Hi all,I would like to know some of the best photoscenery addon for VFR flying, either freeware or payware. Thanks !Daniel

Hi Daniel,How about....-FranceVFR Alpes Scenery (payware)-Megascenery series (payware)-Georender national parks series (payware)-FlightZone (great combo of photo scenery and accurate terrain, but payware)- Tucson photoreal from Dan Relfe (freeware)- All the stuff from Kevin Burns like Sedona, AZ etc freeware here in the library.- the Italian photoscenery from Angelo Lanzillotta here in the library- New Zealand scenery from Robin Corn (free- and payware)- Holger Sandmann: Himalayan Peaks Volume 2 - Mt. Everest photoreal- Old Rhinebeck Aerodrome by Joe Binka (photoreal airport)And some other, greatly recommended Checkian scenery (Jensiko or something like that, but I can't exactly remember that name, but you must get hold of that one cause it's great..)Rob "Holland&Holland" de Vries http://fool.exler.ru/sm/fly2.gif"To go up, pull the stick back.

Switzerland Pro from Flylogic is amazing and joins up well with France VFR so you can fly from e.g. Nice right through the French Alps into Switzerland.VFR UK from Horizon is very good. Then there's this, http://mazzokan.altervista.org/ Sicily, southern Italy and Italian islands. http://www.blueskyscenery.com/ is superb for LA and Hawaii.Happy sightseeingJohn

freeflow sceneries are pretty nice... they have FL, bahamas, and bermuda

BlueSky scenery. not just photoscenery, but also hi-res. freeware.scott s..

Hi all,Thanks for your replies ! I think only photoscenery can give me realistic feeling. Would like to know if the Misty Fjord series is photoscenery or not.Daniel

You can always take a look for yourself...:)But...Nope no photo scenery. I'm an photo scenery addict, just like you. But Holgers stuff is just awesome. So Misty Fjords, Tongass Fjords and the upcoming Glacier Bay v2 are just very very immersive. Totally focused on Bush and Seat of the pants Flying...you can't go wrong with this stuff.One special other good recommendation/combination:MegaScenery Pacific North West photo sceneryUTUSAUT CANADA/ALASKAGeorender rural airports (photo scenery)Fly Tampa Seattle (KSEA) photo sceneryFlightScenery's FlightZone2 (Portland&surroundings: photo scenery, accurate terrain)Holger Sandmann's Columbia Gorge SceneryThey all fit together like a glove...:) Flying vast area's of immersive scenery.Ah oh..if you like to 'photorize' your default scenery. Use Ground Environment (Professional). Together with UTUSA and the other mentioned ad dons and you will experience FLYING...:-hahhttp://forums.avsim.net/user_files/166540.jpgTell me if you really wouldn't like this...and tell me if you can see the boundary between photo scenery (FZ02) and ground environment professional with Holger's Columbia Gorge Scenery...;)Rob "Holland&Holland" de Vries http://fool.exler.ru/sm/fly2.gif"To go up, pull the stick back.

Hi,This is really awesome. I asked about Misty Fjord because I am not sure which to buy : Alaska Cinematic or Misty Fjord. I have checked their homepages but there are only limited screenshots. Both received high credit from different sources. Do they overlap the same Alaska area ?Daniel

nope...they don't. Misty Fjords combines with Tongass Fjords and Glacier Bay v2 and gives you a fair amount of detailed (photoreal) airports and accurate terrain with custom textures :)Rob "Holland&Holland" de Vries http://fool.exler.ru/sm/fly2.gif"To go up, pull the stick back.
