You neglect to mention Flightsceneries KPDX and KPVD, but your point still stands. I do think however with the complete lack of any quality WSSS or YSSY sceneries, those could potentially sell equally as well as the American sites.
JFKpilot:
U.S. airports have plenty of documentation and a high sales potential, in addition to being neglected by most developers. So it's a win-win situation for Fsdt. People will be happy to buy neglected American airports and there should be plenty of profits.
I don't think there's any potential in Australia -- Orbx/FTX dominates there. Ditto Germany -- Aerosoft and the uk -- uk2000. If only Asia had better documentation then we might see more coverage there...

Did they produce a YSSY scenery that I missed that is any good? Are they producing sceneries compatible with FS9? I think YSSY would have a huge market despite what another company is producing for other areas.

I don't think orbx yssy will be out for a long time. Either way it'll be fsx-only. For fs9 there's the freeware VOZ and payware CLS, both are so-so IMO.

It's also an interesting airport, because the short runway combined with the surrounding terrain, makes for a challenging approach.
Well...JFK sold in a couple of *hours* more than Florence in a year, and Zurich and Geneva didn't fared much different.
That basically defines the issues about making italian airports.

I understand this position. I really do. However, when you go to work on your next European senery what airport could you possibly do that everyone would want outside of Italy? Simwings are working on new Mega Airport Spain seneries. Aerosoft has Germany COVERED from head to toe. Austria is covered with both high quality pay and freeware seneries. France is covered by Simwings and VFR France. The UK is covered by UK2000. Poland is being covered with a awesome new payware developer. Holland is being covered by Aerosoft with new AMS and Rotterdam. Croatia is covered quite well indeed. Portugal has it's 2 best ariports covered by Aerosoft. We have Budapest from Aerosoft which is the best airport in Hungary. Brussles and Stockholm well covered. Please don't tell me you are going to out do Dream Factory studio again and redux Stockholm. The one they did is JUST FINE! Greece is covered with a helliva lof of freeware seneries that are great! C9 already did Bergen which is great!
That leaves the MAJOR following airports you really need to consider outside of Italy: Copenhagen, Praha Ruzyne, Helsinki, Goteborg, Dublin, Nice, aww screw it others can add to the list. My Point is Italy is F'in HUGE!!! And we have ONE freakin payware quality senery in the whole damn country!!!!!! This is rediclous, Besides the airports I listed in Europe, I think Italy indeed!! Should be your next choice and it should be a Major airport. Does anyone disagree with me here. Please keep up with US seneries!! Please!!! But when you start work on the next Europe senery, please consider this post. Italy is a wonderful county! I have been many times! My favoriate food is there! Why can't the seneries be great too?????
Cheers!!
