Try the FS2004 freeware scenery list for the UK

[Jimmy]

yeah tried that, not th best results, I was looking more for first hand experiance with some scenery, its hard to know what to download and not what too when having no knoldge of that part of the world and the "quility" scenery designers..

But I will have anothor look threw that list, it is a good resource

i wish i knew i'm afraid jimmy. there are meshes about linked on that site, but freeware landclass or roads/coastlines are not something i've ever found for GB. There are also not many free airportsof much quality. Ever considered flying finland or sweden? you can make them look absolutely spectacular for no pennies.

There is heaps of payware scenery for the UK, especially the VFR photoreal coverage.

As for freeware, I can only think of the Humber Bridge and BAe factory which are near Humberside airport, which can be found here: http://library.avsim.net/search.php?Sea ... CatID=root

[Jimmy]

okay, yeah I have considerd getting the photoreal stuff trolly. Expensive for me right now but deffinaly in the future sometime

I'll just put up with the defualt then, maby get some new landclass from of that scenery list thingy.

That part of the world looks amazing in FS, my favourite spot round there is Haukasen in Norway (ENSG), read this post for more info: http://flyawaysimulation.com/posts10353 ... ght=norway
