Indianapolis X represents another, dreamed city to be depicted, that becomes true for flightsimmers. And now, for the users of FSX, this new scenery, brings the area of Indianapolis to life in your simulator, in such a way that you won’t believe your eyes.

There are literally thousands of details to be discovered all around the city.

So, with Dreamscenery Indianapolis X you have the chance to spend hours or even days, visiting over and over this area and always discover something new.
