"very close to release....." and "almost ok ... I'm preparing seasonal textures ....." (FSDT's Alessandro; on Facebook) Well, watching that video I already know I'm going to be spending hours editing that ridiculously inaccurate AFCAD file... Regardless, wow does it look great. Can't wait for this one.
May 22, 20197 yr Anyone hear if we get a discount if we have the old version? Jason Weaver - WestWind Airlines; FlyUK Airlines; VirtualUnited.org
May 22, 20197 yr We used to get a ton of asrs from KORD as atc would constantly ask the 340s to keep their speed up and the guys always had problems with the energy management trying to slow down at the last minute
May 22, 20197 yr I do not think that there will be any discount. The scenery is a totally new development and does not share anything with its predecessor. Only the jetways need some love to make them functional with AI traffic. But Umberto said that AI support for their GSX L2 jetways will come and knowing FSDT they stand to their word. With the massive GSX update and KORD, we are surely in for a treat.

We confirmed multiple times, even in our first preview video made about a year ago, there WILL be a discount for previous O'Hare owners. Yes, even if it's a total remake.

May 23, 20197 yr How long until the KORD from FSTD will not match the real airport. KORD is and has been under construction for 50 years. Im not joking either, i seriously wanna know how long until they change a rwy, add a taxiway etc. Thanks Ron Hamilton "95% is half the truth, but most of it is lies, but if you read half of what is written, you'll be okay." __ Honey Boo Boo's Mom

The next big plan is for Terminal 2 to be torn down and a brand new "Global Terminal" to be built. They've already had a design competition and the funding appears to be mostly in place. Scott
May 23, 20197 yr I'm sure devs will cross that taxiway bridge when they get to it.... in the meantime the update will be just fine for a few years. Jason Weaver - WestWind Airlines; FlyUK Airlines; VirtualUnited.org

Scott Do you know when theyre demolishing it and rebuilding? I want to buy the FSDT ORD but it dont want to spend money on it for it to be out dated right away, ill just use freeware AFCADS.

A lot is still up in the air, but I think they're shooting for a 2028 completion date. That said, they're also supposed to start work on some satellite terminals next year and I believe additions and renovations to terminal 5 start this year (if they haven't already begun - haven't been into O'hare since last year). Bottom line is, I wouldn't expect KORD to remain unchanged anytime in the next decade. Scott
