Anyone know how to get rid of this?

Anyone know what is causing this sky color warping?  I know it's a darker blue the higher up in the sky you are but it looks so unrealistic to me.  Is there any way to correct this?  Thanks!

Which sim are you using, P3Dv4, 5, or 6? 

First, your visibility is way too far, which makes everything look unrealistic.  Try setting 100 miles max for high altitude.

Are you using a weather addon?

With EA off, you can get some better sky textures, either freeware or payware.

Not sure how you would adjust that.

In AS, Options>Visibility Options>Maximum surface visibility>75 0r less.

Intel i7 6700K @4.3. 32gb Gskill 3200 RAM. Z170x Gigabyte m/b. 28" LG HD monitor. Win 10 Home. 500g Samsung 960 as Windows home. 1 Gb Mushkin SSD for P3D. GTX 1080 8gb.

Here is a thread on AVSIM that may help you. It is a cloud generation tweak from a fellow simmer. I was using EnvShade before I found this...no longer need Envshade. As far as reference to cloud distances, poster might have been referring to a setting in Active Sky, the weather generation program. Well worth a look and purchase IMO

Good luck.

Try turning on EA and see if things look better.
