Vancouver Scenery for FSX?

Featured Replies

Any decent YVR scenery for FSX? I know FS Dream Team has one in the making, but is there anything I can use

in the meantime?

Won't cover the airport itself, but you can get Orbx PNW and Vancouver+ 3 to make the city and surrounding terrain look really nice.

As Ryan stated above, Orbx PNW is a great package but YVR is only Mildly spruced up. Don grovestein (hope I didn't butcher his name) has some freeware scenery for YYJ Victoria that looks pretty good. Search his name in the avsim library.

 

FSDT is going to make a great rendition of YVR! And I will be sure to point out any missed/inaccuracies as I am at YVR almost ever weekend spotting, so needless to say, I know the area well!

There's two versions of Vancouver Airport in the Avsim Library, both by Nigel Grant: -

 

cyvr5.zip for use without Vancouver+

 

and

 

cyvr+.zip for use with Vancouver+

 

Both are pretty decent addons.

I'll put in a plug for Vancouver+ 3.

 

It covers quite an area and looks gorgeous!

Thanks for the replies guys. Anyone know the name of that really well done YVR freeware for fs9? I forgot the name of the developer, but I'm wondering if it's FSX compatible.

you are probably thinking about Jon Gabbert's?

not sure what would happen if you brought it into FSX, i guess no harm in trying ;)

I installed it and the scenery looks great except for the fact that the ground scenery bleeds through. I have used it and it is quite distracting. I am patiently (no wait, impatiently) waiting for the FSDreamteam version.
