November 4, 201213 yr Moderator Just saw a video on the Aerosoft forum for the Airbus Extended and in the 2:00 minute mark thru 2:30 there are some shots landing at Dubai. Judging from the looks of the artwork on the buildings in the scenery surrounding the area at the 2:17 mark looking very similar to the texture style FlyTampa used at Kai Tak, I would bet that it's from FlyTampa. It's been rumored they have been "re-booting" that scenery for a while and wouldn't surprise me if its released soon. Here's the video in reference in this thread. http://forum.aerosoft.com/index.php?/topic/58953-fsx-aerosoft-official-airbus-x-extended-video/ Avsim Board of Directors | Avsim Forums Moderator

November 4, 201213 yr Yup, but it seems to be much larger than just a reboot. CIty, and even next door emirate seem to be there too. Waleed N
November 4, 201213 yr Hi ! But I think it's developped by Aerosoft, because they tell that they were developping a middle east airport... Wait and see ! Best regards, Thomas

Those buildings look a lot like the same texturing that is seen in Kai Tak screen shots. Not saying they re-used the buildings, but the artwork looks similar. I wonder when it will be released?

November 5, 201213 yr Take a look at Aerosoft forum and see what Oliver Pabst said: http://forum.aerosoft.com/index.php?/topic/58953-fsx-aerosoft-official-airbus-x-extended-video/ He gives us some clues. I too find that Fly Tampa is behind this and Aerosoft will be a distributor just like they do with Kai Tak and Vienna. The best of all is knowing that we'll finally have Dubai for FSX. Even better if it looks like Kai Tak. Let's wait and see.
November 5, 201213 yr I hope they also include Sharja airport The skyline and the coastline appear to be there: But the airport would be a bit of a stretch... Regards, Martin Martinov / VATSIM 1207931
November 5, 201213 yr I don't think there can be any doubt that's not FT's work there. It looks great. The plane looks good too ! Regards, Max (YSSY) i7-12700K | Corsair Vengeance LPX 64GB 3600MHz DDR4 | Gigabyte RTX4090 24Gb | Gigabyte Z690 AORUS ELITE DDR4 | Corsair HX1200 PSU
November 6, 201213 yr More info here: http://airdailyx.blogspot.co.nz/2012/11/dubai-is-that-you.html It's quite risky to develop a payware DXB/OMDB at the moment because the real world Dubai is changing so quickly and there are lots of uncertainty with regards to the new Al Maktoum airport and what's going to happen to the old one. Back then Flytampa took a guess at one of the then-future terminals and they got it wrong.
November 7, 201213 yr It's official! http://www.flytampa.org/forum/viewtopic.php?f=24&t=5738 LUIS LINARES Processor: Intel Core i9 6700K 9900K (5.0 GHz Turbo) Eight Core; CPU Cooling: NXXT Kraken X62 280mm CPU Liquid Cooler; System Memory: 64GB Corsair DDR4 SDRAM @ 3200 MHz, RGB; Graphics Processor: 11GB Nvidia GeForce RTX 2080 Ti, GDDR6, Primary Drive: 2TB Samsung 850 Pro Solid State Drive (SSD)
November 7, 201213 yr Commercial Member Great, this will be a must have, apparently will be out in just a few days.
November 7, 201213 yr More info here: http://airdailyx.blo...s-that-you.html It's quite risky to develop a payware DXB/OMDB at the moment because the real world Dubai is changing so quickly and there are lots of uncertainty with regards to the new Al Maktoum airport and what's going to happen to the old one. Back then Flytampa took a guess at one of the then-future terminals and they got it wrong. I believe it is not risky at all under the current situation. The current airport is witnessing changes on a "limited" scale for now. Terminal 3B is almost operational, and that is it. There is an intention to build a terminal (4?) where the current lowcost terminal 2 resides on the opposite side of the airport for international traffic from other airlines, with the intention of handing Terminal one over to Emirates exclusively. Al Maktoum International has been pushed back to beyond 2025 if memory serves, and only cargo goes through it now, and a few FBO"s are looking into a move in the future. The LCC terminal has been done for over a year, but is not operational as I believe no airline wants to miss out on International feeder services. The Dubai Airshow will be there for the first time next year. The "mistake" in Fly Tampa's previous scenery was the Parallel runways, which were done after the scenery was released, and maintenance hangars location, not the terminal. Waleed N
November 7, 201213 yr http://www.flytampa....php?f=24&t=5738 If it hasn't been posted before on this topic, the announcement is on the FlyTampa forum Oops sorry Luis, you beat me to it! Yes, the screenshots are simply stunning! Happy Flying, Clem Wu Beta Tester for OZx, Iris Simulations and Shade.
