For several months we'll be busy doing CYVR first, and then update JFK, which means we don't really need a poll before the next summer.

Will you guys support FS9 for one last year than?  I know there is alot of people voting for my hometown aiport Minneapolis St. Paul International.  AES is now moving into its "next generation stage."  Once Microsoft Flight comes out i will switch to that.  Im not going for FSX.  It would be great if you guys could make MSP for Flight instead since im planning to move to that sim.

What a shame, an Italian Scenery House thinking of making all possible sceneries, even in Papuasia maybe, and not making a scenery of Rome Fiumicino, their homeland, completely missing in FSX and that would be purchased by a large number of users...

We haven't done any scenery in Papuasia, all our latest sceneries are in the US (Hawaii it's part of the US, and we made the smaller island airports to allow shorter flight from PHNL), and that's a market about 10x larger than Italy.

I was hoping it would be Rome since it got the most votes. 

Can anyone recommend a good Rome Fiumicino Airport payware or freeware for fsx?

It seems Aerosoft will do a Rome airport.

Yes that's correct  :)

I see that after a few searches. Unfortunately, the beta testing is closed.  It is being developed by a Swedish company called Dreamfactory Studio for Aerosoft.

I was originally going to try the conversion of the ISD 2005 Rome since I have the file that updates it to FSX but the file is no longer on Avsim or anywhere else for that matter.
I'm guessing this is another major reason why FSDT decided to go with Vancouver as the new scenery.

What thoughts does anyone have on the Cloud 9 XCity Rome scenery.  Does this work well in FSX?

Far from it, the only one possible candidate against Vancouver was KMIA, but we dropped it because it was too close to KFLL. And Rome wasn't even a 3rd choice, things like KEWR, KSEA or CYYZ are way more likely to be done in the future than FCO.

Do you think that KMSP Minneapolis St. Paul Intl is to close to Chicago O'hare KORD?  Its a great airport.

If that were true, someone besides Blueprint would've done it by now.   ;D

KEWR will be cool  ;)

I agree. I would have to make sure that my system is capable of running it but to have the NYC area 2/3 FSDT would be incredible.

No, KMSP is a lot farther away from KORD. KFLL is much closer to KMIA.

KMSP would be an excellent choice.   The BP scenery should be freeware and is just plain awful.   Everything is WHITE.  There is no detail and it adds minimal atmosphere.

I am confident that FSDT could make it look great. 

KMSP Minniapolis is an incredible airport and I have been there a few times.  It is one of the main hubs for Delta and has recently added a new concourse.  They also have the train that will take you from one area to the next.   (the oddest thing I saw.. the police in the airport use segue's to patrol).

You must be the cave man.  I live here in KMSP.  I know how MSP looks like.  They added the humpherey teramainal and the train back in 2004 along with runway 35/17.  Some hangers were demolished awhile ago.  il get back to you because im in school.

Caveman?  Hardly.   I didn't realize that was from 2004.  Still, fairly recent and quite modern compared to most of our airports in the midwest.

Post by: nickac1092 on February 08, 2012, 12:19:35 am
Yeah.  So alot have changed since you last saw it.  I think it would be very nice if FSDT would consider it.  Imagine sim already made Delta's HQs liek Atlanta, Detroit, and Cincinnati...  Why not Minneapolis?  I just want AES and GSX there.  I hate coming back from the round trips i do to realize that MSP is crap compaired to all my other scenery.

nick,  which scenery are you currently using for KMSP?   I have the blueprint but have not found anything else

Post by: nickac1092 on February 08, 2012, 07:57:56 pm
same as you....  I just moded the AFCAD KMSP.bgl file so that i have more parking spaces along with AI at the maintence hangers.  I also have some of the tarmac modded around the runways and airforce reserves.

Post by: D_mitris on February 09, 2012, 07:19:16 pm
I also noticed that the UT2 AI doesn't fill most of the spots with the BP airport.  Any chance you could email me the AFCAD?  send to evercllear@yahoo.com

thanks-
