If you have the freeware Orbx airports package I recommend KRVL, Reedsville, PA or KIPT in Williamsport, PA. Both very nice. IPT has ILS approach also.

Also in the same region is KLHV William T. Piper Memorial field in Lock Haven, PA. A virtual place of aviation history. Orbx did it really well. The old Piper plant is there and the museum. The approach is fun due to the steep appallachian mountains hemming is the valley and finals takes you close over the Susquehanna West Branch. Well worth a virtual visit.

 Pity ORBX doesn't have Friday Harbor for MSFS yet.

 

I was surprised to see it hasn't made it over yet also, as with Monroe first air and Harvey field my 3 favorite. 

EDIT:  Another favorite is KRDD Redding you get two airports in the package. Very well done.

Looking for a recommendation for a small GA field in North America, preferably USA.

A hidden gem is 2O1 Gansner Field in Quincy CA.  It's part of the KBLU Blue Canyon package.  I've flown into 2O1 numerous times over the years, and KBLU once... for me Orbx's 2O1 is the winner.

Do you also have extremely low download rates with Orbx-Central since 2 days or is it only me...?!

Yes, I noticed that 2 days ago also. Am on a 1Gb fiber connection and it was slow.

Can anyone recommend the three Pyreegue Ukrainian airports? They look pretty decent.

I purchased LGKO Kos International and Terraflora v2 for P3Dv4 recently, and the download speed started at around 12 Mbps, and then struggled to maintain even 8Mbps towards the end. For the record, my connection is capable of around 70 Mbps.
