Mega Airport Paris Orly

Prior to the construction of Charles de Gaulle Airport, Orly was the main airport of Paris. Even with the shift of most international traffic to Charles de Gaulle Airport, Orly remains the busiest French airport for domestic traffic and the second busiest French airport overall in terms of passenger boardings with 26,441,000 in 2007.

This airport scenery has been modelled to the smallest of details including all buildings and airport institutions. All features of this airport, including the docking systems, are fully up to date to how the airport looks at this moment. Countless static and dynamic objects enhance the flair of a busy mega airport.

Awards/Reviews:

Fazit vom PCFlight Magazin:
"Mega Airport Paris Orly is a brilliant product, it is very detailed and is a very well modelled scenery. I am very impressed with it and use it all the time. Because of the frame rates problem you should download the two replacement texture files, which will help ease them. The only other complaint I have is that it takes quite long for the textures to load. Apart from that everything else about this scenery is excellent. It’s highly detailed, AI traffic works brilliantly and the animated road traffic, the Orlyval system and the AESlite is perfect on it."

Conclusion by Avsim.com:
"As with most Aerosoft products, the quality can be expected to be high and there is no doubt that they have not compromised this value with the release of Paris Orly X. Stunningly modeled landside areas have become a trademark of the X series of scenery add-ons by Aerosoft and the attention to detail within the car parks, roads and terminal drop off areas is incredible. There is nothing like flying a large airliner like a 747 on final approach with a myriad of cars driving by the airport perimeter and right under the approach path whilst you prepare yourself for a smooth touchdown! It adds an extra depth of realism into the scenery. One advantage of being an Aerosoft product is that is comes AES prepared straight out of the box. AES has become one of the most popular scenery enhancements to come to flight simulation and it is not uncommon for many flight simmers to choose to only fly to AES airports. Initial performance concerns have been greatly reduced and with the updated patch, it has become an airport that I will fly to a lot more often. Now that I have a stunning place to park my aircraft, maybe next time I choose to fly to Paris, I will choose to go to Orly instead of the vastly complex and land hogging Charles de Gaulle!"

Conclusion by simFlight.com:
"This airport is big and it’s busy. There is so much to see! Be prepared to have your system put to the test if you decide to enable all of the animated features along with AI traffic. Despite having issues with frame rates being lower than I am accustomed to I was still happy with how the scenery performed and very happy with how it looked."
