KIAH ?
« on: March 31, 2012, 10:33:11 am »
Now that GSX is up and running, I cannot seem to find out what airport scenery is next in line. I am so hopeful that FSDT would do KIAH (George W Bush International) airport. Please consider this airport. I hope the chances of getting this airport done is much better than the recent Mega Million Lottery odds.

Thanks in advance. . . .

I think the chances of FSDT doing KLAX five more times in a row are better than winning the Mega Millions  :D

And if you check the two polls they ran, Houston finished well back in the pack.

Bruce, you are correct, however, if you take a look at the poll today, and remove all the sceneries that have been made, and are in process of being made, Houston is 4th on the list (3rd if you dont count KMIA since it still needs to be remade). Plus, since the poll was done, the United / Continental Merger has been completed, and KIAH is the largest HUB in the United system (and will remain the largest per there CEO).

KMIA - Miami Intl.                   135 (15.4%)    135  DONE - Needs to be remade.
KEWR - Newark Liberty Intl.    117 (18.2%)   117
CYYZ - Toronto Pearson Intl.    107 (12.2%)    107
KIAH - Houston George Bush      95 (10.9%)   95
KSAN - San Diego Intl.            91 (14.2%)   91
KBWI - Baltimore Intl.             62 (9.7%)    62
KDEN - Denver Intl.                  61 (7%)      61
KPHL - Philadelphia Intl.            57 (6.5%)   57
KSEA - Seattle-Tacoma Intl.      52 (5.9%)   52 - Possibly being redone by FlyTampa.
EDDF - Frankfurt Main              33 (3.8%)   33
LIMC - Milan Malpensa              29 (4.5%)   29

I for one will always vote for KIAH. It is one of the most overlooked airports in the FS world. The last real make for KIAH was Simflyers ( I wonder what ever happened to that team.) version that was ported from FS2002 to FS9.
I have also heard of another developer making Newark, but I cant remember who it was.

Yep, I wouldn't mind having KIAH either, in fact I would rather have that than Newark. I currently have the BP version of IAH and it's better than default but of course no where near as nice as an FSDT version. Even though I own the IS KATL I would be happy with an FSDT redo of it as well, and of course a FSDT version of KMIA would be an instant purchase even though I own the LatinVFR version and it looks nice but the FPS aren't as good as I would like.

I even think we might see completed before Sunskyjet finishes KDTW!  :D
