Aerosoft’s Aspen X 1.0 is a virtual reality scenic software add-on for Microsoft Flight Simulator X simulating the Aspen Airport, Pitman County, Colorado, and environs. The exciting challenges brought by further features in the Aspen X 1.0 scenery add-on include bad weather and winter textures. The photo-textured areas are blended seamlessly with the mesh terrain ensuring perfect views without unsightly edges.

Users benefit from life-like simulation air travel over mountainous terrains, with the added experience of the challenges brought by having just one single runway direction, which is located at 8,000 feet. The users manual is available in PDF format for download and it gives the user all the necessary advice would be pilots would need on the operation of aircraft take-offs and landings at high altitudes. The manual includes the full necessary set of plates needed for approaches. The manual is also available in English and German.

There are 9 flight situations to try, 6 of these scenes are set on the Roaring Fork. There are also 2 high-density altitude demonstrations. Designed considering with frame rates in mind, the buildings are sparse at the airport keeping the speed of operating up. The Autogen technique has been used extensively to build the town, and all of this and the surrounding mountainous scenery is exceptionally detailed. The airport has chaotic schedule times and does not open at night, adding to the users experience.
