September 4, 20232 yr Just curious if there have been any updates on the status of SFO from Flightbeam? There were some pics about a year ago but I don't think i have seen or heard anything since. Are they still working on it?

September 4, 20232 yr No news yet. April 25th was the last news on SFO. Jeff D. Nielsen (KMCI) https://www.twitch.tv/pilotskcx https://discord.io/MaxDutyDay VENGEANCE a8200 Gaming PC: AMD Ryzen 9 9950X3D, GeForce RTX 5080, 64GB DDR5, 4TB (2TB/2TB) M.2 SSD, Win11 Pro
September 4, 20232 yr SFO has been in the works for some time. I was hoping they would finish updating Denver by completing Terminal C. Terminal B was completed back in February.

September 4, 20232 yr They’re awfully slow though they’re very very good at what they do. 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
September 4, 20232 yr {sarcasm} Maybe Flightbeam and Fly Tampa should give Ini a call (partnership) so they can enhance them into releasing scenery's at a moderate rate and not like in ESP days. {/sarcasm} Edited September 4, 20232 yr by JBDB-MD80
September 4, 20232 yr To be honest, I really wish another developer would step in with a version of KSFO. I don't require the supper accurate FlightBeam model with all the accurately placed placards and scuff marks, and would really just appreciate having a more accurate and authentic rendition to use. I am starting to support developers that release moderate quality airports in reasonable time frames -- and I don't consider 3 years to release KSFO as reasonable. But I am encouraged that developers like ini are just taking these on; I hope more do so. MSFS 2024.

Hard agree, even though I'm a huge fan of both Flightbeam's and FlyTampa's sceneries. It’s all well and good saying "quality takes time, don't rush it." Yet, for FlyTampa, both CYUL and seemingly now OMDB, have alternatives that have/will kill off whatever efforts FT has already invested into their development. (Apparently, FT's George said CYUL was 60% complete. Then again, EHAM was "coming soon" back in April). It's somewhat ridiculous that three years after MSFS2020's release, big, popular hubs like KSFO, KATL, EHAM, EDDF, LFPG, OMDB, OMAA, RJTT, have not been released by any decent third party developers. IMO, the MSFS market is big enough for smaller/mid-tier developers (MK-Studios, BMW/AmSim, FSim) and iniBuilds to have a go at these, no longer frightened off by the 'god tier' devs releasing their versions and taking all the sales. This is especially true with FB and FT taking an inordinate amount of time and the 'first-mover effect' being in play.

September 5, 20232 yr Flightbeam is a essentially a one-man operation (Mir). So yes, it might take him longer than most, but his end results are excellent. He also mentioned, at FS Expo, that the bar is very high these if you want be in the A-tier of scenery developers, and that takes time.

I'm a FB fan but unfortunately this means will be waiting years for KMSP, KPHX and Terminal 3 update for KDEN.

September 5, 20232 yr Flytampa and Flightbeam have become damp squibs under the MSFS2020 banner. Am hoping they come busting out of the gate this holiday season Edited September 5, 20232 yr by ErichB
September 5, 20232 yr is strange cause Flytampa and Flightbeam relesed very fast multiple airports in the 2 frist years of the sim, but this last year suddenly they slow the production Edited September 5, 20232 yr by michdb8
September 5, 20232 yr Perhaps it may be time for FlightBeam and FlyTampa to collaborate, or merge. For the sake of development staff at least, it could speed up development without compromising quality. Just a thought. Edited September 5, 20232 yr by JayViation More to say.
September 5, 20232 yr mir does such great work I'm ok waiting. In a perfect world he is working on SFO and MSP at the same time.
