I love Earth Simulation's scenery but I hate the way it renders some GPS features useless.

Hi Anthony. Could you (or someone else) please explain?

Put very simply, the terrain features are removed from the GPS so you cannot tell if you are over land or water and cannot observe coastlines etc. Not good when you consider OrbX scenery presents no such issues.

Gorgeous shots!

Isn't "VFR Photographic Scenery Generation X Orkney&Shetlands" made by "Horizon Simulations" or Am I missing something here? Thought Earth Simulations just resells it on their site, considering they do make products that goes on top of horizon scenery i.e Treescapes.
