FS-X: Hope B.C. ... Wheres the Fraser River??

Recommended Posts

Have a look at CYHE...Used to be one of my favorite places for a quick flight, from Hope BC to Chilliwack BC, but with FS-X the Fraser River is missing? Can anyone else can confirm that just want to make sure its not some mesh I added...P.S The Mountains look great with 19m mesh!

Yes, the Fraser ends north of Chilliwack. Most of the entire Fraser-Thompson River system does not exist in FSX. In general in Canada and the US there is accuracy and abundance of hydrology around urban areas, further away it can fade to nothing. IMHO hydrology addons will be a must have for the continental US and Canada. Elsewhere in the world the FSX water is much better. Besides the US and Canada, Ireland and Slovakia are also missing most or all of their hydrology.Alaska came from a better data source, and has lots more water.Jon

A note of clarification from an offline comment: Alaska hydrology is extensive in FSX (relative to the continental US), but it is not reported to be accurate. The rest of the world is probably hit and miss on accuracy as well. Jon
