Cool shots. Good choice of aircraft and in NZ colours. Where did you get that scenery for the mountains?

The Switzerland Pro X scenery is nice, but it was my most expensive add-on ever. With postage, it works out at around NZ$322 (130 Euros plus postage), so it is not cheap.

See what a bargain we get with RealNZ scenery!!.

smooth landings.

I cant quite make out if that is photoreal or generated from landclass + textures? what is it?

I believe that it is photoreal only, as the manual states, "AUTOGEN does not work with this scenery. Placing objects at random would not be very realistic in a scenery that in itself is “as real as it gets". This highly detailed scenery which covers the whole of Switzerland was based on 30'000 aerial photos with a resolution of 4.8 m/Pixel that were taken between 1995 and 1996. The terrain model with a resolution of 20 meters makes sure that every small hill is now visible. The vertical accuracy in the lowlands is around 3-5m and 7-10m in the mountainous regions and the mesh itself reproduces the actual elevation at the Surface.

Some great results though!!

smooth landings.
