LSZH - Major changes coming. Will FSDT keep up?
newmanix:
Virtuali,
Next year we will see a whole new LSZH. Major construction has began with the demolotion of Dock B. An all new Dock B will be created and the SkyMetro will be extended to it. There will also be an all new Airport city at the base of the hill where the cows graze near the airport entrance.
LSZH is very valuble to me. It was the very first airport I ever visited out of the US 12 years ago. Since then, I have been back over 30 times. As FSDT LSZH is the best airport scenery ever created (in my opinion) and FSDT's greatest selling product, I am really hoping both FS9 and FSX users can have the chance to enjoy the realworld changes in FS.
All construction is expected to be completed in 2011. If possible, let this topic become a petition, and a place to post any pictures or information anyone finds for us to help FSDT get these updates.
I know most developers dont really care to update their products, but LSZH really deserves it.
Virtuali, will it be possible?

The first picture shows where the new Airport City and Casino is being built. Highlighted in white.
The second picture is a render on the outside of the Airport City. (Dubed "The Circle at Zurich")
The third picture is a render of the inside of Airport City.
The fourth picture is the Dock B demolished. I had a lot of memories spotting and eating there.
The fifth picture is another render of Airport City.
The sixth picture is an exterior render of the all new Dock B

From what I can gather using the Google translator (my German is almost nicht...) on your first link ( www.thecircle.ch ), the construction will *begin* in 2012 so, there's plenty of time. On the LSZH airport web site, they expect to finish demolition of Pier B by end of 2011.

No, Pier B will be complete by the end of 2011 for use of dedicated flights arriving for the Schengen confrence. Pier B is fully stripped and construction started. I will keep searching for updated photos.
