VFR Pilot - FRANCE for P3D V4/V5

"VFR Pilot - FRANCE" is an add-on for Lockheed Martin® Prepar3D® which covers the entire French territory with a brand new landscape designed to bring the best experience in VFR flying. This add-on consists following 3 add-ons:

• TRUElandscape for land cover and high resolution hydrographic network
• NEXTMesh for the ultra high resolution terrain mesh (Islands included)
• Obstacles & Reperes VFR for SIA obstacles and thousands of VFR landmarks (Islands included)

The ambition of this product is to provide a simple, lightweight and compact VFR package that is a true reference to simulate air navigation and procedures. The VFR pilot and/or simmer can work or reproduce his flights in a suitable environment incorporating the visual elements essential to VFR flight, in addition to the entire radionav infrastructure.

It thus becomes possible to prepare navigations with relevant turning points, reporting points,... and to realize them in homogeneous and immersive conditions throughout the territory.

"VFR Pilot - FRANCE" is "THE" must-have product for VFR flying in France!
