If your a flight sim fan, and you want to breathe some new life into the ol' girl, FSGENISIS has a sale on that gives you (as far as i can tell) every terrain mesh add on they have for 43 bucks canadian. I took the plunge and bought it, downloaded it overnight (10.5 gigs) and i am truly amazed with how much more it adds to my simming experience.
Any true MFS fan will understand when i say that there are many many add ons for flight sim that just arnt worth the money they expect you to pay, but yet, there are some who's value are top notch, Id definatly say that this is one of them. Cant beat the price for what your getting for sure!!
......................default.. ..fsgenesis
Mexico resolution 612m.. ..38m
Canada resolution. 76m.. ..19m

As you can see the "rest of the world", and the united states get the biggest boost to the resolutions, but canada's resolution is pretty damn good too.
I took some screenshots in case you were wondering what kind of difference it would make for your sim ( NON simmers wont know what default looks like, and i didnt take before an after shots, so you can just enjoy some nice FSX shots, meby they'll woo you into joining the simmers world ;) )
Here is a shot over Banff, of the canadian rockies, with terrain mesh resolution of 19m
This shot is just outside of Valemont BC
This shot is in south america, at Rio De Janeiro
These next few shots are in the Alps near Sion, Switzerland
And who can resist flying through the Grand Canyon when it looks like this??
