These files improve specific scenerys (Rangiroa Islands, Tahiti, 
French Polynesia) of FS2004. 
Rangiroa located About 200 miles northeast of Tahiti Island. 
Rangiroa, with its 42-mile long by 16-mile wide lagoon, 
is the largest atoll in the Tuamotu Archipelago.

The lagoon is very very beautiful!!!
I tried my best to make the model of this beautiful Islands.
Especially I invented penetration processing of 
the beautiful coastline of Rangiroa.

Including Kia-Ora Village, Avatoru and Tiputa.
You can see the overwater bungalows of Kia Ora Village.


Included islands: Rangiroa, Tikehau, Mataiva and Makatea.
                  Manihi, Ahe

This scenery has a quite long visibility (approximately 100Km) with 
using LVR( Long Visual Range Tool ). You can look around the whole 
Rangiroa atoll. Furthermore you can see Tikehau islands from Rangiroa, 
and Mataiva islands from Tikehau.
