The Columbia River in NW USA is the largest river by flow rate flowing into the Pacific ocean from the Americas. Consequently it has large bridges and also the Bonneville dam. Portland, Oregon lies on the south bank of the Columbia River and is on the Williamette River, a tributary of the Columbia River. A photo shows the area covered by this package.
The MSFS scenery is a vast improvement over previous flight sims. However bridges over large waterways, rivers or other bodies of water are very noticeable and are an eyesore destroying realism. Rkbridger packages solve that issue with bridge packages which show the bridges in their true magnificence and also improve the entire landscape, including marinas and river traffic, along the stretch of water modeled. All bridges are modeled in the correct architectural style with appropriate night lighting and with traffic flowing on the bridges.
The Astoria-Megler Bridge and the Lewis and Clark Bridge were done by Asobo.
POIs have been placed at each model and are listed below.
Photogrammetry must be ON to ensure models integrate correctly with the sim.
The package is compatible with both MSFS2020 and MSFS2024
