Anybody has any good DC scenery to suggest? I searched most of the free sites and there ain't any except for Dulles Int'l. I know they must have taken everything off after 9/11 as they don't want any want to be terrorist to learn how to fly a 747 into the Whitehouse lawn. I flew over the fs9 default DC. Nothing there except autogen ugly houses and large piece of grassland. Those fellows from Mircorsoft must have forgotton there is such a piece of software call Google earth. Anybody with the nuke effect can nuke DC anyday with or without the white house in it in fs9! Cool

No problem searching for some good DC scenery.

But folks...... maybe let's keep the discussions about "nuking" anything to a minimum in this thread......... since the subject of any supposed connections between terrorism and flight simming is a very sensitive one in the flight sim community in general, and also potentially in the political community of an international forum.

This simple scenery search could go off the "deep end" into a clearly political discussion very easily.

Thanks.

best,

Though it is not photo terrain/scenery, there are many custom buildings representing the D.C. monuments and landmark buildings in the default FS9 scenery.

Depart Reagan, rwy 1, and you should see the Pentagon on your left and the Washington Monument dead ahead. Over the Washington Monument you'll see the mall lined with landmarks from the Lincoln Memorial to the Capitol.

Scenery density must be 'normal' or higher.
