It is here now folks: the photoreal scenery of the Grand Canyon area. The scenery is for FSX SP2 only, it has got a resolution of 2m/pixel, autogen and nightlights, Summer season only. The main airport of the area, KGCN (Grand Canyon Natural Park) has been dramatically improved. It is a stunning scenery, created by Antonio C., and Maurizio G. The photoreal scenery is based on the latest techniques, to ensure a real visual experience in flight. Colorado river has animated water in the parts where it's bigger. Here a quick overview of the area it concerns:



and some quick shots from the area {SMILIES_PATH}/icon_e_smile.gif

This is an excellent piece of scenery.
But surely it is completely out of place in OZX.

Of course Jack but we are called "Freeware for Australia & The World" for good reason {SMILIES_PATH}/icon_e_smile.gif

Downloading now. Fantastic work!!!

We are for scenery for all the world. When the FTX scenery expands into other parts of the world, I'm sure we'll see a few strips hosted here for them. {SMILIES_PATH}/icon_e_smile.gif I'm delighted that this scenery has a home here. {SMILIES_PATH}/icon_e_smile.gif

Thank so much guys! {SMILIES_PATH}/icon_redface.gif For first i wish to THANK Jay and all the OZx team, Antonio encharged me to thank everybody for the opportunity you gave him to publish the scenery, and obviously i make the same thanks.
I know that the site has been created for first for the Australian area, anyway it's a place where you also learn to develop, and i have learnt a lot here. The Australian territory is covered here by a pro team, who is doing an excellent work. Nothing equal on the net..... I started to work on the italian territory, as hobby, but improving myself once time learnt, and i am happy if OZx is becoming international for others area covered also with my contribute {SMILIES_PATH}/icon_e_smile.gif
The main idea, i believe, is to get good freeware scenery to enjoy.... {SMILIES_PATH}/icon_razz.gif

Selfishly, I'm glad you guys are "world"-renowned. Trying to download it now, but the server seems to have a temporary hiccup!!

[JayKae]

Hmmmm I just tried myself and it seemed to come down fine maybe try again now Bart?

I've been having a problem for the past 12 hours - the progress box on the downloader just stays at ??? / ??? (0%)
Is there only one download site? {SMILIES_PATH}/icon_question.gif

[JayKae]

No, there is 4 mate, however the fact that the ???/??? is coming up is indicating to me that no contact can be made to the outside world by the installer so I would suggest to check for your Internet Security software's permissions for the small downloader.

Maurizio and Antonio, these pictures look amazing! Downloading soon, fantastic stuff - you have spoiled us! {SMILIES_PATH}/wink.gif

Hi Jay-
Thanks for the tip - I had removed Trend Micro last week and installed the free AVG instead. Its' firewall was the problem. I just installed the scenery - but have to run off to work (UGH!) - fly later.
Thanks again.

Hi JayKae,
