Features of Svalbard4XPlane
Svalbard4XPlane is a quite realistic representation of Svalbard for the flight simulator X-Plane. The Norwegian archipelago is located in the Arctic Ocean north of the Polar circle between 74. and 81. latitude and is not covered by the X-Plane default installation. So the scenery package Svalbard4XPlane does not only fill a gap in the X-Plane…

Antarctic and Subantarctic Maps for X-Plane
