Custom scenery for the area in and around Innsbruck, Austria, is now available for downloading. | Custom scenery for the area in and around Innsbruck, Austria, is now available for downloading. The scenery currently covers a 1x1 degree area containing parts of Austria and Germany, and makes use of accurate data from the [http://www.eea.europa.eu Corine Land Cover], and [http://www.openstreetmap.org Open Street Map] projects. Three airports lie within this area, Innsbruck LOWI towards the south western end in Austria, and EDHR + EDMK on the northern end in Germany. See the forum topic [http://flightgear.org/forums/viewtopic.php?f=5&t=5350 here] for more details, pictures, and links to download the scenery. | ||
- | See [http://fgfs.i-net.hu/modules/fgtracker/?FUNCT=FLIGHT&FLIGHTID=973183 here]for a route that will take you on a nice tour around the scenery. The route starts and ends at Innsbruck LOWI, with visits to Lake Walchensee, Tegernsee, and Achensee. I recommend an amphibious plane such as the De Havilland Beaver on floats (--aircraft=dhc2F), so you can make stops at these beautiful alpine lakes and enjoy the view. | ||
