I just reduce the "sight distance" in "Weather", to a low figure, to show the scene around me more realistically....distant haze.

Most times of the year, the distance is always hazy....heat haze, smoke, fog, mist, low cloud, etc...

This can always be observed during flights in a real aircraft.

Thanks Paul,

I think if you had it as default in all weather conditions in all parts of the World, for each flight you would have to change it again to suit the local weather conditions!

Each time I fly, the conditions are different, either requiring another Flight Sim setting, or what is observed following a "Real Weather" or "REX Weather" selection.

You cant win them all in one go!... ;D...!

Actually...I really like playing around with "Weather" settings for each flight!
