I would rather have seen the two 'extra ones' included in the base pack with San Juan and Nassau as the add ons.  I think LGA and MCI fit into most peoples view of "North America" than San Juan and Nassau. 

World Airports 2 was a complete frame hog, any news that this one is any better for FS9?

Hi,

World Airports 3 is frame rate friendly, although bear in mind that highly detailed airport scenery in a major urban area will inevitability lead to some frame rate loss

Thanks

Do you have any idea why San Juan and Nassau were chosen over LGA and MCI for the original five?

Hi ppgstf,

That was just the decision that we came to when coming up with the extra packs. We appreciate your input but I'm afraid that we won't be changing that decision

Thanks

I didn't expect you to, I only asked because I thought that San Juan and Nassau were extremely strange choices to have in in a North American airport package.  San Juan is considered North American but my atlas clearly puts Nassau in the Bahamas! I'm sure simmers would have prefered LGA and MCI in the original package with the option to purchase the other two.

I think we both know that had the package been the other way round, not many would have chosen Nassau and San Juan as extra purchases, thus reducing your chance to get extra revenue from the product.  I won't be buying it (I know that's my choice) for just 3 airports, however good and frame friendly they are.
