Very nice. Shoreham is an airport that begs to be done well.. I miss not having the OSS version in FSX as like the FTX stuff, it came with area scenery, not just the airport.

OSS used to do some great stuff, short lived though the company was :-(

Shoreham (thankfully) was reissused under the JustFlight tag, and in either guise it's always been one of my favourites

Kind regards

Did it ever get released for FSX John or did it stay for FS9 only?

The OSS terminal building at Shoreham was and remains one of my favourite FS sceneries. Very impressive considering what everyone else was producing at the time.

I had a look Dave and sadly I think this says it all :-(

It does indeed John. Thanks for confirming

So it's lucky that you've still got FTX UK, eh, Dave? When FTX Shoreham comes out you can reinstall UK and just pop it in and enjoy flying from Shoreham again! Hurrah!

Or perhaps not ...

One of the beta testers has just posted a single pic of detail of the terminal building at Shoreham.

Also a mention that Bournemouth has been added to the list of airports under development and confirmation that they're not ignoring the North and there will eventually be a geographical balance of airfields across England.

And here are some of the landmarks to be included in FTX Wales. We're also promised a 'surprise' added value with Wales but no clues. Some of the forum members are desperately hoping for Mach Loop and Valley - but no official hints

No Mach loop due to cost of licensed data apparently, but a later addon might come about.

That seems to be the difference between FTX and GenX many folk are missing. They want FTX to look like GenX with autogen which I guess is what we all want but that isn't what FTX is about is it

Nice vid footage. I notice Johnny American didn't go too low. The Hawks and C130 could have flown underneath them
