Not only did Mayor Daley bulldoze Meigs Field in the dead of night back in 2003, but ICAO removed it from the active airports list and the ICAO list is a major determiner in what airports get into the game.

FWIW, he is facing a lawsuit over this, as well as FAA actions because he did this without proper prior notification

Meigs Field (KCGX) is present in FS2004, however in FSX, where the airport once used to be is just a deserted strip of land.

😂 you are right. we used a scenery for meigs in fs2004, they had a bulldozed one! 😂
fsx does have a scenery with meigs, were not going to use it.
And we are taking out the stupid twin tower thing we put in. 😂
