Work in Progress / 01

Thus I am assuming FSDT will make the final product we will see in 3 years and not what we see today. It is much more efficent to make the final work rathar then updates like UK2000 is doing with Heathrow

Personally, it would be a lot more fun to simulate the work being done through updates, rather than a guess of what it will look like three years from now.  And unlike UK2000, FSDT updates are free.

#1 it's not a guess. The masterplan is complete.

#2 The team would be spending too much time returning to KLAX when they could be working on other projects.

#3 These would not be the usual updates and I doubt FSDT can afford to just give that work away for free..

I take it you've never heard of the infamous "Big Dig" in Boston.

As previously stated, i've been working with LAWA for the better part of 11 years not to mention my uncle is on the planning team. This isn't Boston bro...

Ayuh... they not from around hee yuh...

I can't translate that, lol

[PUP4ORD]

Back with LAX un huh? In any case I'm well aware of the fact of the runways and taxiways being realigned or still in the process. The LAWA master plan for LAX will bring the airport far into the 21st century.

That's how we say "Yeah, they're not from around here" up in Cow Hampshire.  LOL

That's great...bro...but clearly you missed the point.  Just because a master plan is complete doesn't mean things won't change due to a variety of reasons and the Big Dig is a great example of how a large construction project can evolve as it is being built and being developed.

And sweet, didn't realize we had other New Englanders in here.

[newmanix]

That is implied with any project. And my point is, if there were any changes to the plan it would be minor and would give me time to notify the development team. Either way, it's still time and money efficent to complete the project as it is expected to look and make any changes in the end if needed, rathar then making the updates as time passes. The latter would tie up the team to keep working on LAX and prevent other releases. This is a 3 year project and the construction is progressing fast. I should know, I am there every day.

The only other plan would be to make LAX as it is today and update it in 3 years when the project is complete. You want to wait for that? I didn't think so.  

It would however be nice to get clarification from Umberto on what the plan actually is...

We'll do KLAX as it is today. And no, we can't say anything right now about updating it, since we don't even know which sim we'll all use in 2013 and beyond.

Thats the crazy part that we have msflight being developed now, and we don't know anything about yet! that's the one of the bad things about these airports. that they  are changing all the time! its pain the in butt!

Thank you for some sanity, Umberto!

I just shake my head at those who don't understand the process, expecting that there be constant upgrades churned out as a new driveway is put in.

There is a *LOT* that could happen in the next three years, especially with California's budgetary concerns. Wake me up in three years and tell me if this "set in stone" LAX development is finished or on-budget or scaled back or bankrupt.
