Hi all,
Been flying with the new update. Don't see any real change to the Western Chugach area of Alaska. I do like the addition of Friday Harbor over by Orcas.
Note: After update load, don't forget to go to Marketplace to buy (free) and download the World Update 2 for USA.
Here is link to the release notes:

Thanks Rod..downloading now.

Didn’t break any of my work at all.

The update did break one minor thing that is easily fixed. It seems to have wiped the following arrow key bindings from keyboard layouts:
TRANSLATE COCKPIT VIEW LEFT left
TRANSLATE COCKPIT VIEW RIGHT right
INCREASE COCKPIT VIEW HEIGHT down
DECREASE COCKPIT VIEW HEIGHT up
I just put them back and all is well. Thanks to Robert for pointing this out.

Have to check.
I use cursor up/down for cockpit forward/backward and PgUp/PgDn for cockpit height.

I just meant that the scenery isn’t broken at all, so now people can work on RTMM.

Yeah, that's great! This means that custum scenery isn't necessarily destroyed with new updates, contrary to most aeroplane mods.

It's just too bad that the new Alaska version looks like the old one.

But 3rd party freeware are out there.. PAVD appears but without the freeware pavd scenery add-on piece by
Haeriphos on the msfsaddons.org site...(flightsim.to being the most popular)

PS: There is lots of freeware airport enhancements out there for MSFS2020 out for Alaska (and BC) on half a dozen freeware MSFS2020 addon sites.
So far: (43 scenery freeware addons/enhancements pieces for Alaska, 1 Alaska Payware, (plus 59 freeware pieces for BC).. Most add something like an airport or if there is an airport, an enhancement!!
And all easy to pop in and out of the community folder to try..
