    It's coming. Understandable that lots of assumptions are made since there's little info, and I apologize for that. This is by design due to competition. Also, I've stopped pumping out previews due to

    Hi Peter, You are clearly a dev from BMW since your burner account is fully dedicated to putting our brand down with cherry picked, ridiculous screenshots (we’ve got those too). No, not goin

Are there swarms of homeless tents in the lobbies?

I'm pretty sure those will be in the 2024 version.

It should probably be pointed out that just because we are all fortunate enough to have homes, a regular supply of food and enough fun-money to afford the flight simulation hobby, does not mean we should be unkind about those who are not so lucky.

Chill - they probably wouldn't want us weeping over them.

For those wonder the difference between the two KSFO, here is a great comparison.

Full support and instant buy for one of the nicest, hardworking and drama free developers.

Purchased because I've been a long time supporter of Flightbeam. That said, as someone who often does night landings, I'm a bit disappointed to see they are still using what appears to be the default green centerline taxi lighting which is unevenly placed. Also no yellow/green centerline lighting on the high speed runway exits. Aside from that, the airport is beautiful!

the BMW actually seems to be more accurate in the modelling department in areas (when compared to the google imagery), but the textures are better on the FB one.

 

edit:

The FlightBeam ramp textures have black backgrounds behind the aircraft typing on the parking line, IRL SFO from what I can see from pictures online does not have that, BMW is correct there.

 

The more I look, the more I see the BMW is actually more visually accurate than the flight beam one. Comparing the above images to images on google maps and other places online.

Probably won't matter much to people who don't actually visit or work at KSFO often, but there's like entire sections of building missing

That is disappointing and should be a standard for every dev out there. Hopefully he can address this.

For us old timers that is true but there are a lot of new folks to the hobby who can't decided.
