I've never felt so frustrated....... died so frequently/spectacularly/or needlessly....... yet had so much fun, in a long time.

Hi Paul,

Yep, this looks good, but doesn't cover enough area for the price tag.... especially when saving for a new car! :lol: It seems the next release is only Orkney and Shetland too which is disapointing. I know several Scottish simmers and we've spoken about these releases and they have all said that as beautiful as the Islands are, it only make up abou 10% of their Scottish simming time. :)

Which bit is it covering. The grey bit or the yellow bit?

The tiny yellow bit :agree: , it must make it the most expensive virtual real estate in FSX so far. Perhaps it is the oil.....or the SNP! :lol:
I love Horizon stuff but I am not paying out for that, I would have to fly VFR over hundreds of miles of un-realistic Scottish default land to reach there. I just wish they had worked up from the South or even done Ulster! I hope Dave G gets a free copy as they have been using his Auster in the publicity shots!!!

For £30 I think I'll wait for the rest of Scotland first.

If I had a job and there wasn't a recession I might be tempted. Wouldn't £5 be more realistic?
