YSSY may be in the polls by FlightBeam for the airport to be created after KPHX... if we gather enough people, im sure we can get Mir to create it!

Didn't know Mir was even considering it.That'd be great! Sydney is such an important airport in Australia, it'd be amity if it'd be left out in the cold.

Really? I didn't think it was good, to be honest, but that's my opinion based on the shots at simmarket. What's your opinion?

I didn't think it was good
To say the least!MFS YSSY is something I've been awaiting for so many years...

Sydney surely deserves some current FSX treatment. I'm running a freeware file there, but some nice tech from one of the big names in the large airport business would be highly appreciated.Too bad Orbx didn't decide to run it. Their later V2 Melbourne is running fine and looks very nice.

Yes please! :D

I wish anyone who attempts YSSY good luck and deep pockets. We actually have digital pristine 7cm ground imagery and the airport management want us to make it so they have given us access-all-areas to the airport for photos. However, it is one of the most complex and ambitious heavy airports any company could tackle, and I am afraid there would be very little profit in it for Orbx, or most likely, we'll make a loss. The amount of modelling and geometry involved is immense, probably eighteen months or more of work. It's also in a really poorly performing area in FSX so downtown Sydney and Darling Harbour would need an overhaul to replace default models as well. We will not dilute our standards and make a "lite" version, so it's on the back burner for now.

Cheers,

Thanks for the explanation, since I never flew around Syndey because of the lack of an addon airport, I never experienced the FPS hit at that part of the world. Is it as bad as KSEA, or is it better?

I really dont thing YSSY is all that bad, would love the road to run under the runways , and maybe the sea wall fixed, but otherwise no complaints
