Glacier Bay and then some! FTX Southern Alaska (SAK) offers much more than "just" the famous cruise ship destinations of coastal Alaska. It covers a whopping 200,000 square miles from Anchorage to Watson Lake (Yukon Territory), and Kenai to Juneau, with Valdez, Skagway, and Whitehorse as other major hubs. A wide variety of landscapes -- coastal fjords, braided rivers, spectacular glaciers, alpine tundra, lake-dotted muskegs, vast forests, and a few urban centers -- all have been recreated in great detail and accuracy. A dozen key landmark areas are featured with seasonal photoreal coverage an

The next in our expansion into the UK and Europe. Wales is a country that is part of the United Kingdom and the island of Great Britain. Bordered by England to the east and the Irish Sea to the west, much of Wales' diverse landscape is mountainous. The Capital of Wales is a de facto designation usually applied to Cardiff since 1955. Although it shares a close political and social history with the rest of Great Britain, the country has retained a distinct cultural identity and is officially bilingual. Over 580,000 Welsh language speakers live in Wales, where it is spoken by a majority of the po

Some of you may have reached a certain maturity (Hi, John!) and may be interested to learn that Orbx and the Flight Sim Store are now offering a discount to senior simmers. Here's the link: http://www.orbxsystems.com/forum/topic/54483-senior-discounts-a-joint-orbxfss-initiative/ You'll need to be registered with the Orbx forum to see the info, but I think you'll find it useful.

Quote from John Venema CEO Orbx Simulation Systems Yesterday I sneaked in a "soft" announcement hidden inside a topic to gauge reaction. Needless to say it has been overwhelmingly positive. This project has been top secret and only a few people inside Orbx itself knew of its existence. This has been a product I have wanted to release for quite some time but only now do we have the depth of textures to cover the globe in a semi-realistic manner. In 2013 we will be releasing a FTX product for FSX and Prepar3D that covers the entire world with FTX textures combined from the twelve different reg

The Eighth Wonder of the World. Orbx's first NZ airport is in one of New Zealand's most famous tourist destinations. Milford Sound is a fjord in the south west of New Zealand's South Island. It is situated within the Fiordland National Park, Piopiotahi Marine Reserve and the Te Wahipounamu World Heritage Site. This is another stunning piece of artwork by Andreas Hegi and Heiko Glatthorn and they have created 3 airports for you to enjoy here. Included with Milford Sound Airport is NZMJ Martins Bay and the very tricky T004 Quintin Lodge. A perfect compliment to our award winning New Zealand Sou

Like, this weekend!! From post by John Venema on OrBX Forums. Hello everyone. I guess this is the news perhaps a few people have been waiting for Yesterday we achieved a major milestone in that our Hampshire UK studio (SIM720) handed off the final code to Orbx to prepare the first master installer for final testing. I had the pleasure of looking over a developer's shoulder for a while yesterday while he was flying in a Spitfire and I have to say this region is a jaw-dropper and it really does feel exactly like England, especially since I've flown it many times in both light aircraft and c
