All of the airports/airfields in this tour are in the FSX list. I'm hoping to include more custom airfields in my next tour :lol:

Ah it's just twigged with me! to make it look more realistic, I believe that the shoreline has to be more distanced from the trees! There are only a couple of places in Australia where gumtrees extend to the waters edge, and most of them are here on the NSW South Coast! If there was a larger, more irregular shoreline then I believe it would look fantastic. What do you reckon?

Very smooth shots!

Yeah kinda agree, but I still think FTX looks much more realistic compared to default textures :lol:

Thanks for your comment Haysie.
