Title: What will the KJFK update look like?
Post by: ElAl4ever on December 06, 2011, 12:53:24 am: Hey guys,

As a citizen of NYC, I was wondering what we can expect to see in terms of an FSDT update. With ZRH and ORD, each airport was done depending on what was needed (I.e. new runway vs. textures redone). Will JFK just be updated with a new layout or can we expect to see something along the lines of a completely redone ground and new textures? Thanks!

We don't have a firm release date now, it should probably somewhere in 2012, likely after CYVR will be released.

Umberto that's very good news I do not mind at all paying for it you guys deserve it but I have to say I'm very glade you guys are supporting your older products not many people do that and jfk is one of my favorite scenery's not to mentioned it is around one of the best city's in the world.

Surely, you jest. You can make it free, we won't tell anyone. ;D :D

This is great news for me. I was hoping for just that: a completely redone airport with all of the bells and whistles like KDFW and KLAX. I would also be happy to pay for it, especially if the final product looks like those airports. Hopefully we'll see it out before the fall of 2012 but whatever works. I am very excited!

Post by: Paradox on December 31, 2011, 05:39:46 am: This is good news. I would like to see some new stuff added to JFK (preferably Terminal 4)

For Example: In the current scenery, at FSX gate D25 in T4, there's only one gate. Real life, there are two jetways at D25. Same goes for D2 since Virgin America relocated to the A concourse of Terminal 4. Also, night time at JFK, the control tower has light shining on it now.

I work in JFK so I know what's missing in the current scenery ;)
