Hi,

I am wanting to download some payware scenery for Manchester. I have come across two products:

1) UK 2000 Scenery (http://www.uk2000scenery.com/main/index.htm)

2) SimFlyers Scenery (http://www.simflyers.net)

Could i have some advice on which one to purchase because i think they both look excellent and are both around the same price. Also if there are any other EGCC products - let me know!

Many thanks,
Richard

Hey,

To be honest they are both excellent. I am unsure about the quality of the SimFlyers version but UK2000 have an excellent Manchester scenery. The UK2000 version has Moving Vehicles, Static Scenery, Moving Jetways and the Simflyers version has the same.

Go with SimFlyers as there is a lot more detai or you can download the UK2000 and SimFlyers Manchester demos and see which ones you like best.

I believe UK2000 is the same as British airports - Just with uk2000 you get possibly updated versions & you buy direct from the developer, Gary Summons. I don't have any of these products though Cheesy

I wonder seeing that FS2002 is still supported whether it will be compatible with FS10???

I have the UK 2000 part 6 ( Wales & West Midlands) this includes Manchester, but I haven't flown from there yet! I find the level of detail to be very good, the only down side is the people are in summer clothes even in winter!! other than that I think it's fantastic and worth the money. I would like to buy the rest of them covering the uk,but, I can't afford £100 for the set just yet.
Hope this helps, feel free to ask anything. Chris

...like birdman said, Uk2000 is probably same as British Airports which I paid £14.99 for Wales and West Midlands at GAME....worth double at least......lots of nice touches...here's me getting the treatment at Manchester......commoner Grin

UK2000 and British Airports are the same, except the British Airports are sold in a DVD box but UK2000 versions have a different name but are a download.

e.g.

British Airports - Central England = UK2000 Part 4
