The beauty of Microsoft's Flight Simulator is that you can jump into a plane and fly almost anywhere. Microsoft Flight Simulator's default scenery is great but with World Extreme Landscapes those sublime run-of-the-mill graphical representations become transformed into jaw-dropping, spectacular views!

You might know that standard flight simulator scenery is dependent on elevation data where the points are separated by 1200 metres. World Extreme Landscapes uses Microsoft Flight Simulator's default adaptable elevated mesh terrain technology and boosts its accuracy to an amazing 78 metres and in some locations 38 metres thereby delivering an increase in detail of up to 128 times! The result is incredibly scenic accuracy which brings the Flight Simulator experience even closer to reality.

World Extreme Landscapes includes 13GB of redefined data which will make your jaw drop as you fly over the South American Andes, the highlands of Kenya, the mountain ranges of the Himalayas, the jungles of Indonesia to name but a few of the breathtaking views as you travel around the globe.

Select one of the many "flight seeing trips" included with this exciting package and pilot a new RV-6A aircraft which will take you to places you've only dreamed about so far.

  • Soar over the dizzying heights of the Himalayas
  • The dense jungles of the Amazon
  • The picturesque Alps
  • The rugged headwaters of the Nile

Packed onto 3 DVD's and at an RRP of only £24.99, step up to and enjoy the endless supply of adventures that a world-class product like World Extreme Landscapes can bring to your next flight sim session!

World Extreme Landscapes will be available from August 26th 2005.
