'''Scenery''' is the landscape in [[FlightGear]] (or any other simulator). The default version of FlightGear comes with 2 square degrees of scenery near San Francisco, California. The rest of the world is also available via download. Details and accuracy vary from place to place.

The scenery data is released as [[World Scenery]] collections, available through download in 10x10 degree chunks from the [http://flightgear.org/legacy-Downloads/scenery.html the FlightGear website]. Please note that the packages there are only updated very infrequent, instead you can use [[TerraSync]] to download up to date scenery as you fly by.

Some high-quality third-party scenery has also been released for FlightGear. However, because anyone may contribute models or terrain data to the official FlightGear scenery, third-party scenery add-ons are not as common as in other flight simulator projects.
