Conclusion by Avsim.com:
"In summary, this is a wonderful scenery add-on and enhances the otherwise drab and desolate area of what is a beautiful part of the world. Being a big fan of Barcelona, and having visited it a few times (and therefore having gone through the airport) I found this to be a very true representation of the airport and a great up to date version adding the likes of the new T1 to the flight simulation world.What sets this product apart though is the high level of detail to areas of the airport otherwise forgotten by many developers out there. Adding high quality landside areas and in combination with AES lite means that it is a great, true to life product that will put a smile on your face as soon as you see the many cars come and go on the busy airport roads."

Conclusion by FlightSim.com:
"I am more than impressed with this airport, it has features that are top-notch, with high-quality textures, great custom buildings, AES lite operations with realistic and `smart` ground traffic and a complete, and amazing package. For those who fly Iberia in FSX, or those who just love Spain, or recreate their past vacations or even careers, this is one of the best airport add-ons for flight simulator, and is a definite go-to destination, for international travel. Add-ons like this are what make FSX better than its predecessors are; with the most realistic features."

Conclusion by simFlight.com:
"Overall Barcelona X is a very nice addon and has all the elements to make it a worthwhile purchase. I was especially impressed with the apron traffic and their recreation of the unique looking Terminal 1 building. If you have any interest in flying around the Mediterranean area you should seriously consider this airport for all it has to offer in both visual appeal and fly ability."
