Problems

UK Scenery - Where do you start?

It would not be fair to describe scenery design as easy. In most cases it can be but there are a few traps to be found along the way. The release of the VisualFlight photoscenery has added some more. Here I will comment on three in particular.

Grid datum problems

An explanation as to why you may find your objects located in the wrong position when building scenery for the VFGM scenery.
