au blue released

not sure if anyone is interested,
but certainly for low-timers or student pilots in Australia

Flight Terrain X (FTX) has just been released for Flight Sim X couple that with FEX (realistic weather)

& this would set you up for realistic VFR references
very handy for the budding student pilot wanting to conduct some solo nav practise.....

all terrain is produced from aerial photography & whilst there is still an amount of autogen, the difference between default flight sim & FTX is extraordinary

there are some nice screenshots of YMMB in the forums area where developers have been constantly updating viewers.

met some of the guys down at orbx, nice blokes & very keen to producing a quality product, once all Oz regions are done I believe their going to start on some other regions too.
