December 21, 20196 yr I saw the announcement on FSelite earlier and I say this is indeed good news!!!!
December 22, 20196 yr Cool! My native state although I don't live there any more. I hope they do a good job with the shallow water colors offshore, especially in the Florida Keys extending out to Dry Tortugas.

December 22, 20196 yr I lived and flew down there for about three years. In my area the highest terrain was the dike around Lake Okeechobee or maybe an overpass on I75. Am eager for the 'true colors' though - JV said they'd be retroactive for Washington, Oregon and NorCal.

December 22, 20196 yr Author It will be interesting to see if all the excellent freeware airports by Freddy De Pues will be compatible or do they plan to enhance all the airports. There are also a few nice payware airports including a KEYW. Their soon to be released KEYW also looks excellent. MSFS

December 22, 20196 yr Moderator The highest point I remember dealing with when making this was Sugarloaf Mountain at a sweat inducing 95 metres, good luck hiking up that monster 🙂

Since you were on that development team Tony, how about some words on this "True Colour" (spelling).

December 23, 20196 yr A nice release ahead. I remember some great vacations and will visit virtually again. Hope it will work with EYW by X-aviation.

Lots more than Orlando and Disney.
