FTX and Vancouver+ for FSX

Filed under: Development, FSX, Flight Simulation, Flightsim, Products, Vancouver — jonpatch @ 8:14 am

Many of you are probably familiar with the brilliant renditions of Australian scenery by ORBX, the FTX series.  With the continued help of Holger Sandmann, they are now working on North America, bit by bit, starting with the Pacific NorthWest.  Entitled FTX NA Blue, here’s the coverage area and some screenshots of Vancouver Island.  Note all of Vancouver Island will be covered, but the Northeast corner coveragee of Vancouver+ will not.

I’ll be working with the FTX team and FSAddon to adapt Vancouver+ for FTX so that existing Vancouver+ users can enjoy the new improved landscape FTX will provide, and FTX  NA Blue owners who don’t have Vancouver+ will have the opportunity of having the features of Vancouver+ in an addon product at a reasonable price.
