PC Aviator Releases
MegaScenery USA 2004 Volume 2:
New York

Flight Simmers Can
Now Soar The Skies Above the Big Apple, and
Surrounding Areas, With Microsoft Flight Simulator 2004

SOUTH CAROLINA,
14 January 2004. Publisher of MegaScenery, PC
Aviator Inc, today announced that it has released its
MegaScenery USA 2004 Volume 2: New York, a high-resolution
photorealistic scenery for Microsoft’s Flight Simulator 2004, featuring New York
city and 22,000 square miles of surrounding area.

MegaScenery USA Volume
2: New York is the second title in the MegaScenery
series and features some of the USA’s (and the world’s) busiest airspace, and
the world’s biggest metropolis New York City and surrounding areas including
areas of New York State, New Jersey and Connecticut.

Created from 5
meter per pixel satellite imagery, MegaScenery New
York captures the true essence of this area of North Eastern United States.
Flight simulator pilots can now cruise the skies above New
York city (The Big Apple), plus an extensive 22,000
square miles surrounding the city including parts of New York State, New Jersey
and Connecticut. With the scenery created from actual satellite images – if it’s
there in real life, flight simulator pilots will see it from their flight
simulator skies.

This release of
MegaScenery comes with significant enhancements and
development advances and now features actual “winter” scenery with the area
covered with a blanket of snow. The effect and realism is quite stunning. Other
improvements include further enhancements to night lighting which improves even
further upon the already stunning night flying effects experienced with
MegaScenery. So just what does the world’s biggest
metropolis look like from a pilot’s eye view when lit up at night? Flight
simmers will be able to find that out.

President of PC
Aviator, Robert Ferraro, stated “This is by far the most advanced scenery
product ever developed for Microsoft Flight Simulator. We believe we pretty much
stunned the flight simulator world with our MegaScenery
Southern California, and since Aerosoft Australia
[the developers] have made significant improvements to the technology behind the
scenery, plus now including 3 scenery types in the one product – regular
satellite scenery, night scenery and now “winter snow” scenery – and also
increasing the flying area by 150%, we expect New York to be more impacting and
enjoyed by flight simmers even more than MegaScenery
Southern California.”

Flight
sim consumers will be pleased to know that the
product line continues to be available in a “Lite”
and “Full Kit” version. The Full Kit version gives users a full printed
Aeronautical Map kit for navigating their scenery which includes 1 full color
full size sectional chart for New York, 1 full color full
size New York Terminal Area Charts and 348 pages of Instrument Approach Charts.
On top of that users get a 64 page manual with 48 pages of VFR flying lessons
and tutorials authored by a Certified Flight Instructor. The
Lite version is created designed for individuals who
do not require the aeronautical charts. The “Full Kit” version is for
individuals who want everything required to enjoy the scenery to its fullest
extent.

MegaScenery USA 2004:
New York is now available. The Lite version is
priced at $29.95 and the Full Kit is $39.95. The product will have very limited
retail store availability and is more readily available through a limited dealer
