Hi,
I'm thinking about flying from the Midwest USA to Asia to check things out because I've never flown there before. Does FS2002 had good senery out there and if so where should I fly into? I'll be flying in using an A330-200.

I don't fly much outside of the US because the scenery is so bad. I wouldn't go to Asia without adding scenery.

If you are determined to use the default scenery it looks like there are sceneries (I peeked in the scenery folder) for Tokyo and Hong Kong.

Thanks Webb! Those were actually the two destinations I had in mind. Are there any other good places to fly too with default scenery outside of the US that you've flown to or can think of? I'm trying to break the bonds of the lower 48 and explore a bit. Takes so long to get everywhere though but oh well, takes almost the same amount of time in real life!

Alaska and Hawaii are good. Hawaii is so small you can fly around the whole thing in a couple of hours or just the big island in under an hour. Alaska, of course, is huge, with lots of hills and mountains and little airstrips in the middle of nowhere.

Outside of the US I stick with Western Europe. The scenery isn't as good as the US but there are some cities.

You can find some interesting routes here.

You're welcome.

Come on back any time. This old FS02 forum can get awfully lonely.

Don't I know it! There's a few of us still using it yet though.

I've finally installed FS2004 on my last revamped ~~disputer~~ computer but still have 2k2 installed; I've also transferred 2k2 scenery into CFS1, particularly when I was making my own Flying Tiger missions. As Webb states, it's not the best default scenery.

It's been many, many years since I've used FS2002, but from what it looks like in the addon world, you may enjoy Norway.

I can remember it took me AGES to want to change from my FS 2002 to my FS 2004.
I had got so used to daily enjoying FS 2002, and my Chums on Sim V kept trying to encourage me to join the FS 2004 crowd.... Grin

I finally made the change-over, and now I am thoroughly enjoying my FS 2004, with all my added bits and bobs!... Smiley
