So far one of the best parts of the new Microsoft Flight Scenery is the detailed scenery there for you to explore. As in the real world, the English Lake District is a particularly scenic area. Thanks to Neil's Tours MSFS 2020 pilots have Wainwright's Week, a guide to the district that follows on from his versions for FSX and Prepar3D. Revewer John O'Rourke greatly enjoyed the guided tour and wholeheartedly recommends it to others.

The Canary Islands make for a great holiday destination and Prepar3D pilots are lucky to have a whole series of great scenery packages from Sim-Wings covering the various major islands. In this review Alex Dickinson looks at their Canary Islands Professional - Gran Canarias package. He found the scenery of the island and its two airports had a wonderful amount of detail offering lots of flying enjoyment.

While the Majestic Q400 is already a very advanced aircraft simulation for Prepar3D v4/v5, adding the FS2Crew - Majestic Dash 8 Q400 Special Bundle Pack brings the realism to a whole new level. The package gives you a flight crew to interactive with, using realistic standard procedures. Reviewer Richard Nurse was very impressed with the result, calling it one of the best utilities on the market.

Taburet already has quite an extensive range of airport enhancements for the new Microsoft Flight Simulator. In this article, reviewer Neil Birch takes a look as his Lydd Airport, a medium size field located in Kent, England. Neil found the default scenery to be quite lacking, with Taburet's being a vast improvement, and a great starting point to explore some beautiful surroundings.

Pilots need to be able to turn their heads and look in different directions, both inside and outside the cockpit. Doing this requires additional hardware and software, but SmoothTrack is by far the least expensive answer, and the only hardware required is your smartphone's camera. Can something this simple possibly work? Reviewer Stuart McGregor tried it with X-Plane (it works with many other sims and games as well) and found it easy to set up and worked well.

A lot goes on on the ground before takeoff and after landing. Using Ultimate Ground Crew X with FSX or P3D makes those operations very realistic, by adding pushbacks, marshallers, animated ground crew, tow trucks and more, all operating just like in the real world. Reviewer Richard Nurse was very impressed with how FS2Crew took the simming experience up another level.

As his previous op-eds clearly indicate, Kenneth J. Kerr is genuinely enthusiastic about the new Microsoft Flight Simulator. Yet the current state of MSFS 2020 has him frustrated. The latest patches broke the add-on scenery and aircraft that he intended to write about, so he changed course and took on his view on the state of things and where he would like to see them go.

Little country airfields are great destinations if you're flying a light plane and out doing some sightseeing. Taburet has created a nice destination on the east coast of England with Fishburn Airfield. Reviewer Neil Birch loved the experience of visiting with all the little details, bringing back memories of visiting the real field years ago.
