR conditions at KLAF we departed around 6:45 in the morning.  We are making the trip in Flight1 King Air B200  Route of flight is KLAF-MACES-BQM-VXV-IRQ-KAGS FL250

Not much to see as clouds were overcast for more than half of the flight.

Decending into KAGS marginal VFR I'm guessing the Hurricane has something to do with the weather yesterday lol!

Hoping for runway 17 however upon getting the ATIS we will be landing on 35.  Took the 161 radial off of IRQ to intercept the localizer and get established on the glideslope (1700ft)

 

Winds were stong but managed to keep it on centerline and touchdown just long of the markers.

Beautiful airport and very well done.  I got off the runway too soon to taxi past the terminal to GA parking but hopefully when I leave they will send me to runway 17 so I can get a closer look.

 

 

 

Overall very happy with the product its is detailed and accurate.  Please note there is so much more to see than what my short taxi to parking was able to document.  I like these midsizes airports to add to my destinations.  My only complaint is FPS.  I was getting 10 in the cockpit but 30 outside.  Even latin VFR Miami I can obtain 15-17 in the cockpit.  Any ideas?

What is your PC specification? You should be getting a LOT more than 10fps with a decent machine.

That is a powerful PC, and should certainly be running SIM720 KAGS a lot faster than 10 fps. I had no framerate problems when I was beta testing this airport.
