• There seems to be an uptick in Political comments in recent months. Those of us who are long time members of the site know that Political and Religious content has been banned for years. Nothing has changed. Please leave all political and religious comments out of the forums.

    If you recently joined the forums you were not presented with this restriction in the terms of service. This was due to a conversion error when we went from vBulletin to Xenforo. We have updated our terms of service to reflect these corrections.

    Please note any post refering to a politician will be considered political even if it is intended to be humor. Our experience is these topics have a way of dividing the forums and causing deep resentment among members. It is a poison to the community. We appreciate compliance with the rules.

Interesting Freeware Scenery

Yep, Blue Sky puts out some pretty amazing photoreal scenery packages as freeware. I have quite a few of them loaded in FSX. Their latest is Glacier National Park, MT. They offer two versions: a low res 4.7m/pix package that most systems will handle and a high res 1.2m/pix for better rigs. The high res package consists of 72 145 sq km grids for a total of 10440 sq km! They have both FS9 and FSX versions available. It goes from south of Kalispell all the way to the Canadian border and east past Babb, MT. That's a pretty big area especially if you're into low and slow. Each grid must be D/L'd separately, and it's time consuming, but IMHO well worth it! Besides, ya can't beat the price! :woot:
