Isn't he just?
I don't even think David has been to England before, let alone lived there all his life and flown over it a number of times. He is completely incredulous, but then that leads to delussionment, so it's clear to see why.
I won't even bother posting any shots of england to demonstrate that WoP more accurately reflects the layout of the terrain here in Blighty, because guess what? I've already done it, Rocket Dog has already done it, as have many others.
CloD has a number of things which are better than WoP, but the layout of the country-side, then way the trees are orientated, and the way the LoD models of bulding's is transitioned is much better.
Don't get me wrong, colour-wise WoP really does fail to replicate England, but that is not really the point, so the green-puke-filter rubbish is rather irrelevent.

CloD has the ability to look perfect, but the areas in which it fails on are extremely important: 3-D hedgerows (mising from every flight-sim I can think of); darker trees; neat land-arrangement of fields and housing estates; and, something which hasn't really been touched on, and accurate portrayal of trees from the air (the trunks should be completely invisible, with just a mass of foliage being seen.)
