Didn't they captured just that on the E3 Announcement Video? I saw marshallers and vehicles moving around on the KLAX part of the video.

Yes, at the Jetways. But I'm sure at Signature, or Atlantic ramps at lax, maybe crickets?  show me, I'm from Missouri.  Lol

We‘ve also got a glimpse of EGLL, but from some distance.

This is the shot we all remember,  but let's hope this is all over the airport, and all airports. Not just the main terminal at majors

Thanks for posting.

And we don't know if LAX received some special treatment as it is one of the iconic airports. Or if we can expect that at every default airport.

Its nice all that clutter is in-sim so addons don't collide with each other. Like addon fuel trucks driving through static aircraft, or pushback trucks driving through jetways. But let's all hope, the WHOLE airport is alive.

looks like I missed the ground crew in this shot.

Or even that "sleeping bear" people keep talking about laying on the runway. Lol

Don't forget the caribou.

They've already said there will be plenty of scope for third party airport developers and they will probably be the best at it so I doubt they'll be LAX quality at all airports, we can be pretty certain of that. In fact am sure I’ve heard some feedback from the alpha that many airports have accurate building placement but are basic in regards to detail. Which is what you’d expect considering the amount of airports we’re talking across the world.

Aslong as it’s possible for third parties to recreate the level of detail shown at LAX then I’ll be pretty happy with that.

Something I would like to see implemented for GA ramps is tail-in parking, not the nose-in parking of previous versions of flight simulators.

But I believe it should be in-sim to avoid all the conflicts we have now with multiple developers stepping on each other and causing collisions.

I really don't want a push back tug running over my marshaller.

I just don't see how that’s possible for 40000 airports to expect that level of detail even with all of Asobos trickery that would be asking a great deal.

I'm not asking for the world, and nothing that doesn't already exist, though poorly done by some 3rd party developers. No reason a marshaller can't be standing at a parking spot waiting for me.

GSX does that now and in all likelihood will continue to do so in MFS. What’s the point of an SDK if the core product contains all the things brought to us by third party developers?
