Enter Boston`s buzzing airspace with a wide choice of aviation options. New England`s largest city has plenty of helipads within its boundaries, some nice rural general aviation airports surrounding it and last but not least: Boston Logan.
No other US airport of this size it that close to a major city center - thrilling and scenic approaches guaranteed! From there head out to Boston Harbor`s islands or fly along the magnificent coastline dotted with some of the most attractive homes in New England.
US Cities X is a series of city scenery for FSX and P3D that covers US cities created by LimeSim. Based on an extensive aerial image it will have all the major buildings and landmarks plus all the airports and heliports that are inside the covered areas. It is clearly intended to fill the gap between the default scenery and very high dense city scenery such as Manhattan X. Because the file size is rather large due to the ground image it only includes one season (in most cases this is not a real issue) and no night textures. The VFR flights over these cities are mostly a day time affair anyway.
