October 23, 201312 yr In my own search for airport glory I have compiled a list of Payware companies that I am aware of that make good quality airports for the United States area. I have no desire to fly overseas or in Europe so this thread is only for US airports. If you know of anymore airport makers and what airports they make please add it to this thread. Super high quality Freeware counts as well. FlyTampa ------------- Chicago Midway - KMDW Buffalo - KBUF Boston Logan - KBOS Tampa - KTPA (I did not include any of their legacy airports) Flightbeam -------------- San Francisco Int. - KSFO Phoenix Sky Harbor - KPHX Washinton Dulles - KIAD FSDream Team --------------------- JFK Int. - KJFK Los Angeles Int. - KLAX Dallas Fort Worth Int. - KDFW Fort Lauderdale Hollywood - KFLL Las Vegas McCarran - KLAS Chicago O'Hare - KORD ImageSimulation --------------------- Atlanta Int. - KATL Denver Int. - KDEN Charlotte Douglas - KCLT San Jose Int. - KSJC I am aware of BluePrint Simulations but they are off my list as I don't like it when people hide fine print and then when you buy their products they won't work on a 64-bit system and you out your money. No refunds. I also think their airports look to sterile, like a clean pristine shiny white hospital ward. Just my opinion.

October 23, 201312 yr Orbx - Jackson Hole, Juneau, Ketchikan (they make way more stuff obviously, but I don't know if you're just geared toward more "major" airports suitable for airlines) Aerosoft - Anchorage X ImagineSim KMCI
October 23, 201312 yr Aerosoft Fairbanks, and Dutch Harbor I know PADU is quite small, but definitely capable to handle the 737 - at least the smaller versions - and possibly also the 757 (with a bit of luck), and landing those planes there is a nice challenge. Florian
October 23, 201312 yr Moderator A few others. Ontario KONT by Shez - http://library.avsim.net/search.php?SearchTerm=kont&CatID=fsxscen&Go=Search Toledo KTOL by Shex - For FS9 but works fine in FSX http://library.avsim.net/esearch.php?DLID=&Name=&FileName=tol2011.zip&Author=&CatID=root St. Louis KSTL by Taxi2Gate - http://secure.simmarket.com/taxi2gate-st.-louis-international-airport-kstl-fsx-(es_6339).phtml Orlando KMCO - Once version out now sold via FSDT but produced by Cloud9 and also Taxi2Gate is almost done with a new version of KMCO. LatinVFR has Key West. Drzewiecki Design is doing KEWR, KLGA and KJFK. Plus there is KIAH coming from FSDT and KDEN in progress by FlightBeam. Hopefully KDEN will be out by the end of the year. KIAH probably wont be done until March or later. SunSkyJet is wrapping up Detroit and is looking good so far. Avsim Board of Directors | Avsim Forums Moderator

October 23, 201312 yr there is a KLGA..Imagine Sim? Yep. And if you own the Justflight Imaginesim airport bundle (World Airports 3, IIRC), you can unlock the additional KLGA at a very affordable price: http://www.justflight.com/searchresults?category=products&query=world+airports+3&page=1 What happened to AVSIM

October 23, 201312 yr SunSkyJet Philadelphia. I don't have it but if I get a hankering to fly there I will. http://www.sunskyjet.com/scenery_phl_fsx.html What'd be cool is to get all these airports onto a google map so we could see them...and see how many are not yet done...

October 23, 201312 yr Author http://www.flightsim-scenery.com/fsx/us.html http://www.freewarescenery.com/fsx/us.html Thanks for the Payware list. I have the free one bookmarked and now the payware one. Very helpful!

October 23, 201312 yr I dunno about Latin vfr Miami. It's a bit harsh on frames. IMHO it's not as good as FSDT or Flightbeam.

October 23, 201312 yr Author Just in case our Hawaiian friends take offense for being ignored... FS Dreamteam PHNL FS Dreamteam Hawaiian Airports volumes 1 & 2 Hawaii Dillingham X - Aerosoft Hawaii is (still) part of these United States, after all. It is indeed, but since Southwest Airlines doesn't fly there it slipped my mind to include it. Same reason why I didn't include Anchorage X but this should be an ALL inclusive list of all 50 states. Don't stone me! Forgive! FORGIVE! Captain K-Man FlightBlog Channel: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCulqmz0zmIMuAzJvDAZPkWQ // Streaming on YouTube most Wednesdays and Fridays @ 6pm CST Brian Navy
