Hello all,
Ingrid has been working hard on the scenery data and we're proud to
release a new version of the Lake Constance custom scenery.
In fact it is not only a scenery of Lake Constance anymore. The new
scenery has lots of the alps east of the Lake Constance, so you can fly
from Fuessen (site of the well-known Castle Neuschwanstein - which is
not yet in the scenery ;-) to the Lake Constance all by visual
navigation. There are lots of valleys to explore. Just have a look at
the status page. We even have Kempten and Memmingen.
The nearest airport to Fuessen is Reutte (LOIR), a nice little grass
airstrip with a challenging traffic pattern. You can find the approach
plans
(http://tr000127.host.inode.at/flugsportverein-reutte.at/images/anflugblatt.pdf)
from the site of the Reutte aviators club at
http://www.flugsportverein-reutte.at/
Follow the Lech river from Reutte to the north. LOIR lies just at that
river. The Lech turns to the west and the valley opens up. North of that
valley lies Fuessen, with the artificially backed-up lake Forggensee.
Following the border of the Alps to the West, you will after about 40NM
reach Lindau at Lake Constance (cannot miss it). Follow the northern
shore towards the west and you will reach Friedrichshafen after another
10NM.
Perhaps I will publish some more routes through the alps ;-) You will
find that the view is absolutely breathtaking :-)
The homepage of the project can be found at

The scenery is on the Download page.
Have fun!
Best regards,
Ralf
