Remember this:

Since Murjax seems to have disapeared, I think I could do something like this for FSX for evryone. I've already got an airport modeled that can handle any aircraft possible in the FS or real world (biggest runway is 20,000 ft). I would just have to add the private hangars in. If anyone is interested, I will start to get the lots made and I'll post pictures soon. The only thing you guys may not like is the location. In order to fit all of the runways (lots of them) and parking and stuff, I needed a remote location. So, I went with the most remote I could think of, and put it in Antarctica. I can move it anywhere though. I will take new location suggestions if you want it somewhere else, I just need lots of room. The original has some glitches I haven't been able to fix anyway, so it won't be a big deal. Who's interested?

Cool

Sounds good! Not to sure bout the Antarctica bit though, it's got problems with GPSs, and it's a bit far from anywhere. What about somewhere in the desert?

Are there any oasis in the deserts of FSX? That would be a cool place.

Okay, here's what the Antarctica base looks like:

...

Complete With:
-5 paved surfaces, 10 runways
-100s of GA Parking Spaces
-A Bunch of Military Parking
-Aircraft Carrier Practice Runway (with huge overrun, just in case)
-Windsocks and other varios scenery items
-Some hangars

So, do you guys want it bigger (can't imagine you would), smaller, what?

I'm also going to need more people interested in this to make the project like the one Murjax started for FS9. If I don't get some more people, it will just be a nice airport, no private hangars.

I'm still deciding on a final location, but once I have that I'll start putting diagrams and options for hangars up.

Cool

I think I have the location. It's in the Arizona desert. It's got a little lake for a water runway. It's pretty flat, oh and did I mention it's practically next door to the Grand Canyon? You can't really beat that kind of place. Check it out:

Don't forget to tell me about size. Is it gonna be a lttle ranch or a huge thing like above?

It is going to be for FSX. Can you do Gmax modeling? That's one thing I don't know how to do.

I'm afraid not Sad But I can handle AI traffic, and anything that involves ADE.

I'll check out the location tommorow. If anything, placing it by the lake would be a good idea, we can't forget our floaty friends Cheesy

I got the ADE part of it. AI Traffic is something I haven't yet learned though, so once this really get going, you could do that if you want to.
