FlightGear World Scenery — v2.6.0 (SVN 19892)

May 12, 2012: – The FlightGear world scenery is updated to SVN v19892.

The base FlightGear download starts you off with a small area of scenery around San Francisco, CA (USA). If you want to fly to or from other airports, you will need to download additional scenery.  FlightGear scenery is available for the entire world.

Download Scenery

Choose one of the previous links to manually download sections of the world. You can download scenery for the entire world in 10×10 degree chunks. The files are named according to the coordinates of their lower, left hand corner. If you move your cursor over a tile on the graphical image, your browser should display the name the corresponding section.

Terrasync

There is a utility available (now built into FlightGear) called “terrasync”. This utility runs in the background in a separate process, monitors your position, and downloads (or updates) the latest greatest scenery from the master scenery server “just in time”.  The wiki has more information on launching and running terrasync.
