Conclusion by asn-xp.aerosoft.com (Aerosoft Sim News):
"After writing long reports, I often reflect whether or not it makes sense to do a summary. The answer is yes and no. No because there`s already tons of information to be taken in, but on the other hand there is so much it is possible you might have missed something. OK, let me try to keep things simple. I will begin with the obvious: `is it worth purchasing such a large European airport?` That question is quickly answered, YES! It’s not cheap, but it is worth the money since it covers an important airport within the European hubs. If you prefer to fly long stretches to the United States of America, the US offers you many superb airports, but also within Europe there are some extremely high quality airports too, like Dublin, Amsterdam, Moscow Sheremetyevo, Tallinn or even Mykonos and the upcoming Manchester airport. Anyway, EGLL from Aerosoft is the same as Amsterdam Schiphol is for the Netherlands, a great starting point..."
