As Oahu nears release, I have been doing test flights like those of NORCAL. It has been suggested that I post these shots, so I'm going to do so here.

As I feel it's important to really get an understanding for the beauty of this scenery, I have elected to post full, non-cropped photos straight from X-Plane. As such, you'll need to click the links below to view the images!

The scenery looks gorgeous.  Has the mesh been redone?  The default X-Plane Hawaii mesh is absolutely awful, it completely misrepresents land formations such as diamonhead and kokohead?  I re-did Hawaii with publicly available elevation and contour data and it comes out much better

Yes. Please see this post for an example of the amazing difference between the default terrain and the new enhanced terrain in the Oahu scenery: http://forums.x-pilot.com/index.php?topic=833.msg7282#msg7282

In looks good.  Are you using the 5m proprietary NEXTMap data or the 10m public access data?

The data is 10m.

Thanks for the info.  Sorry, I wasn't trying to be obnoxious, a genuine interest.  I play around a lot with GIS software/data, just for fun.  I'm glad you're putting it all together for X-Plane!
