Freeware Creator vbazillio has created this mod for Microsoft Flight Simulator - free to download here. This small scenery mod for MSFS was created with a pilot's perspective in mind. The inspiration for the scenery was drawn from aerial views available on Bing and Google maps. To create a more accurate representation of the area, a combination of satellite imagery from MSFS and data sourced from the internet was used. In addition, videos and pictures freely available online were used to enhance the level of detail in the mod. Personal videos taken during visits to the location were also utilized.
