“Narsarsuaq X scenery package is the most real mesh for Flight Simulator X for South Greenland.
This area covers more than 13,000 Sq. miles.
The mesh data is made from ASTER GDEM data. While ASTER GDEM data is not nearly refined as STRM source data, the data is the best data for Greenland.
The raw ASTER GDEM data is not without its problems, but I have remake large areas to make it useful.
But it’s not only the mesh which have been reworked. The coastline and islands are reworked for this release. Like the lakes and rivers are. Custom made buildings have been included. Photo Scenery for BGBW area in all season variation.
Narsarsuaq (BGBW) is moved to the right position, added custom made buildings.

Thanks for the heads-up, I’ll be getting this one shortly.
I remember watching a series on TV, years ago, which included some episodes about delivering GA aircraft across the Atlantic, most of which included a stop at Narsasuaq. They spent a long time sitting there, describing fog-bound approaches, scud running up a dead end valley, with fuel gauges reaching empty.
Definitely sounds like something to try in the sim, rather than the real world, I think!
