Jack Sawyer Posted June 6, 2018 Share Posted June 6, 2018 Just saw Mr. JV's announcement after seeing part of it at FSElite. Wow! So without giving too much information away may I ask if we'll see their Terra stuff? And their airports re-branded as Orbx? If I read it right I think it's a yes on the airports which means more cool stuff to buy soon! I love this, you guys are making me very happy!

I have been interested in Turbulent Designs airports before, many times. But, I have always held back because I knew that they would not have PeopleFlow so I would probably not be happy. Well, after JV's announcement, that won't be an issue anymore Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BrettT Posted June 6, 2018 Share Posted June 6, 2018 I am excited about this as well. I have often thought that ORBX has done such a great job establishing a great standard of quality and building a robust download/update system that they should try to do more of this partnering like what has happened with iBlueYonder and now Turbulent Designs. Quite a few other developers already take steps to mesh their products in with ORBX regions as it is already. I have looked at iBlueYonder and Turbulent in the past to purchase independently but I shied away from it purely from the stand point that I didn't want to deal with multiple installers and worry about scenery library order, etc. As soon as iBlueYonder teamed up I purchased their products and will likely do the same with the Turbulent Design products, especially if they coincide with the areas in which I have ORBX regions or LC areas Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I also did like you and immediately purchased the IBlueYonder scenery as soon as they partnered with Orbx and were available in FTX Central...I will surely do the same when that happens with Turbulent....Happy Times Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's the easiest and most intuitive system I have ever seen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Big Bear is one of the main reasons I kept looking at Turbulent...as a kid growing up in SoCal, we used to head up to Big Bear and Lake Arrowhead many times a year for camping, fishing and hiking....beautiful area, and for those reasons, very nostalgic for me. I am sure that will be the first Turbulent airport I grab Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wolfko Posted June 6, 2018 Share Posted June 6, 2018 Thanks for the heads up, Jack. Without your OP I would have missed JV's announcement. It is actually not very prominent on the forum's front page and doesn't show up in the announcement forum at all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I grew up in SC and we had a cabin in Lake Arrowhead and another in Apple Valley and spent many a summer and winter there. In the early 70s we moved to Hawaii and most recently to Houston helping raise grand kids. We love Colorado and thinking of getting a second home there.

Daz Kealy Posted June 6, 2018 Share Posted June 6, 2018 This looks like a very smart move all round. I was looking at their KGPI airport earlier and it looks great. I'd love to buy that here at Orbx. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

shipdriver Posted June 6, 2018 Share Posted June 6, 2018 I have three of their airports (KIDA, KGPI, 2O3) and they are for all intents and purposes ORBX quality, which is only logical since the names on Turbulent's roster (for examples Russell Linn and Russ White) are all over the credits of loads of ORBX airports. The best news for me is that I will be able to post videos incorporating their stuff here on these forums! 2O3 is a great short hop to Sonoma or Cloverdale and KIDA, KGPI not only fill holes in FTX regions with fewer ORBX airports (CRM, NRM) but make great flight pairs to nearby ORBX airports like KWYS, KBZN, and KJAC.

Vora Posted June 7, 2018 Share Posted June 7, 2018 One less place in the net where I have to go looking for updates. Good news indeed. Their airports match the FTX world flawlessly which is no surprise as there are many familiar names at Turbulent... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
caleb1 Posted June 7, 2018 Share Posted June 7, 2018 Turbulent Designs airports re branded as Orbx? Cool! What about TerraFlora? Orbx already has a trees addon so what's the plan on that? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
