Great Places To Fly Around

Postby usapatriot » Sun Sep 14, 2008 8:52 am

I have absolutely no idea which places in FSX are best to fly around in scenery wise, can anyone give me some recommendations.

Default: try flying the Grand Canyon fast and low

also try (if you like) photoreal add-ons like whale-island (NZL) - have a look...

Puerto Ayrenes Chile for awsome river valley with lots of sheer cliffs and mountains with rivers and a huge bay that opens into the Atlantic.

Also, if you do cross country flights in a slower aircraft, while flying low, you're going to see more scenery than in a jet at FL300+ ;)

Install the freeware 10m mesh for the Alps and go fly around Interlaken, it doesn't look too bad...
