Of course I am...considering I've stayed up late this night to finish the KIAD installer :) It's a very good airport, and it has several interesting novel solutions:

- It has thousands of trees, so dense that make the Autogen look funny outdated...they also change by season.

- Night lighting on the apron changes depending if it's dusk or night, and when visibility is low the light spreads out differently and more diffused. They used our Couatl script engine to create this effect.

- It's comes fully customized with GSX, all parking spots have custom locations in order to match the scenery objects precisely, and it uses the GSX custom naming group feature, to allow an easier selection of gates with realistic names.

- It comes with proper FSX animated jetways, so it works perfectly with GSX on that too, and it doesn't even require purchasing GSX (for the few people that still don't have it...).

It's awesome... I love it. Flightbeam and FSDT are the best, absolutely the best. Thanks for stopping developing for fs9.

Why RE-download ? The installer always included all the needed GSX files.

Maybe someone will buy the rights to FS9 and keep it alive, like LM did with FSX.

I hope not... FS9 is too old.
