I am absolutely awed by George Grimshaws Logan Airport... :o

Are there any other airports in similar quality?

If your talking freeware, (this may be cheating) Gary Summons Gatwick/Heathrow Pro come as a 'demo', but are completely functional. Gatwick 'only' (lol) has a huge blue cube in the middle of the runway that tells you it needs to be activated, and Heathrow has a 'demo' grid at all for touchdown zones at the end of the runways. They are amazing airports, and quiet possibly Gatwick is the best scenary addon for FS full stop. As soon as I work out a way to get money, I'm buying both!

Cheers,

Make sure you get a Courchevelle scenery.  As far as I know, its one of the most unique airports in the world, with a sloping runway!  There are several versions out, but from what I've read, this one is the current runner.  There are, of course, others.

Yeah I tried that and had to say wasnt to fond of it...
I don't know many airports as well as courchevel, and that one was sort of innacurate. I have to admit, Ive seen some screenshots recently that made me think that the author has made some changes, may be time for a re-install...

For Courchevel, theres the Neuroflight version or the version availible in the Altiports package by Guy Nemoz.

Thomas Kwongs Hong Kong?

Any of ISD's stuff:
Rome Fiumicino
Milano Malpensa
Milano Linate / Milano Bresso
Venezia Tessera & Venezia San Nicolo

Or:
Madrid Barajas?

As you probably know, these are all pretty well known, so you might already have them. Just thought it was worth a mention just incase!

Cheers,

Alex
