in super high 3D resolution With Flight Simulator, everyone can travel the world. Jump into your favorite plane and you're flying to places that many of us can only dream about. Flying is a great way to visit
Europe. From the green, rolling hills of Scotland
to the coastal waters of Portugal, from the jagged fjords of
Scandanavia to the white sandy beaches of France, from the ski slopes
deep in the Alps to the winding river valleys of the Rhine and over to the
Italian interior, you'll spendor at the European Continent.
By simply adding our European Enhanced Terrain,
we transform these magnificent places into
"eye-popping", visual spectacles. Based on Flight Simulator's adaptable elevated mesh terrain technology, we've boosted the detail 16-fold for Europe. We've replaced the default elevation data with super refined 78 meter info. The result is an incredible scenic accuracy bringing the Flight Simulator experience even closer to reality. For your "flightseeing" pleasure you'll fly our pre-planned tours in the venerable Piper Super Cub. When you fly the Super Cub "low and slow", you'll see the enhanced terrain up-close. Don't miss this trip! |

Normally, the world elevation info for Flight Simulator is accurate to about 1200 meters. The European Enhanced Terrain boosts the resolution to 78 meters, bringing you 16 Times the visual accuracy. You can see from the illustration below that much more detail is revealed when the elevation data points are closer together instead of 1200 meters apart. The result is that the earth is modeled even closer to reality and delivering an incredible visual flight. ![]() click to enlarge |

![]() Those of you who have visited Innsbruck, know that the airport (LOWI) sits in a valley between the high mountains. |
![]() WOW! You can hardly tell that you're at the same airport. What accounts for the transformation is the Enhanced Terrain. |

![]() This area is known as Avon Gorge and is located in the U.K. From this photo, Avon Gorge appears to be quite flat. |
![]() Here's the same area with Enhanced Terrain. Using this elevation boosting technology, even non-hilly areas will show their detail. |
