Microsoft Flight Simulator New Zealand Update Review

Virtual kiwi pilots can now aerial sight see over many many national landmarks and even visit some of the smaller regional airports in Microsoft’s recent update for Flight Simulator.

While the entire globe had already been meticulously detailed in Flight Simulator, smaller nations, like New Zealand hadn’t quite gotten the love with only primary airports being available.

Having worked with New Zealand (NZ) based developers and topographers, update 1.29.30.0 gives players an additional 7 cities, 62 new points of interest and 9 extra airports.

From the Fjords to Hobbiton in Matamata, visit smaller cities such as Gisborne, circle around Dog Lighthouse, soar over the Beehive (NZ’s Parliamentary building) or simply take a sight seeing tour in a Cessna across the sprawling Auckland city (NZ’s largest metropolis).

All of this has been finely crafted by hand and being a kiwi and familiar with all of these zones and landmarks I looked over with a critical view, but could not ind any thing to be critical about. Flawless digital reproduction.

And if you’re up for a challenge pilot an Airbus and land at NZ’s windiest airport in Wellington city.

In all there has been so much added in for kiwi pilots with accurate mapping, textured detail and additional challenges that make this new update a virtual complete simulation game all of it’s own.

To get your pilot skills within the long white cloudy skies of New Zealand make sure you have downloaded the free update.
