Review

"Ground Environment X (GEX) to my eye offers up the best textures I have ever seen for flight simulator. GEX is not elevation mesh, it is not landclass, and it is not photo-real scenery. GEX replaces the default textures, which are called by the landclass underneath and makes up the third layer of the FSX scenery mix." - FlightSim.
