Ooh, I didn't notice them at first. So it has ppl, too? Static scenery? Only saw cars moving about.Well, define "landing".
I thoroughly checked the CTLS cockpit and couldn't find the "VTOL" switch, so at a guess I'd say no for a proper landing. I'll let you know once we have helicopters!
As for bridges, given that this level of photogrammetry has a hard time understanding the "under" of suspended things or any kind of hollow structure, bridges are almost invariably a funky mess. Look at how happy are those tiny tourists squished "under" St. Peter's colonnade!

Oof. :/

I wish I was English like my hero Tj.
I finally did my first ILS landing! I used the Cessna 172 G1000 model, as I'm mostly interested in smaller general aviation planes anyway.
This video was super helpful in walking you through the process:

PSA: disable the VFR map in your top toolbar and gain fps and/or (in my case) reduce CPU load spikes/stuttering.
Yeah, well I gave up on the CJ4 Citation and went back to the Baron G58, which is possibly the best plane I tried so far. That one has bugs too, but at least nothing game braking.
This is a beta - but a ridiculously beautiful and enjoyable beta.
I'm currently outbound real-time from Sydney (travelled here from Europe 1:1 via Russia, China, Philippines) towards Lord Howe Island, then towards the South Pacific.
Even simple scenes like this right now, sublime... If any GPU will deliver this in VR, it will be very-very hard to resist to buy.

This makes the Hutton run look like a child's play, doesn't it?
True words.
(Did I just hear "helicopters"?)
The only people you'll see moving around are the service crews at airports, towing and servicing crafts. But you'll see plenty of tiny ants on photogrammetry tourist spots. A particularly relevant one is the bridge near San Marco square in Venice from which you can see the famous "Ponte dei Sospiri"; you can clearly see it crowded from quite some altitude.

You had ONE job!!
Boy am I glad the buildings autogen at my place works so good instead 
Found on YT some footage of a landing at Turin-Aeritalia. Wildly different lighting conditions and awful resolution, I know, but still...and it isn't even photogrammetry
Also, yesterday I made a complete video of my flight around my (quite beautiful, I must admit
) area, from the rough take off to the completely pants landing. Must be boring as hell to just watch, but it was pure bliss to fly. Also, headtracking!

Is Milford Sound and its surroundings OK? Southerland Falls are not far away from there, 500+m in three steps, plus a couple of fjords and alpine lakes.
Just landed on Lord Howe Island, it was nice but not as scenic as expected (recorded it, might post later). I guess mapping has issues with properly recreating dramatic cliffs and landscapes.

It wasn't boring, but some reason it was SD only.

That's probably because it was still fresh out of YT's oven. Full-res elaboration may take a while, depending on the length of the video. Much to the chagrin of my poor old PC, I can assure you I made it in 1080p and high-end preset. (And it quite shows, simulators hold well at low fps, head tracking quite less so. Still, it adds 10x enjoyment to an already incredible experience)
Was about to touch down on a Pennsylvania to North Carolina flight in mid atc communication and suddenly was at desktop like the game never was... Mildly annoyed.
I missed the performance options in my Nvidia Panel and it indeed gave me around 10FPS in "crowded" areas. Thanks for posting the vid!
The surrounding area is ok. I came from the east, over the mountains. The approach was quite great, descending at 0 throttle from the mountains to shed speed, the airfield was sorrounded by tall trees, was going to be a tight landing, when suddenly "what the fig is that!" lol.
If somebody showed me this picture like a year ago and said its from a flight simulator I would just laugh:
So I was looking up FSeconomy and saw some people on reddit talking about On Air, looks pretty cool. Anyone here have any experience with it? https://www.onair.company/
