Some of the planes in the demo of FlyTampa-Tampa look crappy. The engines are are ridged and the plane overall has poor quality.

Please note I have the Demo, if that is different then the bought version. I just wanted to know if some of the planes looked like this when before I bought it. I would put a picture to show you, but I dont know how. Other than this, everything else is fine!

Yes, the static planes look like that. All our sceneries are developed focusing on AI traffic. With that in mind, the "static airlines" that come optional with our sceneries are to be considered an "afterthought". They have in fact only be hacked in later because of a few requests.

So unless you absolutely need static aircraft within sceneries I wouldn't recommend installing that option and using AI instead. That is how we run these sceneries ourselves.

What does 'Static' mean?

To me static aircraft in sceneries means an outdated pre-FS2000 feature. the only legitimate use I can see is for people who fly online and can't use AI. But even online it would of course be nicer to fly into an airport that is populated by other real pilots.
