Thanks for your replies.

Helicopters make up a big part of my hangar and we don't see enough of them.

Silver1SWA,

If I were to tell you my average frame rates it really wouldn't matter that much and would only reflect my machine and my set-up.

The more relevant question for me is smoothness and functionality since I don't like to pause the sim while I'm shooting.

The Manhattan scenery by Aerosoft is what I like to call "responsible" work and its affect on framerates is not as bad as its complexity would suggest.

They have done an excellent job at trying to "keep it down"

For instance I downloaded a small freeware scenery of Keywest airport and it is causing me many more issues than the Manhattan scenery.

This proves that it is not always the complexity of scenery that hits frame rates.

Also how a machine is set-up greatly affects the end performane.
