Charlie,

I hope so :)

Did you have experience buying airport sceneries WITHOUT buying required base packages and airport sceneries work well?

No but some of the airports state...

Please note that without purchasing and installing TrueEarth Great Britain South for X-Plane 11, the airport will appear differently as it shown in our promotional screenshots. You may experience one or more of the following issues: Missing or misplaced forests, non-aligned road or motorway traffic, missing or misplaced houses and buildings surrounding the airport, ortho colour matching and blending or other visual anomalies.

Sumburgh isn't one of them.

They also state...

Prerequisite Products
You require at least one of the following products to use EGPB Sumburgh Airport - X-Plane 11.

Orbx Libraries - X-Plane 11
$0.00 AUD


I'd certainly have no concerns.

Aharon. As you use Fsx, you will require Ftx Scotland as a prerequisite. Not sure how it will look without this, but I guess things will be displaced a bit :worried:

It was a private venture by a friend and I don't have permission to share it. Except as a photo of course. The island photo scenery was purchased from Horizon.

Den.

Aharon the only problem I have with orbx scenery is once you start buying it, its hard to stop until after you have spent more money that you really wanted. I started with orbx global and vector and they are a huge improvement over the base scenery, and they have lots of freeware airports you can add. But over the last few years I have over 30 regions and airports I have added, almost all when they were on sale and I do enjoy them, but I did go a bit overboard.

If your able to spend the money, I recommend you get orbx global, at lest then the colors of the airport won't seam off to the rest of the world. Vector is also very much worth it. Once you have crossed the line, it may be hard to stop.
