Scenery Tech has released their North America Landclass scenery add-on for Flight Simulator X, which you can purchase from the FlightSim Pilot Shop:
SceneryTech’s North America Landclass for FSX perfectly demonstrates how SceneryTech hopes to transform the world of Microsoft Flight Simulator, employing innovative development techniques not used anywhere else.
SceneryTech’s products fix nearly every issue found in the default landclass, from pervasive desertification of the landscape to missing towns and cities. Most importantly, it will ramp up the realism and make the FS world a more interesting place to fly.
SceneryTech Technology
SceneryTech’s landclass employs a number of technical advancements that sets it apart from the default landclass, as well as the competition’s:
High-definition data sources
Users of SceneryTech landclass may notice that it contains more terrain variation than the default landclass. This is due in part to the more specific land classification scheme that is used during the development stage. Although the data must eventually be downsampled to conform with the less-detailed land classification scheme used by the Flight Simulator scenery engine, the fact that it is processed from a higher definition data scheme gives us more control over the final representation.
You can find out more from the FlightSim Pilot Shop.

I think it’s because in FSX it’s almost entirely desert and therefore not very interesting to fly over

I find it hard to beleive our “cousins” allowed you to get away with that one Mark. In all seriousness though MS being MS I imagine that more detail went into the US scenery / airports / aircraft etc than any other country and that does seem to be born out from experience.

LOL - it is true, though
Not just for that area, but for many parts of the world. Even in real life, I can’t imagine it being THAT exciting flying across, say, the Sahara!
