At Price: £29.35 (inc VAT), for area covered,

Hi Paul,
Yep, this looks good, but doesn't cover enough area for the price tag.... especially when saving for a new car!
It seems the next release is only Orkney and Shetland too which is disapointing. I know several Scottish simmers and we've spoken about these releases and they have all said that as beautiful as the Islands are, it only make up abou 10% of their Scottish simming time.

Which bit is it covering. The grey bit or the yellow bit?

The tiny yellow bit
, it must make it the most expensive virtual real estate in FSX so far. Perhaps it is the oil.....or the SNP!
I love Horizon stuff but I am not paying out for that, I would have to fly VFR over hundreds of miles of un-realistic Scottish default land to reach there. I just wish they had worked up from the South or even done Ulster! I hope Dave G gets a free copy as they have been using his Auster in the publicity shots!!!

For £30 I think I'll wait for the rest of Scotland first.

Maybe we could release our own, covering the white bit

In 5 parts my email told me this morning...!!!! 30 quid each....150 quid for Scotland....
Sorry but thats a tiny bit (wee) ridiculous...!!!!
i'd pay a fiver for a good rendition of Hadrian's Wall...But 150 notes....nahhhh.....and just when i bought the other bits for England....
(disclaimer....i take no responsibilty for what this chap just said about Hadrian's Wall)
When i worked at Lossie the jocks had a good sense of Humour...hope its still in place.....

If I had a job and there wasn't a recession I might be tempted. Wouldn't £5 be more realistic?
