Hello,
if you look hard enough you will find the UK mesh and the air obstacle thing.
I downloaded the UK mesh and let me tell you how much better the topography of the united kingdom is. I fly out regularly from Glasgow(EGPF) in FS and before I installed the mesh, the sleeping giant (a big hill which stretches along the north of Glasgow) looked like a molehill but now it looks much more realistic. The air obstacle thing is split into two parts and it displays objects which stretch above 500ft AGL which do not appear in FS and this is pretty cool as it now displays cooling towers and tall chimneys with smoke coming out of them. I automatically recognised the chimney from the whiskey distillery in the north of Glasgow once I had installed this.
Although if you are willing to you can splash out a little on the add-on scenery for all of England and Wales (in different packages, all seperate) although no Scotland or Ireland Evil or Very Mad

but then again, its up to you!
