How far does scenery like this extend?
This is what FS11 should look like!

yes this is a game
it is a R/C plane flight simulator/trainer...as for as i can tell with the demo you are locked to one spot but have 360 degree's of view...these shots are one of the photoreal sceneries
I might have to pick this up when my taxes come in lol

I've had the Real-Flight G3 R/C Sim since it's first release. It's a great way to learn to fly R/C airplanes. It's also a lot harder to fly an airplane in then the Flight Sim. You really have to pay attention and stay with it. Touchy Touchy
Also pretty expensive. It cost right at $200.00 back about five wears ago. I guess that's not so expensive when look at what it cost you when you wipe out a real life model R/C model airplane.
And I've smashed up a few. Not a laughing matter.

The photo real scenery is not 3d, it is an image that is just a background. That being said, they do make obstructions hard objects that will damage the plane. A competing sim came to our airport and modelled it just like that. They simply take a series of pictures and match them all into one continous image. It takes a little more than that to import it into the simulator and model the ground and obstructions, but it looks amazing when its done.
