Couple comments
« on: January 05, 2013, 09:03:38 am »
 Well so far I love it. This scenery looks amazing, so nice.  Thank you to all involved!

 A few things I've noticed though:
 - the grass tufts around the airport are way too long (out of scale it almost looks like).
 - Runway 26A no longer exists, it's simply taxiway A (an easy fix in the AP file so everyone can see that).
 - would be nice to have the lighting poles in the deice area and also some buildings/vehicles in the de-ice
    parking area west of Gates 58 and 64.
 - the main fuel farm just north of the Fire hall is an empty lot.
 
 I normally don't take pics of the light posts and de-ice lot these were the best I had

 I love seeing the old Area Control Center and FSS buildings as I worked in the ACC for 10years but it's been gone for almost
2 years now.

I was going to bring up the acc at the south terminal. Looks better with it modeled I must say. Nice to see the Langara building there. Its fun to follow the road to the south terminal from Aviation world right down to the Cosst gaurd station along the river. As I passed the Flying Beaver bar/grill, I had a craving for their wings and "big ass beers".

Off to go see the Avis car lot on the north side to see if the "no spotting/bird watching" sign is there. Great job guys! Money well spent.

I give an "A" on this package.  First off, like all FSDT airports it comes with a try before you buy option. Once installed I found a great scenery package that runs very nice on my system.  The only comment I have is starting positions.  There are no helo pad starting positions and all the parking and gates spots are military cargo for the most part. Its hard to determine what terminal and gate you are able to start out with the current gate and parking labels.

and I've been a huge fan of your pictures on Flickr, almost checking Flickr everyday with the hope of seeing your new pictures! your vantage point from the tower provides for a very unique composition.

 Hey thanks, that means alot! It's been pretty grey lately, makes it very tough to get any good light. That's why there's been a lack up new pics.
