    Thank you! This is really appreciated here. I've been really wanting to see it.
    Hopefully "soon" I'll have enough back in the budget to get PNW and both addon Airports.

    I've downloaded it several times now. I'm getting an error each time when I go to open the file.

    I just finished downloading and it opened OK. I'd suggest flushing out any temporary files from your browser and/or using a download manager.

    I noticed a couple times it was stopping right at 290mb into download, then would pickup after minute.
    This last time here I just paused and resumed it before that point. Went though fine! Wheeee!

    Honestly, if you buy the whole thing you'll be more than happy. However, it's nice for FTX to release the demo. For me, PNW Blue the best scenery add-on I've ever seen!

    Cheers,

    Nice idea to get more folks interested. Installation went fine, but I did get the attached error message several times, once after the initial install and then again after selecting "North America" and "Apply".

    I am on the fence with the addon right now, mostly due to funds. What I did notice while flying though was the impressive amount of Autogen and how little that affected fps. Ground textures were a more realistic deep green and building placement was nicely done and also pretty dense with no fps hit.

    I've seen the really detailed areas of PNW and those impressed me quite a bit. I enjoy the small out of the way airstrips, the ones you really have to work at to land on and most if not all of those are in the full product and not in this demo. I will most likely buy this eventually, maybe by Summer, but if I wasn't necessarily interested in the product to begin with, this demo wouldn't have changed my mind.

    Can anyone tell me whether it can be installed manually or does it just chuck files everywhere like the AU Blue demo!?

    I've never been able to get rid of that properly!

    I like the colors better than what other texture add-ons currently claim to be accurate.
    Really like the default airports and grass strips.
    This is definitely my next investment for FSX.

    I haven't found any way to uninstall. It's not listed in the programs section of the control panel and I don't see an uninstall program in the FSX folder anywhere.
