If its not ground scenery, then where in the heck did you get that ground scenery at.  I am looking for good ground scenery for the USA.  I do have UTX although I am somewhat unhappy with it. But what you have is amazing.

Besided this, the cloud shadows are also amazing! When do we get it? When...When?  :)

Very nice scenery in the background i believe it might FTX no? I will have to agree with CG-1976 about that it could be the introduction of cloud shadows, the sim does look better with clouds shadows. Reminds me of the "flight i never took" through the clouds and then got lost after in playing in those high clouds I didn't know where the airport was... :P, clouds looked exactly like that. Good times, good times.

Cloud shadows? H... H... ho.... I mean... how, how? I recently told someone that this was impossible due to the limitations of the engine and now you make me a liar? How dare you! I hate you!!

Fantastic.
I fly over large areas that may be forested and this tends to look dark. I'm wondering what the overall effect may look like ? Anyhow reality rules !
