I love New Zealand.  Interesting terrain, and since I like to fly with active weather, and am on Mountain Time, my evening sessions often find me in NZ or Papua New Guinea.  So I was very pumped when I saw the opening screen tiles for 'Bespoke Airports', POI, Discovery Flights, Landing Challenges (which featured a savage Cub - one of my favourites)....BUT

3 Discovery Flights

4 landing challenges (with the cub as one)

3 Bush Trips

Yet, I cannot find these in the Sim.  Is there a disconnect here?  The only landing challenge for NZ is landing a citation at Queenstown.  Where are the other 3?  Do they exist? 

 

ADVthanksANCE for anyone who can point me to the NZ cub landing challenge!!

Did you install them?

Hmmm didn't know one had to do that - I just assumed they were touting the sim update for NZ.  Does this imply all the content (including terrain updates) needs to be installed?  Marketplace I am guessing, but not sure (don't have sim open RN).

 

Thanks for the tip!

It does. Like all Worldupdates. World Updates always need to be installed through the marketplace.

Got it.  That worked!  Thanks folks!!

One more question...are there notes that accompany these updates?  It brags about 9 Bespoke airports, 62 POI etc..  I would like to hit all of them - POIs at least appear on the map, but which 9 airports does not.  It would be nice to have names for these (and also for all the other updates around the world), so I could visit them to check em out.  I looked around in sim, but could not find anything.

So do add-on Airports. Look for the ones with a yellow star next to them.

All information about the World Updates is posted on Flightsimulator.com but unless you know when a specific World Update was released it is difficult to find the exact page.
Google should be able to find it for you though.

This is the page for the last World Update  (New Zealand): World Update XII: New Zealand Now Available! - Microsoft Flight Simulator

All World Updates (12 sofar) are in the Marketplace (for free) and can be installed through there. They are optional but highly recommended. There might also be a few airports and aircraft in de marketplace that are free as well.

Don’t know if this is relevant for you, but I think some activities can’t be downloaded if you’re missing other downloads.

I don’t have the iniBuilds 310 which I think is necessary for one of the activities, so I didn’t get that activity (all my choice).

Here’s a list of all the handcrafted airports in MSFS thus far. Very handy to have this bookmarked somewhere.

I made a map after the NZ update for the 8  bespoke:

Fantastic folks!  Thanks so much for the meaningful feedback.  Love this sim.  (except when it doesn't work - which is all too often IMO)

 

Off to explore... 😉
