Looking forward to hearing more, as long as it doesn't hit fps at all I'll certainly pick this up.

Well its finally installed and all i can say is....WOW....! ! !
Slightly better FPS for some reason....
Everything nearly cranked to max....locked at 25 FPS and hitting 25 FPS....8800GTX card installed....
Some screenies as promised.....still learning to use the interface which is very polished and easy to use....
The download process is a tad tricky at the moment with huge interest but at $40 (20 quid) i think this is the bargain of the century......a must have add on..... :prayer:

4 GIG!!!!
That is bigger (by far) than FSX itself! Why do these people think we all have fast download speeds and un-limited HD capacity, it is good value, but unless it is available (at a similar price) on CD, I have no chance of getting it!

I don't find the Sea looks very realistic or perhaps it's just the general colour which seems a bit off :think:

Ok Tony
That makes sense
A lot of elements like warmth and tone can be lost in screenshots.
Good to here that a DVD can be delivered anywhere in the world.......I guess that's why you had to download it :think: :roll:
