November 17, 2025Nov 17 Come on BlueBird! EGCC was a staple for the 757 on the KEWR-EGCC route... It was great in business first, just one seat on either side so you had a window and an aisle. My two favorites, the ability to look outside and a quick uninhibited path to the lav 😂 Have a Wonderful Day -Paul Solk

But as far as TO's and landings the EGCC that's available already works fine. If you want a more updated version of the same scenery, your choice. I rather spend money on something that's not done or available yet.

November 18, 2025Nov 18 Moderator @IanHarrison, other than a new pier at the western end of T2 the airport layout is pretty much the same as shown in UK2000. The big changes are inside the terminals.

However, he did release EGBB Birmingham last month, and he has every intention of building UK2000 versions of the larger airports in the future.

I want as much detail as possible (both internal and external), and I certainly want a really good rendition of the Aviation Viewing Park (including stuff like the cafe in the Concorde hangar). I have been there many times, and it is nice to be able to taxi past and see it from the other side of the fence.

Not sure why I would invest in another copy of the same airport. I wish Ini would try something different that's not already been done. LIRF, LFPG KDFW, KIND. Well that of course is your choice.

During the school holidays we used to get big crowds stood against the fence waiving at the 747 as we taxied past, I always used to give them a flash of the lights. I don’t think they’d be too interested in the little 787😔 787 captain. Previously 24 years on 747-400.Technical advisor on PMDG 747 legacy versions QOTS 1 , FS9 and Aerowinx PS1.
