Anyone flying extensively in Papua New Guinea

4 of the 5 airports by simmate are PNG (despite strange ICAO)

===================

4 more PNG airports by TBM940

(and a pack 'Indonesian Papua' which are not PNG, it's another nation, on the other Western side of the 'island').

Yep and nope.  I've done several tests in PNG and Papua Indonesia, and Google has never been better. I've seen no difference with the updated Bing, but Google has always been worse in terms of texture res and color matching. 

I will say that Bijan's trees make a large difference here though. 

Thanks. That’s definitely a mod I’m looking at adding now that he’s back. 

@ark Nice choice of films. The Laryi piece showcases the value that locals put on air transport. I should remind everyone that the welcoming party is not part of the default scenery. However, perhaps Umberto will consider modeling them in his GSX-PNG expansion pack. 😉

The Just Flight Caravan overhaul is perfect for PNG. When I'm flying GA I usually fly around the Cape York tho just under PNG.

Ultralights in a mountainous area with all kinds of thermals and turbulence, I don't think so.

I really think that scenery is for P3D and also versions for FSX, not MSFS 2020

Agreed.  I guess if it existed, we'd have it by now. 😞

Who wants the boredom of smooth, laminar air?  Where’s the fun in that? 😂
