Loafman99 Posted May 8, 2015 Share Posted May 8, 2015 Hey Loaf, I just drove by that place last weekend (worked at the NASCAR race and was advised that would be a better way to avoid the consruction on I-35 in Fort Worth). Anyway, I am looking doing some airports here in Texas and that T67 Hicks Field was one that I tentatively 'circled'.... only thing is there are about 100-150 little hangars there, which will mean (a) a lot of work and ( potentially an FPS hit for some people. Copeland 4T2 would be a perfect selection. Meacham is about as big as anybody would even consider doing, and that is probably even a bit too large -- at least for me. Forget KDAL. Different product by different developers completely. If you decide to do T67, let me know and I'll provide plenty of photos and easter eggs. kerrylafleur@gmail.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

purduekev Posted May 9, 2015 Share Posted May 9, 2015 I just spent a few days in Tubac, AZ, south of Tucson... what a beautiful part of the state! I would love to see a few airports in southern AZ (i.e. Tucson and points south and east), as Phoenix is the farthest south for any of the current airport offerings. I don't know which of the airports down there are most interesting, but once OpenLC NA comes out I would love to explore this part of the country...

Jotayhen Posted May 10, 2015 Share Posted May 10, 2015 How about KCDN? Woodward Field located in Camden, SC is a very active small town field right in the heart of South Carolina's steeplechase racing industry and "horse country". It served as a training facility during WWII and so it has a long and colorful history. Thanks for affording us all the opportunity to submit our suggestions!

addman Posted May 10, 2015 Share Posted May 10, 2015 EFVA Vaasa, Finland. Beautiful coastal area in western Finland with the popular Kvarken archipelago which is visited by tourists from all over Europe every summer. It is on UNESCO's World Heritage Sites list because of the land-rising phenomenon, a consequence of the last ice age. Extending out to the archipelago from the mainland, the Replot bridge which is Finlands longest bridge, it is currently not very well represented in FTX Global but at least it's there. The airport itself is of the smaller, regional variety. There are regional flights to Helsinki and Stockholm but also quite a lot of seasonal charters to southern Europe and even Thailand. The Swedish city of Umeå is just a short hop over the "creek", so to speak. There are also GA operations at the airfield, a sky diving club amongst others. One asphalt runway (which is scheduled for maintenance this summer) with ILS. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mareak Posted June 8, 2015 Share Posted June 8, 2015 Hi Todd/Orbx Team, New guy here. Love your product very much. I have a request for you guys. I have been browsing your product but I am not able to find anything on South East Asia region. Can you guys consider to make one of Malaysia international airport in Langkawi? This island is a tourist attraction and have lots of nice place to visit. Also the island host to LIMA "Langkawi International Maritim and Aerospace" similar to Farnborough. Hope you guys can consider to make the airport and the island as well like Pago Pago 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
arnobg Posted June 14, 2015 Share Posted June 14, 2015 I would like to request Concord Regional, NC KJQF. It is home to NASCAR race teams and is a very busy small airport all week. Would be an easy freeware scenery for the ORBX team. Also KDKX Knoxville Downtown Island would be super cool, it's on a small island on a river near the great smoky mountains, very scenic. As a last suggestion, KCRG Jacksonville Craig to give Florida a little attention. Very busy small GA airport. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hope you guys can consider to make the airport and the island as well like Pago Pago Hi Mareak, Welcome to the forums. Its always good to see new people here at FTX from all over the world. Can I make a suggestion, I think Todd and the guys are mainly concentrating on airport upgrade packs primarily in North America and Europe, at the moment at least. Having said that the Popular holiday island of Langkawi in the Andaman Sea and its airport would make a perfect suggestion for the 'Experience' packages that Tim and Ken are doing, just like the Pago Pago and Papua projects. They have very kindly invited suggestions and welcomed discussions on Exotic Experience ideas so can I strongly advise you to post this same post again on their thread here in the General Discussions area of the forums (a couple of pages down)...I believe it is titled along the lines of: "Future Experience packages: name your dream locations" so that they and others here can consider your ideas. Good luck and a very warm welcome to the forums again. Its a great suggestion if all the luxury hotels and resorts could be modelled too and in a useful location between Phuket and Singapore which would add extra value to its exotic ambience with distinct flavour from the other 2 experiences again. While your there, its a great post and interesting to read and participate in if you like these type of sceneries. Enjoy! Kind Regards, Sid Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jabble Posted June 14, 2015 Share Posted June 14, 2015 Well, I, for one, would welcome airports in Asia and the rest of the world too. I suspect the main effort, though, will be for current or upcoming OLC areas, which means EU and NA at this moment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ripcord Posted June 14, 2015 Share Posted June 14, 2015 Sid you are easily the most polite and likeable guy ever on any flight sim forum I have been on. I really do have to find a way to get to Wales and buy you that pint. His idea is a good one about Langkawi, I suggested that in Tim & Ken's thread soliciting ideas for the next adventure area. Langkawi is one of so very many places screaming out for the ORBX treatment. New guy here. Love your product very much. I have a request for you guys. I have been browsing your product but I am not able to find anything on South East Asia region. Can you guys consider to make one of Malaysia international airport in Langkawi? Mareak, do you live nearby? Can you get photos? I'm the worst object modeller ever but I have at least learned to do basic boxes. Might be a fun self education project to learn on, if Tim & Ken are otherwise engaged. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As a last suggestion, KCRG Jacksonville Craig to give Florida a little attention. Very busy small GA airport. These are good suggestions. KDKX is on my list but it is on hold for the time being, until some global/vector issues get sorted out in that area. I was looking at KCRG the other day, looks like it is an executive airport. Those are cool. I've not tackled one yet myself but I plan to at some point. Had not considered KJQF, but I will have a look. I can say that there is an airport from NC in the upcoming pack.

Ripcord Posted June 14, 2015 Share Posted June 14, 2015 EFVA Vaasa, Finland. Beautiful coastal area in western Finland with the popular Kvarken archipelago which is visited by tourists from all over Europe every summer. Another great suggestion. I have even started doing a couple in Finland -- maybe I will be allowed to join Sylvain and contribute to the FTX Global EU airport packs, but I am still learning so we will see. I would also like do a few in Spain as well as start doing some in Eastern Europe, which so far as zero representation. The main criteria for me involve availability of the objects in the ORBX libraries. If there is a very specific terminal or odd building that is central to the overall theme/flavor of the airport then it is probably not a good candidate. EFVA is one of that might work, using a combination of the plan old FSX boxes and some ORBX buildings, basically cobbling them together. Might look OK, might look pretty stupid.
