    FS4 language versions differ in included scenery content:
    ->European languages add a mini scenery pack of Europe (SD-EUR) with Frankfurt/Germany, Paris/France and London/UK.
    Copy all files from 2nd floppy (Scenery Disk), then load Scenery from the NAV menu.

    The same for Aircraft & Scenery Designer (German version is just called Designer):
    -> European languages contain San Francisco/California.
    Copy SANFRAN.* from install disk.
    -> US contains Boeing Field Seattle/Washington.
    Copy BOEING.* and SEATTLE.* from install disk.

    Notes:
    .MOD files contain Flight Modes ("missions" you can choose from, like starting from a specific airport)
    .SCN files contain Scenery (like city and airport buildings)
    .DYN files contain Dynamic Scenery (like ground traffic)
