A €5 turbulence dataset for 50 Greek airfields, accused of doing nothing and of doing far too much. Both camps are right, and the install explains why.

RyanYe’s €8.99 Fuzhou Changle is careful, cheap and two months behind reality: the real ZSFZ opened its second runway on 23 June 2026 and went 4F class.

Leonardo froze the Prepar3D Maddog X in October 2023 and retired it; simMarket still sells it at €80.00 unmarked. A superb aeroplane and a bad purchase.

SimSoft AirportInfo 2.0 is a tidy standalone airport-data window at EUR 5.95 — but it connects to no simulator at all, and its developer has gone unreachable.

CLI4D’s Victoria Falls is a landmark scenery, not an airport — and it lands on ground already held by a €14 rival, a free 17 KB fix and two FVFA sceneries.

FlyTampa's legacy Athens is a superb 2011 airport frozen in 2015 — and it costs six euros more than the MSFS rebuild of the very same field. Here is why.

X-Plane's first payware Chiang Mai arrived on 5 August 2026 with no reviews, no manual and a dead support site. The pedigree behind it is the reason to look.

The MSFS 2020 build of FS Fire costs the same €12.99 as its 2024 twin, is half the size, four patches behind, and has no cross-grade. It is still the pick.

Just Flight's F70 costs the same as the F100 but ships one model and 11 liveries against four and 18. When that is still the right buy, and when it is not.

SiamFlight sold Incheon as Early Access in March 2026 at €22.99. Five months and three builds later it is still 0.9.8 — and volunteers are filling the gaps.

Skydom's LGMK promises an airport and the whole island for €20.00. Two days after release, nobody outside the studio has published a shot of the island.

AVX Sorter charges €12.99 for a job free tools have handled since 2020. The features are real, but the public record behind them is barely six weeks old.

A €22.99 tablet panel for an A380 that costs nothing — and the same developer quietly gives away a free panel for the very same aeroplane. Our verdict.
3.1/5 · September 8, 2026 · 13 min read
HiFi’s X-Plane 12 weather engine still nails METARs and turbulence, but X-Plane 12.3.0 took over its two best features and HiFi has shipped only one fix since.

A 108-profile GSX Level 2 pack for P3D that was free for years, now €9.99, unsupported since 2023 — and still the best pushbacks in legacy flight sim.

FS2Crew Fenix A320 Edition costs €29.99, but it needs the £49.99 Fenix A320, so the real entry price is about €88. Twenty-eight sources, 2022 to 2026.

The most thoroughly built Nice in MSFS 2024 — interiors, tram, tunnel, animated ramp — has not been updated since June 2025, and the new Terminal 2 is missing.

MK Studios’ Fuerteventura 2017 is simMarket’s #15 all-time seller, was free for a day in 2020, and stops at P3D v4. Whether €15.00 still buys enough today.

France VFR's €9.90 Nice is the only MSFS scenery with the April 2026 Terminal 2 pier — and the only one that leaves Asobo's own buildings in place to get there.
