The appearance of the Fraser River was spot on and it has that silty colour year round, the only thing missing in that regard was the turbulent nature of the river in many places (it flows pretty quickly in the areas they were flying). I wonder if that is something they will be able to add to MSFS at some point: flowing river water, animated waterfalls etc...? The evergreen trees were pretty good in the sim for that particular area, but there are more deciduous mixed in and particularly deciduous shrub near the river bank in reality. Also, the river banks are typically either mud or mixed boulders with many rather large washed up tree stumps in various places; in very few places can you land a plane that close to the Fraser river edge. That would be a lot to expect MSFS to render the world that accurately - who knows what the future holds though? Thanks for this. Yes indeed, the tree size is not the only issue, the variety is one too. People often wrongly imagine the NW and Alaska are all conifers. But the whole segment is really convincing in spite of minor deficiencies and one day, who knows, we may have a « stumps, solid sandbars and white waters » addon 😄 !
