Woah, if I'm not mistaken that's Costa Rica's flag. That's uh quite the detail for a Central American country. I'm assuming it's some sort of popular destination if it's getting that kind of detailing.

It is a pretty popular vacation destination for the US and Canada.

It just gets better and better with every Discovery Series! The amount of work going into this is incredible.

Another episode published from MS, which rubbishes some people's unfounded criticisms of MSFS.

I agree. When the E3 trailer was released I thought it couldn't get any better than that, and yet I am equally impressed with every new footage that is released.

Did I understand correctly, did they somehow edited manually 37000 airports ? Even with the best tools or pipeline I can't imagine how they can do this.
