All you need to know: Aircraft = Real Air Spitfire, Scenery = Orbx Tamworth (YSTW), and VOZ 1.5 photoreal scenery.

Absolute travesty, clipping the wings of a Spitfire...

Trolly that scenery is remarkable.
I haven't delved into VOZ for a while, what's the extent of the photoreal?
What does 1.5 offer?

Nice shots Trolly - the Realair Spit is a beauty - this is a coincidence I just downloaded Tamworth last night (and the entire VOZ over the last few days) and went on a couple of circuits in a 150 - I was going to post some screenshots but you bet me to it.

The scenery is pretty good for freeware - heavy on frames with all the AI (a training school is based there with a heap of Airtrainers in RL - there are AI Airtrainers galore)

Charl - VOZ 1.5 offers:
Team VOZ is pleased to announce that version 1.5 of one of the world's most popular addons for FS2004, VOZ Freeware scenery covering all of Australia is now available for download. Version 1.5 adds dozens of new airports and scenery updates, photoreal areas to depict beaches, racecourses and a substantial upgrade to Sydney metro area with landclass, roads, corrected urban areas and more


I wouldn't know the difference anyway from 1.4 as I installed all versions of VOZ in one session.

Indeed, the elliptical wing variant is far more elegant. Thought I'd give this version a try seeing that I had it on my machine though.

what's the extent of the photoreal?
What does 1.5 offer?

The photoreal is in two strips next to each other, 2500km sq kiolmeters in total over some 4.8m terrain. For some reason, it only covers half of Tamworth city, living a large landclass patch up the middle, in the centre of which, the new Tamworth airport is situated (and thats a further download all together).

I'm not particually sure whats actually new in 1.5, but along with the other varients of VOZ, I know it includes "175 airports, 75 scenery areas, unique textures for the entire country with seasonal variations, and updates all the major capital city international airports." Have a flick through the manual here for more info: http://fsfiles.org/files/VOZ_User_GuideV1_50.zip

Yeah definitly, it took me a while to figure what was causing the problem there. Works fine when you set Airline (not GA) AI to 0%
