Float Plane Bases for FSX

Postby Flying Trucker » Tue Nov 18, 2008 1:11 pm

Good afternoon all... :)

Hope I am in the right forum and not sure if these questions have been asked before.

I purchased Canada/Alaska Scenery for FS2004 when it came out and it will not work for FSX.

I was wondering if there is some new scenery for Bush Flying which includes other float aircraft, boats, camps, bases etc for FSX.

I do not think Canada in general, Ontario specifically are depicted well in any version of Microsoft Simulator.

I don't have any specific recommendations, as I don't use FSX, but you may want to browse through this website:

Thanks for the link SeanTK...will have a look... ;)

Just did a flight in FS X from two seaplane bases in Michigan...no docks and no other floatplanes...some boats...that is about it.

Nothing to do with scenery, but this gives a list of fsx water runways.
Hope this link works, if not just google it

:)      I printed it out and put it in a binder.

Doug,

Here are some packages to look at. They will provide plenty of bush and seaplane bases with scenery.. These are all available in SimV's FSX Scenery downloads.

FSX Victoria-by Holger Sandmann and crew-2 part download-http://www.simviation.com/simviation/static.php?ID=63&page=11

Sceneries by Chris "Mocat" Carel:

Snow Dogs Tours-V2.0 and Part V-http://www.simviation.com/simviation/?ID=63&page=2&mark=443- (Should you run across parts I, II and III, you don't need them as they're included in V2.)

Also his Caribbean Seaplane Tours, 8 packages plus a Acceleration/SP2 fix. (not sure all 8 packages are on SimV)....

...and Land's End Seaplanes-will eventually connect Caribbean Seaplane and Snow Dog Tours up the east coast and across the northern states-2 packages so far.

These are all large downloads. Mocat's sceneries may slow weaker systems some due to large textures with no mips.....but they're all fun sceneries.

Dave

At that time [1909] the chief engineer was almost always the chief test pilot as well. That had the fortunate result of eliminating poor engineering early in aviation.
