With Microsoft Flight Simulator you can effortlessly travel to places that most of us only dream about. Flying the simulator is a certainly a great way to visit the world.

Based on Flight Simulator's adaptable elevated mesh terrain technology, we've boosted the detail up to 128-fold.

The result is an incredible scenic accuracy bringing the Flight Simulator experience even closer to reality. Step up to the heightened specatacles that World Extreme Landscapes brings to your flights. Additionally, for your "flightseeing" pleasure you'll fly our pre-planned tours in a brand new Vans RV-6A.
