What are the Reviews of Armi Project Cairo International Airport?

"To begin with, if you liked the Armi Project version of Bangkok VTBS (also available here on Simmarket - he was the first to do this for FS9) then you'll enjoy this! The scenery is very accurate and visually awesome! Texturing, even on the taxiway edges, is wonderful. The author has done a very good job of representing this major Egyptian airport with everything placed as it should be and a wealth of texturing and shadowing all over the scenery. The photo ground is also very well done and works exceptionally well within the limits of the scenery. Those limts are extensive as the photo ground goes out well beyond the airport! As you do extend further out, the scenery limit does not bind well with the rest of the landscape but that can be accepted since the photo ground extends well outside the airport environs. Roads and motorways are also good. Buildings in and around the airport including a major hotel (the Sheraton), have been very well done."

"This is a great scenery for FS2004. It is very detailed and realistic. The performance is also very good. I recommend it to anyone who likes to fly to Egypt or the Middle East."

"I have been waiting for a long time for a good scenery of Cairo airport for FS2004. I am very happy with this one. It is very accurate and beautiful. The jetways work fine and the skytrain is amazing. The night lighting is also very nice. It is worth every penny."
