Hi FSdreamteam kmia work already star?

Pittsburg is too close to PHL, which is being done by sun Sky Jet.  St. Louis would be good.

I believe the next airport needs to have the following qualities:

1. International traffic
2. Hub for a major airline
3. Has not been done by another quality developer. If it has, the scenery cannot be available for FSX and FS9
4. Probably located in North America
5. Cannot be in geographic areas that are problematic for FSX like SEA and VAN

This is just what I have gleaned from comments in several threads. I think KMIA, KMCO, KMSP and KIAH are the only ones that truly fit the bill. A nice CYYZ would be good but a decent freeware one exists for FSX that even has AES support. STL and PIT don't get a lot of international traffic traffic (only Air Canada AFAIK). While a FSDT ATL would be nice, some people will stick with their IS scenery and skip a FSDT ATL.

And as I mentioned before, I don't consider Blueprint a quality developer. To me, their airports are good for those that want enhanced default scenery at a low price. I have never been able to get over their refusal to provide AES support and I think that is what puts them in a lower tier than Imaginesim. I also think the overall quality of Imaginesim's airports is slightly higher than Blueprints. I am truly not bashing BP becasue I believe that is where they want to be and the market they want to serve. I believe they have no desire to compete with FSDT, FT or even Imaginesim.

Quick question,what's the CYYZ scenery for FSX you mentioned? Thanks!

Ooops. I was wrong. For some reason, I thought that the one for FS9 (defranco) was available for FSX and supported in AES. It is not. What is more troubling with my assertion is that I thought I had it installed :-[

So, I think CYYZ should be added to that short list of large international North American hubs that need scenery.

The updated is
KMIA
KMCO
KMSP
KIAH
CYYZ

Except for Miami, every hub you listed has scenery.  You just need to get over your Blueprint bias.   ;)
