Good shot.
That new Duxford scenery is for FSX and FS9, so everybody's happy.
The previous version I had, plus AI, could produce no more than 4FPS and so reluctantly got dumped.
(I did pinch some of its AI for a Wanaka airshow pack though)
This one is smooth as... just brilliant.

I see in this morning's paper there's an ad for a Duxford "Flying Legends" Tour mid-2012, just 9 grand or so.
For a little extra, you get RIAT thrown in. Mmm.

There's often discussion about "Eye Candy" and "How Authentic" a scenery is.
The latter excites the natives, the former sells in the USA.
This one is both; flying around - no make that walking around - you notice the detailing, like signage on the service entrance, that the locals will swear is correct.
Then, as you draw back, and look at the overall package, you look at how beautiful it is, how the AI flows naturally, how buttersmooth the display.
No sim should go without...

This post here at SOH by John Terrell shows the detailing well...I didn't even know those details existed as I have yet to do a walk around...
