    Icon5 Orbx scenery question

    I'm running P3Dv4 with a fair bit of Orbx stuff including the Global Base, Vector and LC Europe, and also EU England with most of the airfields. Now I see there's True Earth Great Britain South available, which covers my favourite areas. If I purchase this, will I still want EU England and the Orbx airfields, or does it act as an improved equivalent to the whole area?
    So - do I want True Earth? My existing Orbx won't be wasted, as I'll go on using it in FSX, so that's not a consideration.


    Thanks,


    David

    Just looked at the product page, and sadly there is no information about the previous UK region or the airfields...

    Edit: since the download size is 45 Gb, I don't think you'll need those airfield and the England region!

    True Earth Great Britain for P3Dv4 can be seen as a complete replacement for the existing landclass products, and it does include the upgraded airports as seen in the FTX EU region products.
    "Try to stay in the middle of the air. Do not go near the edges of it. The edges of the air can be recognized by the appearance of ground, buildings, sea, trees and interstellar space. It is much more difficult to fly there".

    However, those airports, while an improvement over the stock airports; are not of the quality of the individual airport add ons. EGHI Southampton, for instance; is much higher quality than the Regional, or True Earth version.
    So if you like photo real, the True Earth is an option, but you still need the airports. Be aware that the True Earth products are, let us say, system intense. https://orbxsystems.com/forum/topic/...one-airfields/

    If you get True Earth Great Britain South, you'll still need EU England, since the True Earth South scenery cuts off just north of Birmingham, so if you want to fly up to Manchester, Leeds, Newcastle etc. you'll still need the original EU England; unless of course, you also get the True Earth Great Britain Central.

    Thank you. So if I will still need my existing addon airports, and TEGB is summer only, is there any real advantage to it?
