What I like about the water:
1. No longer need full power just to budge in the water. Only 1/4 power or less is needed.
2. Reflections of the terrain, scenery object, boats, aircraft and even cloud formations.
3. The bump-map effect of the water and how it moves naturally rather than just alternate in layers like in FS9.
4. And above all... no bleeding effects of the reflections as seen in FS9.

Did anyone else see if it looks like the bottom of the water moves differently than the surface, so it looks like the parallax is correct?
Overall, FSX water gets a big thumbs up from me.

Also, the the water on runways is a great improvement.
If anyone has not yet done it ... set to rainy weather and take off in spot view.
Home airports are KMGJ and KSWF in Orange County, NY&&Stop by and say hello.
