FlyTampa KBOS Boston Logan International

I have been considering purchasing this airport, as I am always impressed by the attention to detail in FlyTampa airports. However, I have noticed a graphical issue in at least three videos of this airport (including the official trailer) that is holding me back. That issue is strange black lines that appear and disappear in the water surrounding the airport. I know that this would drive me nuts, so I would like to know if this problem is evident for everyone, or whether it has been corrected?

Haven't noticed that, but also didn't look for it, so...

For transparency: I'm a community mentor at the BATC discord. However, I do not get paid for it in any way.

Have never seen this in my experience with this airport. It is excellent all around. Hesitate no more!

I'll look for that, but I can't recall seeing it at FlyTampa KBOS.  Although you may have jinxed me about "that which can now NOT be unseen"

Buy it!  Never noticed it or saw it!  One of the better airports in the sim, also run SamScene as well with it.

Yeah, cant talk about European airports, but in North America, Fly Tampa Boston is in the top 5

 

My personal favorite.

Agree with all of the other comments in this thread...a great MSFS airport scenery, one of my top 3 US airports to fly into in the sim. Every time I fly in or out of there I tell myself how good this scenery looks! I've also never noticed any black lines in the water, but like others, have not been looking for them.

Try turning off Photogrammetry (PG), and see if that has any effect on it.  In the thread (James) Bond links to earlier in this thread -- someone mentioned that PG caused it...I can neither confirm nor deny that, in true 007 fashion...

I was wondering if it had something to do with photogrammetry. I have never seen these thin black lines anywhere in MSFS, and I have PG switched OFF.

Since there's an 757 showing up on the horizon that I'll be going to use for transatlantic flights... what are your other four Top 5 Airports? 😉
