Lower/Medium-end PC's might have difficulty running EDDS Stuttgart due to the highly detailed terminal, interior and other buildings.

Stuttgart International Airport (EDDS), is an international airport opened in 1939, it is the main airport in Stuttgart, In 2022, the airport handled 11.0 Million passengers  on 85.600 total flights. This makes Stuttgart the sixth busiest airport in Germany with 11,832,634 passengers having passed through its doors in 2018.

We have created a very highly detail version of Stuttgart International Airport and the surrounding area with all of the latest technologies when it comes to 3D modelling and scenery development. We have focused on great performance together with very high detail including an interior and custom ground and building modeling covering the whole airport including landside.

As of 2023, Stuttgart is a HUB for Condor, Eurowings and TUI Fly Deutschland using a big variation of aircraft types in and out of Stuttgart. with the airport also being served by many other big national and charter airlines all year round!

Make EDDS Stuttgart Airport your next destination and explore this big German airport like never before!

Disappointing performance with the 4080 Super—definitely not what I expected. I can't recommend it.

Another developer that doesnt care about optimization, performance absolutely unusable, even after uninstalling the default asobo airport.

The airport looks great, but the fps take a significant hit due to the main building, which doesn't seem to be well optimized. My flight went from EDDH (with Simwings scenery) to EDDS, and I left EDDH with 49 fps, and had to go around in EDDS because my fps did drop to 8fps. When at stand, the fps vary between 24fps when looking away from the main building, and 8 fps when looking directly at the main building. So at the moment it is not usable for me.

I've just finished my first flight to the airport and after reading some negative reviews about the performance I must say that my experience was very smooth. The airport is just the RDPresets' top quality. I hope that everybody is aware that it is necessary to remove the Asobo's version of EDDS via Content Manager before using this addon airport.

When will I learn to read reviews. Airport is so heavy on frames its unflyable. Please can the developer optimise this airport ASAP. Surley you can test this prior to release we don't all have a super computer. Airport looks amazing but this is a flight sim.

Absolutely beautiful airport. Immensely detailed inside and out. My new base of operations for sure. I see there are complaints of performance. I am getting 70-80 FPS using DX12 and Frame Generation with the Fenix A320. But do note I have an i9-13900K and RTX 4090.

This is possibly one of the most beautiful airports in MSFS, with amazing surroundings and great attention to detail in and out of the terminal. Unfortunately, the airport's performance is terrible. I average out less FPS than sceneries such as KSFO by FlightBeam and KJFK by Ini, two much larger and equally detailed airports. The performance starts hitting the moment you look at the passenger terminals. 

It would be nice to have an option to disable many of the frame hogs. The possible hundreds of 3D passengers modeled in the terminal and hundreds of cars parked in the open or within multi-floor parking lots are completely unnecessary. There is no reason why the El-Bank and other hotels need a 3D interior instead of a simple yet nice-looking parallax texture. I appreciate many of the details, and once again, I reiterate that this is possibly one of the best-looking airports in MSFS, but one needs to consider the performance when doing these things, and giving users the options to disable many of these details would possibly significantly help with frames.

I love the airport, and I love RD sceneries, I simply wish it was more enjoyable to consistently fly into the airport and not suffer massive FPS loss the moment you exit the runway.
