Is it worth getting Orbx Open LC North America for Greenland?

Dear Community,
I would love flying to Greenland, as it is a special place on earth, and you can use it perfectly for a refueling stop in a smaller plane, or fly up there in an airliner. Unfortunetely Greenland doesn't look nice at all, even with Orbx Global, Orbx Open LC Europe and Terra Flora V2. As Qeqqata X is also not compatible with P3D anymore, I wanted to ask you, if it is worth getting Open LC North America, and if it would improve Greenland somehow. Does someone have any screenshots of the area around Kangerlussuaq Airport (BGSF), with Open LC North America?

Regards,

Thank you for trying to help me, but I'm using P3D and need a solution for Greenland in that sim, as you can't fly with that. I'm not sure if Vector would help.

 

I have Global Vector installed. That is what you see in the images above.

Out of interest I went to BGFS in MSFS and XP11.

 

Three from MSFS

Two from XP11

That looks quite impressive, the only issue in P3D is this mountain "wall" in front of the airport, as you can see in X-Plane 11 and MSFS, the mountains are lower there, and also on the left of the airport, but not exactly in front of the RWY, as it is in P3D. I would be so happy, if there would be a mesh addon, or a fix for that.

I don't know if there is a solution for you in P3D. I did a quick search for both payware and freeware but did not find anything.

Unfortunately there is no one yet, Kangerlussuaq (BGSF) is the largest airport in Greenland, and without the correct mesh, it is impossible to fly from there. I could also get myself Orbx Vector, and use the freeware Narsasuaq (BGBW) scenery by the freeware Orbx Global Airports Pack, as the RWY there is 1830 m long.
