Thanks for reminding us this global event.
I still think, a list of POIs combined with these background stories would be a good addition to this scenery.

Hello Rodeo,
I agree the list of POIs would be extensive. Lots of new ground was broken building this scenery and the coverage area is outrageously large. Did we ever calculate the coverage area? I remember we added 9 custom airports plus that unmade list of POIs.
I just made a rough outline of the coverage area using Google Measure and it looks like the Apollo50 scenery is 10,000 sq miles of high definition scenery. That is 26,000 sq km. wow. No wonder the user community is so excited.
