I have been FSing since my first Tandy 1000.Recntly I have started really enjoying VFR with the Cessna 172 and Ant's Tiger Moth.I have GEX,UTX etc. Is PNW a big improvement and worth the 40.00?I notice it comes dvd or download.Thanks,Ron

Yes!Noel.

Ron,Go to the Orbx FTX site and download the free demo of FTX Pacific Northwest. It is about 435MB and will give you all of the Olympic Peninsula in the state of Washington. No time limit or banners, yours to keep even if you don't purchase the full program. Start out at KCLM, one of the better airports and go from there. You will spend some time tweaking your settings to get things the way to like them but once you do you will be hooked................ That's why it's free ..............http://www.fullterrain.com/JayDub

I also downloadad the demo at first, fly 3 houres and was really impessed and bought it right away. I don´t regret it. I think you will certainly impressed by PNW.

Anything from OrbX is worth every penny spend, plain and simple.

I'm brand new to Orbx since their big sale back in December. Worth every penney, sale or not. I tried the demo first and was immediately convinced. If you want the best possible scenery, Orbx is it.Randall

Going for the demo now.Thanks for all the responses.Ron

One other question.How big is the download?I download GEX NA ,Europe and UTX stuff no problem,but PNW is available on dvd same price as download.I think.Which is recommended.Thanks,Ron

As long as you have a fairly modern and quick PC (circa 2009 or later) you should be fine.Mine struggles a bit with texture loading and low fps near Seattle or Portland.

Thanks,I am going to fly the demo.Ron

Thanks,I am going to fly the demo.Ron

There is a new, separate Portland Cityscapes free download which complementsPNW nicely..

Thanks,I am going to fly the demo.Ron

Really nice.They should bundle the 4 Northwest sceneries at a discount.Or at least give a discount for more than 1 like Nick does for GEX.Ron

As far as picking the download or DVD;With the Download version, you must enter your activation key, purchase date, and purchase order everytime you install it.With the DVD version, there is no DRM, so you can install away with no activation.If you have the patience, buy the DVD.Make sure to install all service packs and Orbx libraries after installing PNW as well, in the correct sequence as well to ensure the best experience!

Thanks,That's what I thought.I juat did the demo and it's great.I hope they will do a bundle discounted like they did for Australia.I posted that in their forum.Who knows,right?Maybe.Ron
