Hello
First of all, my apologies if I am not posting in the good thread and if my english is sometimes unintelligible (I am french and translations can give sometimes bizarre results).
I am "flying", since a few days, within the 3 airfields of "Dangerous Airports 1".
The sceneries are absolutely superb for each of them and my pleasure "flying" around there is very great.
Concerning the fps, they are very high for Matekane and Barra and high for Mountain Air ... apart, unfortunately, when on final on runway 32.
At this point, fps fall under 10 (6-10) in cockpit view until I go past the aircraft parking.
There is no or very few amelioration when lowering the sceneries settings and putting weather to clear sky (minimum settings). At most, fps are a bit closer to 10 (9-10).
Can I ameliorate my performances ?
Patrick
