Los Angeles is a major hub for air travel in the United States. Not only are there several major airports in the area, but there is a large general aviation presence as well. Additionally, there are more helipads in Los Angeles than in any other city. Every day, numerous helicopter and light aircraft flights are made around the city every day in addition to major airline traffic. Sightseeing flights are incredibly popular with tourists, as they are ideal for experiencing stunning aerial views from coastline to the mountains.
US Cities X: Los Angeles for FSX: Steam Edition, developed by Limesim, is jam-packed with realistic and detailed textures and mesh terrain. Based on extensive aerial images, all major buildings, landmarks, airports and heliports within the scenery area are faithfully recreated – for the LA area, there are 150 helipads alone!
