Wanna race? I'm currently tearing it up at a supersonic 6 kb/s.

Looking forward to seeing how this scenery stacks up, though! I'm curious to see how well it'll mesh with some of the payware scenery I have installed.

20.1 and 12.9 - only 30mins to go, 52%...looking forward to this one.

been flying about now - awesome. I've got the same sort of detail in finland, but it took days for me to organise and compile - this takes seconds to install to truly wonderful effect! Lanclass is so tasty...

Finally got it dowloaded & setup. Quite nice. Well worth the trouble. The scenery is compatible with most of the popular freeware & payware add-ons out there. Quite a lot of 'bang for the buck'....particularly considering it's free!

I guess you won :smile:, I left it downloading and went to bed. Got it now though.

Possibly the best freeware package that will ever be released in dear old FS9 :crying: The only problem I have, is no textures for some of the vehicles, is it me, or did I miss something?

Heh Avsim must have been getting hammered as it took ages to download.
This has got to be the best freeware scenery package ever released.
I mean just look at the airports! :shock:

A fix for this has been posted on the Glacier Bay forum at FS Addon

http://forums.fsaddon.eu/viewtopic.php?p=861

You have to copy all the car*.bmp and truck*.bmp textures in \FSAddon\Alaska Glacier Bay scenery\texture to your main FS9 texture folder.
