John Tavendale reminded me about Kansai, very nice stuff !!It's Kazuhiro Miyazaki, made for FS 2002, but compatible FS 9. Check his other japanese sceneries, they are looking very nice !http://flightinfo.ens.ne.jp/sfs/Another link for detailed Irish sceneries :http://www.ifsd.ie/index.html

I haven't tried them all, but many of the sceneries by Bill Melichar are excellent. St Kitts and Tahiti are my latest favorites. He has many sceneries around the Caribbean, Mexico and French Polynesia. Just search on his name and you will find pages of payware quality scenery. Also, not sure what qualifies as scenery, but FS Sky World 2004 by FSW is excellent as well. Without the many higher performance cloud options, I think I would be stuck flying in VFR only conditions :)There are so many others which have already been mentioned as well.

I enjoy addons that improve all scenery (or large areas), not just one specific airport...Along those lines, the most dramatic changes I've seen in FS have come from free water textures.Remember, water textures and reflection textures are different things.For water textures, I love which is a front end to install [link:library.avsim.net/esearch.php?CatID=root&Name=&FileName=OCEANS%3FX.ZIP&Author=&DLID=&Sort=Name&ScanMode=1&Go=Change+View|Ed Truthan`s water effects and textures] in FS2004. Having tried MANY, these are my favorite. Several others (which are based on the above textures, I believe) include [link:library.avsim.net/esearch.php?CatID=fs2004misc&DLID=43631|"morewatr.zip"] by various authors compiled by Kevin Rangel and [link:library.avsim.net/esearch.php?CatID=fs2004scen&DLID=42746|"Water Zone"] by Pete Drazzof, Lynn & Bill Lyons, Daniel Buechter, Ed Truthan.For reflections - you must get [link:portal.fsgenesis.net/modules.php?op=modload&name=UpDownload&file=index&req=viewdownloaddetails&lid=6&ttitle=Vater_(Vilk's_Water)]Vilk`s Water or "vater.zip" from FSGenesis' community freeware download section...IMHO, none come close to the true environmental appearace of Vater.

and if you click the freeflow link in scott's signature, you'll find some of the finest opportunities to test the water textures--the coastlines and waterways of new england freeflow is second to no scenery i know. just check out the silt around river mouths!...anyone heard that scratching sound? :-)

http://www.jg-laurent.com/en/Follow this link to what has to be the most comprehensive carribean scenery availale. Its airports, mesh, and landclass. Brings the Antiles island chains to life and its very well done.Also have to recommend the St. Malo scenery (LFRD) for Dinard France. Its one of the better freeware sceneries I have ever seen.Hornit

Even better than the list she added to the library, is her scenery website listing hosted by Avsim (thank you Heather and Avsim).http://fly-heather.avsim.net/Thomas Perry

I agree with you Joseph. Budi Santoso's Jakarta "Soekarno-Hatta" airport is absolutely breathtaking and a gem! Too bad it isn't available on AVSIM. I think also that in real-life, the actual airport is very beautiful and colourful too, so this helps.Bill Melichar's sceneries of Oceania (Pacific Islands) and of KLAX and more recently, his Mexico City airport are also very beautiful.John

File Description:Greek Airports Project created the International Airport of famous ZAKYNTHOS in GREECE. This work lasted in total one and a half month before arrives to you. The scenery contains the more basic buildings of the Airport as this has been shaped after the completion of the works of the new terminal construction and it consists exclusively of Gmax and 3Dmax objects, which ensures many frames in your simulator.DOWNLOAD LINKhttp://library.avsim.net/esearch.php?CatID...scen&DLID=91470
