KONT Ontario International MSFS released

[Wise87 1,210]

It's here. I've been wanting a good Ontario for years. 

[B777ER 2,353]

Btw this and the new KDAB I’ll be a little lighter in the wallet.

When the PMDG 747F is released this will good buy.

That screenshot of the parking lot and trees etc...flight sim is starting to look very realistic.  We've come a long way from wireframe

Thanks for sharing! I fly next and near KONT a lot!

I would have insta-bought this if I was still flying on Pilot Edge...  I have quite the socal collection in P3D and XP11 hehe.

I'll still consider it - I really like Verticalsim they make nice products.  I have their DYT, OMA, SRQ, and SRY airports.

I'll be the first to say I'm frustrated. The field looks great, the terminal looks great. Performance seems to be solid and I'll preface this by saying I own almost all of VerticalSims sceneries and have enjoyed all of them, but I very much dislike that the previews for this product show a full fleet of UPS aircraft, but only to find out they don't exist in the final product. The only static aircraft that exists are the FedEx feeders and a single PrimeAir. I'm not opposed to leaving out statics, but make it clear in your description that it doesn't include them. The dev used FSLTL to stage aircraft as though they existed in the product. I've read the feature list over and over and there is nothing that clearly defines they don't exist. I'm not here to riot or shame the dev, but I expect a clear description or allow us the ability to turn them on/off.

 

What you see in the preview vs. what you actually get.

I think most devs assume we’re using addon AI traffic.

Still plenty of devs that offer the user the customization to turn this on and off. Most inibuilds sceneries allow it for instance. A few UPS aircraft on the ground I can't imagine is that difficult. Just seems silly to have an entire UPS ramp empty. Not everyone wants to fight with adding AI traffic to spots.

There is a dev on flightsim.to that makes static aircraft packages for most airports. Just keep checking there and it’s free.

I actually LIKE that statics are not included.  Very rarely I'll enjoy them.  For instance there are some airports with almost abandoned aircraft.  That is a good situation for a static.  Otherwise I'd rather use 3rd party.  Nothing worse than ugly looking statics.  Or pulling into a gate on vatsim only to find an unmovable static.

Only to mention, there was a topic on another recently released airport where people demanded statics to be removed (sorry, don't recall from head which one it was).

The optimum is certainly a switch, as some devs have it, but as a user of PSXT/RT I personally dislike statics as well.

Kind regards, Michael

I wouldn't mind an option for some Cargo Airline statics at airports like KONT, KSDF, KMEM, PANC just to give it some added immersion. Cargo flights will not block all the gates/ramp spots as most flights on Vatsim are passenger flights.

So where's ini with that Airbus A300?

Or PMDG with the 747-8F?

Or whoever with a 757/767F?

Lovely scenery at any rate!
