well hey I dont see flytampa creating an airport anytime soon. I say that because I checked the forums a while ago and well nothing, now I could be wrong they could be thinking of something right now well see.
I see what your saying. What I am also saying is that there might not be another good Sydney airport coming out anytime soon. So in my opinion this is a good airport. Is it one of the best against other airport developers no but I am not sure well be seeing Sydney from anyone anytime soon. I could be wrong though.
I'm an Auzzie so It's a must have for me, downloading now...(fsx of course) 😛
Like someone said I think in this forum or another forum. Flytampa came up with St.maarten last year in april. So who knows what will happen.
I used to live in Sydney, about 10 minutes away, and it looks pretty good to me 😉
I love being the live bait when it comes to trying out new stuff!
I was going to do some before and afters, but I forgot the 'befores' in my frenzy of atticipation...so here's the 'afters'.
The Arrow 2 also came as a bundle with it (the aeroplane on screen)
Looks pretty good - a couple of questions... I thought AI a/c weren't included in the scenery, is it your own AI?
There is a lot of sandy color around the runways, is it supposed to be like that?
...and is the city in the distance part of the scenery?

i like the default in fs2004 better
The default in FS2004 is pure rubbish, trust me. The AFCAD, no GA traffic, trust me it sucks. I once lived there so don't question me

1.Yeah default AI
2.They spray the grass with weedkiller to cut the cost of having a greenkeeper 😂 (actually the colour changes with the season)
3.Thats Sydney CBD,its default but they've changed some of it around, but i'm not sure which parts
Heres some of the changes:
· Realistic Terminal Textures
· Accurate Gates
· Custom Seasonal Grass Textures
· DDS Textures for optimal Performance
· Flashing Runway Warning Lights
· Accurate AFCAD, AI traffic goes to their real life position.
· Heliport Area
· GA area
· Carparks
· Surrounding buildings like Krispy Kreams and Hertz.
· Realistic ILS poles
· Accurate Night Lighting on both terminal buildings and runways
· Wider Sydney area scenery objects
· Moving Ramp Vehicles
· Shipping Area
· Blast Fences
· The Old control tower
· Accurate roads and bridges
· Ramp Vehicles Follow accurate paths
· Ramp Clutter
· Jet base Buildings
· Birds near Airport
· Singapore’s A380 Gate
· Dirt and Oil marks at the gates
· Gate Numbers
· **Bonus Texture Pack**
They better stick to making A/C and forget the scenery..
Thanks warlord, that's what I call a thorough... well, I'm lost for the appropriate term.
I must say I like the A-380 gate for SIA, it's a start, though I'd like to see more of those 380 gates say in Darwin, to break the distance, but that will probably never happen and thus be too unrealistic even for me. What is the direct flight duration Sing to Syd about 7 hours? After that, where do you go with a 380 from Syd... back to Sing? We shall see what happens.
BTW, you cannot sell the 'weedkiller' to me. 😁
