And if you don't want to go the payware route there is a freeware version at flightsim, dca2002.zip is the filename (it does work in FS9).Then download these files at avsim3altfix.zip - The BGL files set the FS9 airport elevations allowing AFCAD files to work properly with the scenery.lb_kdca_sa.zip - AFCAD for the scenery.

I use Cloud9 for the airport, Megascenery photoreal for the area at 4.8m and then there was freeware scenery for the D.C. area - upgrade of the mall, some buildings and hi-res 1.2m ground textures. All blended in pretty darn nice. The immersion was great when using the "river approach". Brought back fond memories of when I lived there.Clutch

I would agree totally - I use the same combination and the ultimate effect is very good. The Cloud9/FSDT version of DCA is excellent in itself.Bill
