stars.dat; excellent!

[Guest Pabra]

Last night read about accurate stars and a link for more of them, well I can assure you it's nothing short of spectacular; this is exactly how I see ac passing overhead at clear winternights. No frame hits. I love it! Nightflying is getting interesting for astonomers.

Pabra,Where did you read about them?

[Guest WorkingStiff]

He's probably referring to Real Stars v1.0 for for Flight Simulator 2002. You can find it at http://www.b314clipper.comNext click on "Support" then "Downloads" and scroll down to the supplimentary files. I would provide the exact link but there is a lot of other useful stuff on the page you may want to look at also.
