I think the sceneries from Holger won't work in FSX.
I tried them once, and all I got was duplicated shore lines and a lot of terrain type conflicts.
From what I saw, the problem comes from the installation procedure: you have to "disable" some of the default FS scenery/landclass files, which are listed in the readme. Unfortunately, in FSX the names are different, so you can't disable anything and in the end you get those terrain conflicts.

I wish I could install his Glacier Bay or North Cascade sceneries, but my last tries were epic fails...

Thanks Daube, that's what I was afraid of. I really going to miss it. But at least Snow Dog Tours is nice.
