Blueprint just did Detroit recently, and Imaginesim did it long before them. You want more? ::)

I don't consider old FS9 scenery (IS) and Blueprint to be competition. The IS version was never released for FSX, FS9 version was a major dud from the get go and the scenery is outdated anyway. Blueprint is not for people that want full featured scenery. They produce basic renditions of airports and they do it really fast. I am sure the SSJ version will eclipse the BP version once it is released. My point was no one ever suggests DTW - even before the BP version was released or before SSJ announced their project and I don't get why.
That being said, I have a list of what I would like to see. It was in the first sentence of the post - you know, the part of my post you didn't quote.

I saw your list, and Blueprint did four of those airports. Again, you want more? ;D
Don't get me wrong, I am not a fan of any developer who charges for freeware quality sceneries, just pointing out that these airports are available to the community. I'd rather see FSDT make something that isn't.

Would be great if KEWR is "next up"...!!! ;)

Not really, KLAX *might* be our last FS9 scenery, however this is not even 100% sure right now. There are no plans to stop FSX development after MS Flight is released, the only thing sure is that we'll not do anything new for FS9, after MS Flight is released, because we simply don't have the resources needed to work and support 3 different platforms.
But we still have many years ahead of new FSX products, well after MS Flight is released.

Thanks Umberto for clearing that up for me. Very happy with your strategy. I'm a loyal FSDT customer and you can count me in with whatever airports you create for FSX! ;D

I guess my answer is yes to that question. ;D
Whether Blueprint does an airport is irrelevant to me. If I really have to have the airport (DTW for ex), I'll buy something from them but for the most part, I don't consider any of the airports they have released as "done". Its like saying we don't need a 787 because Abacus did one.
