I bought myself these little presents for Christmas and I have just installed them.
At first I wasn't impressed but it turns out I had them in the wrong order in the scenery file because now the result with the two combined is awesome!
I flew round Snowdonia and could make out all the hills, flew round Snowdon Horseshoe and across to Moel Hebog.
Even alone FS Terrain makes such a difference! For example did you know there were mountains in the alps and the pyrenees? indeed Yes it would seem so. In the alps too I flew over Mont Blanc. And hey theres even a recognisable rock at Gibralter.

VFR Photographic Scenery: England and Wales....
Fine above 2000 feet AGL... ;D...!
Below that, and on the ground...forget it... :'(...!

Remember its just a flat photograph laid over the scenery, (nothing sticking up, like 3D objects!)... ::)...!

Cheers all... ;D...!

Paul...a bit disappointed with it... ::)...!
