Where can I find that, it sounds cool.


Can't find it here but search for "ZSHC" over at AVSIM. Bremerton can be downloaded from either FSAddon or AVSIM.


Default scenic areas would be most anyplace in the Misty Fjiords area of Alaska. Misty Fjiords payware add on only enhances this. It's a nice area as is in FS. Washington state has a lot of great scenery and ditto with Colorado. If you want really big mountains try Nepal. Just make sure you have an airplane that can handle altitude. I tried flying there in a Lake Renegade once and ended up crashing pretty often.  ;D

Hi, if you want to have some scenic airports in Europe try to download LIRF2005 by ISD. It's free and on AVSIM. Put's you on Rome's biggest airport. Stand at the gate and watch busses, cars and trains go by and going to and from the airport. The airport itself is made accurate too.

That scenery is great and even has a marshaller guy on one of the slots. When you tune nav2 the steps and catering truck align with your 'plane. They also have a prize winning scenery for Milan Linate, has the same stuff. ;D

Hey everybody!

I'm responding to Bell206Freak's post - the Puget Sound area (WA) is great. I live around here and have learned the area so much better from the air.

I have been doing some SEA-LAX and up around the Cascades - the fresh water lakes at high altitude are absoultely breathtaking!

That's all I have for now.

question.....since we are talking airports.  Has anyone seen where the add-on to St. Martin Princess Julianne Airport went?  Any help in how/where to download it to would be sweet.  I landed there on my last vacation, what a rush...totally thought we were going to get wet!

thanks!

Always felt that National Airport in Washington DC takes some beating.  Especially if you arrive at night, from the north, with the city floodlit.  This is landing the default DH88 Comet there.
