Has anyone here got the Red Baron Cook Island Scenery?

I have seen it advertised and it looks sweet, but I have never read any reviews...

I really should get some people to review it, shouldn't I. I admit I've been a bit slack promoting the Cooks.

All I can say is that you get similar quality to the NZ mesh + topo - only that the Cooks are of course quite little islands. To make up for the small area I added some nice extras like weather themes, airstrips, and some flights. All in all, I find it a nice change - completely different scenery to NZ.

If anyone here owns it, I'd also like to hear some feedback :)

Cheers,
Christian

I definitly think it will be one of my next purchases after REAL NZ Wellington, but would just like some idea of the scale of the island sizes, and distances apart etc..

The islands themselves aren't exactly huge, but are quite varied (ie volcano based vs atoll rings). Distances also vary. I recommend you do a google search on the Cooks to find out more about them (if you google "cook islands map" under images, you should find a good map). There are quite a few islands and most of them have their own airstrip (part of the scenery).

Cheers,

Is that waterclass included? That really looks supurb!

By the way rick66, could you send me a copy of that c206 paint job? I'd like to change the reg to suit myself, but it looks bloody awesome mate, did you create it yourself?

Cheers,
Andrew

Waterclass is included, and it REALLY makes a difference for the atolls!
