Not sure which scenery expansion pack you are talking about. There are a bunch and each one is good for a different person. I like the new Misty Fjords scenery. I also have USA Roads which adds all the roads in the US. It all depends on what, where and how you like to fly.

I usually like flying small planes and flying VFR so the more local sceneries fit my way of flying but someone who likes hauling around in an airliner from country to country would want something that enhances many wide spread large airports and maybe the terrain in their main area of flying.

If you fly mainly US flights in an airliner then you'd want something like a full US terrain mesh and enhancements to all the major airports. If you like VFR flying in Europe then there are many packages for that.

I use FS terrain from justflight, It fixes all elevations throughout Europe and America.  It made a massive difference to the look of the game, It just brought it to life for me. Also I have the roads pack for Scotland and I can't believe the detail they have gone to. Where I live out in the country there are hundreds of tiny single track roads which lead to nowhere, literaly dead ends and every one of them has been included!!

I have FS Terrain and VFR scenery which work together well. Downside is the roads are still almost impossible to recogmise or follow.
There is a scenery pack (cant remember its name) but its in 2 volumes and claims to put all the structures over 300' into the scenery for UK. Essential for VFR flying.
