Any airports or sceneries, big or small, that make good use of walkaround mode?

Just wondering if anyone has some sceneries that they feel make really good use of walk around mode?

If by “good use” you mean sceneries that provide a level of detail and realism that make “walking around” pleasant and interesting (and showcase the potential of FS24), then here are a few commercial products I like:

There’s an Antarctica thing on simmarket that’s like a mini museum. From Byrds explorations

TFFJ Saint Barths by SLH sim designs allows you to walk upstairs and also use a working lift that takes you into the control tower or stop on the second floor without using the stairs. Absolutely top notch amazing scenery!
