July 1, 20232 yr I already had the Bredok3d version of KSLC, but although the exteriors and modelling generally are good, it has no interiors and was one of the very early MSFS addon airports, so when I saw the Pacsim version I grabbed a copy. I really like Salt Lake City in the various sims - the setting is great and it seems to have been quite well done over the years, from what I remember. Only been there once in real life, and that was a working trip as usual, but enjoyed that even so. The new airport is good, with just one reservation (later), and the city and surrounding area is one of the PG gems in MSFS. So I'm doing this in two parts (and even so that will only be about a third of the shots I took). First part is really the airport. So let's get airborne in the 222B and have a look round The setting is great, and the airport has a lot of space to use, but it ain't going to win any architectural awards, that's for sure. AIG running, and there seems to be a fair bit of traffic here today Two level control tower (with interiors - not shown) Really nicely done terminal interiors, but here's the let down - not a soul (or should I say - pixsoul) to be seen. It seems a real shame, and a bit silly to be honest, to go to what I guess is a fair amount of effort to create such good looking interiors and then leave them looking like a ghost town. It was the same in the control tower, which is why I didn't bother posting a picture. Back outside again Again, nicely done but lifeless This is another one of those settings in MSFS where, sitting in front of my 55 inch 4k HDR monitor. I can almost feel the heat and the sunshine, and imagine the taste of the air. Absolute magic! Not a particularly glam shot, but captures the mundanity of airport activity nicely, I feel Meanwhile, back up in the air, the city awaits So let's go visit Part two will look at this very splendid chunk of (default) scenery.

July 2, 20232 yr Good shots. I might buy it and having no people isn't a deal breaker for me as I'd rather fly. Jack Sawyer
