The original VFR Photographic Scenery, created by Visual Flight and the team that evolved into Horizon Simulation, for the first time put the real world into Microsoft Flight Simulator.

The resolution and accuracy of the aerial photography and terrain data alone make VFR Generation X the most detailed and accurate flight simulation scenery ever released commercially for a flight simulator - including those sceneries used by civilian and military flight training institutions that costs thousands of times the price.
VFR Sceneries are currently being used by thousands of private pilots across the globe, and by commercial and military pilots from some of the world's most revered flying institutions.
