This is an add-on to our Flight Gear Flight
Simulator. This is a 3 DVD disk set of HIGH RESOLUTION scenery of the entire
world!! Over 12 Gigabytes of scenery across the entire globe!
This 3 DVD set comes with a grid map telling you which scenery file
covers which location. Please note, this set DOES NOT
include the Flight Simulator software itself. That is for sale
separately in our ebay store! Every green box below represents a
scenery file included on this DVD set. Since there is no scenery
above an ocean, there are obviously no unique scenery files for those:
The entire USA, Canada,
Mexico, South America, Europe, Asia, Australia, etc. The whole
world! Over 20,000 airports to choose from! The best deal
around.

Extensive and Accurate
World Scenery Data Base
- Over 20,000 real world airports included in the full scenery
set.
- Correct runway markings and placement, correct runway and
approach lighting.
- Taxiways available for many larger airports (even including the
green center line lights when appropriate.)
- Sloping runways (runways change elevation like they usually do
in real life.)
- Directional airport lighting that smoothly changes intensity as
your relative view direction changes.
- Accurate terrain worldwide, based on the most recently released
SRTM terrain data.) 3 arc second resolution (about 90m post spacing)
for North and South America, Europe, Asia, Africa, and Australia.
- Scenery includes all vmap0 lakes, rivers, roads, railroads,
cities, towns, land cover, etc.
- Nice scenery night lighting with ground lighting concentrated in
urban areas (based on real maps) and headlights visible on major
highways. This allows for realistic night VFR flying with the
ability to spot towns and cities and follow roads.
- Scenery tiles are paged (loaded/unloaded) in a separate thread
to minimize the frame rate hit when you need to load new areas.
Accurate and Detailed Sky
Model
FlightGear implements
extremely accurate time of day modeling with correctly placed sun, moon,
stars, and planets for the specified time and date. FlightGear can track
the current computer clock time in order to correctly place the sun,
moon, stars, etc. in their current and proper place relative to the
earth. If it's dawn in Sydney right now, it's dawn in the sim right now
when you locate yourself in virtual Sydney. The sun, moon, stars, and
planets all follow their correct courses through the sky. This modeling
also correctly takes into account seasonal effects so you have 24 hour
days north of the arctic circle in the summer, etc. We also illuminate
the correctly placed moon with the correctly placed sun to get the
correct phase of the moon for the current time/date, just like in real
life.
Note: This 3 DVD set does
not contain the FlightGear program. That is for sale separately in
our store.
