In this thread from few days ago, it certainly looked like it: (click on Tempest replied to a topic)

Will probably be all of the UK again, I doubt they'd do just Scotland.

Jorg keeps saying improved London photogrammetry is coming, so it's probably with that.

Keep hoping for Brazil but sounds like that has hit a roadblock, as has the Hawaii update.

I already have freeware addon photo scenery for Edinburgh, Glasgow, Dundee and Aberdeen.  Inbuilt versions would be nice along with Inverness, perhaps.  London really does need sorting out as it is terrible.

Some of the photogrammetry for the other UK cities only covers a small (central) part of them and could do with expanding.

Scotland is a really nice place to fly and the west coast is a lot more scenic than the east.

London looks fantastic on my PC in full autogen mode with the ORBx London Landmarks package installed.

I flew inScotland a lifetime ago & when I went back to it in the sim I nearly cried to see so much of it desicrated by all the bloody triffids populating scenic areas - I wish I had guns on anything so I could destroy the lot of those blights on the landscape - just my two bob's worth - would like it if there was an option to go back to an era without wind factories - the buggers also have done it to Sicily where I also did some low level flying - seems every bloody ridge has them on it

I love wind turbines as scenery objects. I recently downloaded a free airport addon (EDLP Paderborn Lippstadt in Germany; apparently the home of Aerosoft), and I noticed that there are a lot of wind turbines in that region.

Yes, those regions are somewhat negelcted... Personally, I am hoping for a World Update Mexico at some point! Was surprised to see how big and diverse this country actually is. There are also some decent addon airports available, but a few more handcrafted ones cannot hurt 😀

I've been using it and the results for me are great. Clearer, more up to date scenery and proper grey roads.

Not intentionally. As mentioned above, there's a lot of red tape to get through for some countries.

And if you are not willing to grease some wheels it will take longer...
