So bring on the source imagery!!

I'll bite. I've got'em. No aerials though. :-(
Okay then. Your best bet for getting an airport done is to have hundreds of photos of the airport that you want done and then send them to the developer. The easier you make it for a developer, the better your chances are of your airport getting done. As for you FSX guys, you're kind of out of luck.

So I can just send them megabytes of photos? That'll be a surprise for them :shock: :)

Depends on who you send them to. Send FlyTampa an email, let them know what you have and I'm sure they're let you know if they are interested. If not try the same thing with Imaginesim.

Good day simmers. My first post here, but by far not my first time here :)
I'm am a proud owner of many FlyTampa airports; US Airports and Vienna(Aerosoft releases) and Dubai And St. Marteen + the fabulous Boston by George.

I'll have to agree with the original poster (thread starter) that major Asian hubs are needed, and if FlyTampa were to waste time on small local airports, it would be a MAJOR waste of talent and resources (let Imagine$im do the smaller US airports :wink: )

Bangkok's Suvarnabhumi major airport VTBS, is an airport that automatically springs to my mind, for the FlyTampa talented team. The look of it resembles Dubai airport in so many ways that I have been dreaming of a FlyTampa version of it. Just look up pictures of both and see for yourself.

Kuala Lumpur Intl. WMKK, is one of the newest major Asian hubs and it sure is pretty :D Only FlyTampa could do it justice

Hong Kong Intl. VHHH, is another example that is SORELY absent from Add-On offerings. Cl..d9 have been wanking around for close to 3 years, pretending to offer it, without as much as one screenshot to show for it!!?? And I bought the Flight$oft's version of VHHH, some 2 years ago and I have not seen any add-on developer, before or after, make a WORSE rendition from the default offering!! (it is a research study all in itself why Flight$oft decided to offer it, let alone charge for it).

Sydney Kingsford Smith YSSY!! how come no one has done that one?? (besides one freeware offering).

Sam$oft has devloped Shanghai, Singapore and Taipei, although some years ago and far from todays and FlyTampa standards.


Japan has numerous offerings, Overl@nd springs first to mind with a complete coverage of Japan. Europe is swamped with quality offerings followed by USA (Canada is lacking though).

The decision to develop Dubai OMDB, is a masterpiece and the development itself is a masterpiece!! So a reach to the east, from there would be the most logical choice, as real life airlines are doing and would surely be jumped at by all the VA's of the world.


This is how I see FlyTampa's time and talent put to the best use.
For Crying Out Loud, even the original TampaIntl. is on par with some of the best efforts out there today. And no one can TOUCH St. Marteen.

Everyone here is looking at MAJOR hub airports...


I would like to suggest somthing completely different...

Rather than making a package with only one single major airport, I would like to see FlyTampa make a scenery package that includes a few smaller airports.

i.e. a package that has Teterboro (KTEB), Farmingdale (KFRG) and another CLass Delta Airspace in there general vicinity.

I think that there is enough emphasis on large Class BRAVO airspaces.

Wow, that's completely different than any suggestion that I've heard before. :P

For instance, KBOS has several airports in close proximity. The Boston metro area is also very poorly modeled in FS. KBED Hanscom Field is the second busiest airport in New England in terms of aircraft movements (general aviation and bizjet mostly) and is also partially used by the USAF. There are also smaller general aviation airports in Norwood, Lawrence, and Beverly.....
I love sarcasm!!! :twisted:

Anyone ever consider ATL. FlyTampa would make a killing if they sold scenery for ATL.

Am I the only one here that gets the feeling that Martin is cooking up something sinister (in a good way) in the lab since TNCM came out? While we are all here requesting our JFKs, ATLs, etc. and the request killers have been doing just that; killing requests/ requesters, the captain of this ship has been relatively quiet (which to me means he's working) and only popping up to solve the issues of customers with serious scenery problems.

So I wonder what the hell you've got brewing for us all there Martin. I don't expect an answer but I really can't wait for those first set of preview shots. I know they will be awesome.

Glad someone else feels there is a world outside of flight simming.

Right now, I'm learning flight at the University of Illinois-Urbana/Champaign, and as much as I would like to see KCMI (my new home airport) done by FT, I just remind myself that I see it about 4 times a week when I actualy go flying.

And being the college student I am, I'm gonna go have a beer now. Keep up the good work FT crew.

A fellow Illinois aviator, I'm a Saluki myself.

If your looking for MCI, IS just released it, and it is very impressive and not too shabby on the frames...
