I rolled AFS2 out of the hangar the other day after a few weeks of flying the other sim. What I noticed was just how fluid everything was, the flight model, the instruments, etc. Yes AFS2 does have it's flaws (no weather to really speak of, lack of global international airports and global imagery), but as I see it, it still has great potential to give the other sims a run for their money and become the sim of our dreams.

We just need IPACs to dish out another airliner (A380 perhaps), add some more international airports (London, Dubai, Sydney etc.) and implement a plugin weather engine (e.g. TrueSky), then combined with 10M Sentinel global imagery ... Job done.

+1 , but also for the PC version. We have the A380 and Emirate's it's largest operator. It would be a perfect match with the UK and US regions already available.

No worries, it will be worth the wait I am sure. Looking forward to Faro

Looking great Colin, do you still have Tenerife, still in development?

Looking great ... can't wait.

I know it's a huge undertaking and would be quite large project for someone, but the case for a Heathrow airport scenery is compelling ...

1. Most airlines represented in AFS2 either fly from or to Heathrow, e.g. A320, 777, 747

2. The recent UK freeware project (ortho & cultivation) provides for a base scenery for the surrounding area.

3. It is central to all the existing payware & freeware scenery.

So how about it scenery developers, lets give Heathrow the attention she deserves ...

Great to hear we will be getting SIDs/STARs, will there be any chance of any new liveries for the tubeliners ?

Jan, the tm.log has many errors, but none towards the end of the page, more-so in the middle. Is this just errors I had a while back, or does the tm.log write itself with each session in AFS2?

Steve I run AFS2 in 2D, as I have quite a dated GPU. I usually see between 50-60FPS at Liverpool & Leeds/Bradford airports. BTW both are fantastic sceneries.

After a bit of trial and error & process of elimination with removing recent scenery installations, I think I have found the issue. If I remove the Palma scenery, Liverpool & Leeds/Bradford jump back to 50-60FPS.

Hi Jan, Thanks for the quick reply ... Having not used the tm.log file before, after opening it I assumed a CTRL-F *critical* would find these critical errors, if this is the correct way of finding the errors, I could not see any ?

*Reposted from Flightsim.org

Working one minute and now when flying to/from Liverpool or Leeds/Bradford I am getting sometimes as low as 2 FPS! Replay's work fine ... Every other IPACs airport is fine, including the FSPort airports and new Ibiza & Palma airports.

Has there been an update ? Any help would be much appreciated.

Another great airport to add to your impressive collection ... thanks very much, greatly appreciated.

RAF VALLEY -

If any of you are wondering where to get a great scenery for RAF Valley, you can head over to MAIW.

Its for P3D, but it also works with FSX.

Maybe someone with a bit of spare time and more talent than I, could convert it across to AFS2?

It would be great to see some Hawks flying through the Mach Loop too

Happy Australia Day !

Donation made ... cheers guys

Will we get airports included in the France VFR scenery ?

Maybe with ORBX putting TE GB on indefinite hold, this developer could take an excursion to the south coast of England and maybe even squeeze in London.

Here are some more of the organisations that are accepting donations:

Red Cross

South Australian Country Fire Service Foundation (SA)

Victorian Country Fire Association (VIC)

Queensland Rural Fire Brigades Association (QLD)

NSW Rural Fire Service (NSW)

The Association of Volunteer Bush Fire Brigades (WA)

Regarding Adelaide region airports ...

Here is a quick rundown on some key airports which provided support in the area.

Adelaide International - International Hub (used for bringing in firefighters from all over the world)

Parafield - Regional GA (used as base for flight training)

Gawler - Glider, Small GA (used as base for firebombing in the Adelaide Hills)

RAAF Edinburgh - Large airforce base (used as base for large firebombing aircraft across the region)

Kingscote - Regional GA (used as base for firebombing in the Kangaroo Island)

Flying over this area in AFS2 really gives you an appreciation for the size and extent of the fires (still burning today)

The extent of the fire front / burnt area can be viewed at the following link:

Your donations are gratefully received and thanks to everyone who is contributing to this project

I think Sydney is already in the works, so any of the other state capitals would be great.

Maybe we could somehow make this a donationware project, where proceeds go to the CFS, RFS etc to help the bush fire appeals ?

IPACS You have made my day ! Please also bring this to PC.

Please can somebody help me ...

I have tried to download this scenery 4 or 5 times now, each time with different degrees of success.

I just do not seem to be able to get the full 5.88Gb file, it's downloading only between 4.5Gb and 5Gb max, resulting in missing buildings textures etc.

Any help would be greatly appreciated, thanks.

Well I am first in line for some local liveries
