The maps were built using satellite pictures, so their accuracy is understandable.

That's the benefit of playing a sim flight game rather than an arcade one!

Yeah I live quite near Dover and was hoping to fly over where my house should be (it wouldn't have been there in the 40's).

I`ve been flying under the bridges around Canterbury. Ithought they would be a solid feature, but you can actually fly under them. On a map the size of Kent, that`s astounding.
