Thank you so much for your nice comments !

Timser - sorry m8 i don't have Messenger.

I know now that 256 MB Ram on the graphic card is absolut necessary. With 128 MB it takes a bit to much rendering time...

However - this is the greatest thing what i saw so far in a flight simulation. You can fly around for hours without get bored one second. There are also AI flight shows - i will get some shots soon... :o

Hey Mango,

Those shots are AWESOME, When I first started looking at them I thought that you actually was flying a real plane and took digital photos of your flight, then I realized they were screenshots :o That scenery is so incredible.

P.S. Now I'm glad that you and Coffeebreakpro talked me into getting the card I have now which is the 256mb 9600xt rather than just the 128mb one :o

Mango, what area is coverd with the scenery? Is it all of Switzerland?

And how well do the textures match with the mesh?

Thanks again everybody for your awesome comments ! :o

Switzerland Pro covers whole Switzerland and have it's own mesh. I guess the most precise mesh (and landclass) ever made for FS9. So far i know more than 30.000 sattelite and aerial photographes where used...

Yesterday i watched a flight show with the Patrouille de Suisse at the Axalp...  :o

Is that the particle accelarator in shot 9, or a very large trafic island roundabout?
