G'day guys,

Sorry, another dumb question - I was just wondering if there is a fix for the ground 'moving' underneath the aircraft when you pan around at places like Svalbard (Norway) and Thule Airbase in Greenland.

Is it an 'altitude' problem (airport slightly too high for the actual ground)?

Likely is might be the fact that the FS2004 is based upon a cylinder, not a globe.

Correct.  That's one reason why they went to the round world in FSX.

Thanks guys - it's a shame - it's fun to fly to the far north!

Come to the dark side, we have cookies !!
(and round earth, eventually)

This is me flying somewhere over extreme north of Norway/Finland, heading to Murmansk...
