Some payware and some freeware stuff here for New Zealand as well as other locations on 'the other side of the world':

All of this scenery is an improvement on the standard stuff, but it is by no means perfect. On their most current NZ scenery, Christchurch looked pretty accurate, as did lake Te Anau, but Auckland looked a bit sparse, it received a score of 75 (that's out of 100 BTW) in a review which appeared in PC Pilot's most recent edition. They do some NZ mountain scenery too, which is obviously a must if you are a glider pilot, since that is the absolute Mecca for glider pilots throughout the world, and for fans of those Lord of the Rings movies for that matter.
