Geneva - LSGG, work in progress, East Wing.
« on: August 21, 2018, 11:58:25 pm »
Hi guys,

Just posting this quick topic regarding the new "East Wing" terminal in Geneva. The foundation work has started, and the bones are starting to take shape.

A few more image of the real thing. (@Phofmannsair has some other images too on his feed.)

The website of the airport hosts images of the model exposed inside the airport building itself.

And here is a merge I made between the top-down view from above with satellite image from the federal office of topography.

Here you can see the latest satellite imagery for the whole of Switzerland, directly from the federal office of topography, in outstanding quality.

The East Wing project should be completed by Autumn 2020.
Of course it's up to you if you are going to work on this or not. I know you are working on an update of Geneva, but I have no idea how far into the future you are willing to take.
I don't know if you are going to put a price on the update either, but I sure would be willing to pay for it. You guys make quality work and are already very generous with the free updates on GSX, past airport updates and the like.

Edit: Forgot the "New Jetway" in my merged image.
