Better to go around than to force a landing. Makes you a good pilot in my eyes. But really check out the freeware. With that, the mountains are in place and the airport shows nice details and clues.
Expect me to be on the Kathmandu - Paro route, still trying to fly both places. And I seem to form up a habit about killing the ground mechanic. :-/
This is how the freeware Kathmandu airport looks like. There's plenty of detail around the field. I really recommend that one from Avsim.
Let us know how it works out with the scenery, Windy.
Here's what ASE gave me on my last Paro attempts. A cloud layer right above the airfield. Thanks! Well, the landing on rw15 worked (the picture is from taxiing back) mainly because I've landed so many times before.
The payware airport looks nice. Not stellar, but nice. 15 Euros. However, there's no real gain over the freeware (except for the ground photo and nicer textures) which already offers the layout and terrain setup. And the payware also recommends installing the freeware mesh from Avsim to get rid of errors with the default FSX mesh. For users of FSGlobal, this is not a needed step though.
