CastlesA collection of high-resolution relief images from the ordnance survey database, including over 26,000 km2 of aerial photographs (2.50m resolution), will provide you with a realistic bird's eye view of the terrain in the French departments of Loire-Atlantique, Maine-et-Loire, Indre et Loire and Loir et Cher. From the Loire estuary to the Chateau de Chambord, you can also fly over Europe's last wild river, and admire the major historic sites and architectural gems of this region through the many finely modelled 3D objects featuring in this first volume.

Finely detailed airports: Tour Val de Loire civil and military airport, Angers-Marce airport, Amboise Dierre aerodrome and the historic Angers-Avrille aerodrome, where the first flying club in France was founded in 1906, and which no longer exists.

All aerodromes are accurately positioned on the texture, with compliant taxiways.

Autogen vegetation areas are placed around the edges of the aerodromes and historical sites.

Industrial sites, architectural gems and specific reference points: Bridge of Saint-Nazaire, Port facilities of Saint-Nazaire, Chevire bridge, Avoine nuclear power plant, Saint-Laurent des-eaux nuclear power plant, television relay station, wind farms.
