May 28, 200917 yr Conventional wisdom seems to be that for low and slow- FSX beats FS9.To test that thesis, I recently did a multi leg flight through the BC Coast Mtns. It's an area I know quite well from 4x4ing many of the mountain logging roads years ago.I can certify that FS9 with Can/AK Ultimate Terrain & Ground Environment, is pretty accurate as to detail and, with a 45" wide view on triple monitors, you really are there as you coax your plane thru' winding mountain passes.What you see in these tiny "postcards" (AVSIM screenie restriction) is about 10% of what my eyes receive. That's 90% more pixels or 3072 x 768 resolultion! And these tiny pics make everything seem like looking thru' binocs the wrong way! I see everything as 3 times closer!Visualize the scene 3 times wider and higher- almost as wide as normal human 180
