From Microsoft Flight: Welcome to our latest Microsoft Flight News update! We are happy to announce some new postings.

History: In November we added a new section to the “News” item to provide messages and communications direct from the Microsoft Flight Developers.

In December we introduced a new section to the web site to showcase some in-process screen shots from the game.

New in January, we’ve added 4 new screen shots to show our continued progress with the environment. We have also added a January News from the Team update to cover a concern we’ve heard though the Tell Microsoft Flight alias: Online vs. Offline gameplay.

Getmapping’s aerial photographic survey of Scotland is being compiled into a comprehensive set of terrain scenery by Horizon Simulation for the popular Microsoft Flight Simulator, ‘Generation X’ edition. The first volume which complements scenery of the whole of England and Wales was the Western Isles. It has been closely followed by the Shetland and Orkney Islands. These form part of a planned series of five ultra-high definition photographic sceneries, published by Playsims, that will ultimately cover the whole of mainland Scotland and its outlying islands.

Real Flight Environment, the new flightsim community has opened a brand new webpage www.realflightenvironment.weebly.com featuring new products and releases for Flight Simulator.

Real Flight Environment develops quality flight simulator addons for FSX and FS2004 that enhance your flying and simming experience. The new webpage has opened up a new forum to the flightsim fans and to guests! Which means you don't have to register for a Real Flight Environment account in order to participate in the last flight simulator discussion topics.
