|1= Given the international flavour of our community, I'd suggest somewhere outside of North America for this release, but probably not Frankfurt or one of the airports that regularly hosts serious ATC services. I'm not particularly familiar with what airports have been developed, so I don't have a suggestion to make. A couple of related questions: 1) I assume we are going to include scenery for the selected airport within the release package? 2) The Cessna in-sim tutorials and the cross-country tutorial in The Manual are based around KSFO. Would we want to continue so ship some KSFO scenery with the release to avoid users having to download those areas? | |||
