December 17, 201411 yr Author Mark, Coa1117 beats me for the answer to your question. Regards, Aharon Can someone tell me where i can get the scenery for EFRO (FSX)? Thanks Peter www.tatukantomaa.net/EFRO_update/EFROX.zipwww.tatukantomaa.net/EFRO_update/FSX_Main.zip
December 17, 201411 yr www.tatukantomaa.net/EFRO_update/EFROX.zipwww.tatukantomaa.net/EFRO_update/FSX_Main.zip Very nice scenery, Aharon. I tried the FISD version of Rovaniemi last year but it was for FS9 and hadn't been optimized for FSX, so performance was not good. This is great. Thank a lot for the links. - Jev McKee, AVSIM member since 2006. Specs: i7-2600K oc to 4.7GHz, 8GB, GTX580-1.5GB, 512GB SSD, Saitek Pro Flight Yoke System, FSX-Acceleration
