iniBuilds Zakynthos (LGZA) - Trailer

This one is definitely on my list. Terrainy Studios were developing this airport for MSFS 2020 when they disappeared into the twilight zone, so I have been hoping ever since that another developer would tackle it.

Lovely real life destination and always love the approaches into greek airports in the sim.
However, there's very little ATC scheduling in the LGGG FIR on VATSIM, making it difficult to plan flights to Greece: https://statsim.net/atc/table
Think I'll skip LGZA as I've already got troubles to catch ATC when flying to LGAV, LGMK and LGHI.

Hopefully we will get to see Greek Islands World Update before Germany, Austria World Update 100.

All depends on how willing the Greek government is willing to cooperate and if they get access to the necessary data.

There are 3rd party to almost every Greek airport being sold. Why would it be any different and necessary to get government cooperation ?

Because World Updates do more than just airports?

It usually includes new satellite imagery, photogrammetry and new elevation data.

Some of that might include military or sensitive government infrastructure, so they need approval to use it in the sim. For example, for one of the world updates (I don't recall which one) was delayed because the Military of a country needed to go over it to make sure it didn't capture imagery of anything sensitive to national security.

Sometimes the data could also be owned by the Government, so Microsoft has to negotiate for the usage rights.

Microsoft wants full usage permission for all first party stuff going into the sim. Saves their asses from lawsuits and such.

Not disagreeing with you, just don't understand what is difference when all the new imagery is already avail on Bing maps.
