Recently I became a FSGenesis Galaxy member and received all the mesh cd's which includes NZ. Now the question is: Since I have Christian Stock's 75m freeware mesh already installed, is the FSGenesis better or should I just leave Christian's mesh as the active one? I also have Christian's landclass installed.

Christian's mesh is derived from the same data which produced his 20 metre mesh, downscaled to 75 metres. FSGenesis is derived from SRTM 90 metre data, upscaled to 75 metres. This, plus the fact that the SRTM data has problems in NZ (the infamous Milford Sound, for instance) makes Christian's mesh a much better choice.
If you search NZFF for 'SRTM' you'll get a good idea of what the issues are.

Thanks Robin. I'll keep Christian's then. I had a feeling that this would be the correct choice.

Anyhow A few days ago read the instructions for seemed like the hundredth time (bit slow on the uptake...head injured)
and managed to load it correctly with a few tickleups on FS9 scenery. Decided to do a clean install of FS9 to cure issues arrising from loading Wilco and PMDG bits and now it seems I have deleted my file of Roads and Rivers!!!
