i plan to get that cargo terminal unlocked right away to start building it up. Especially with the 747 update that is going to be beyond incredible there. cannot wait. the SCL grind is over so now hammering IAD/GRU/BKK & LHR to build up the SP for the weekly GP purchase

If we can have Cathay’s B748F and B744F as local contracts definitely I would consider doing cargo first so that we will have a very comfortable start without buying various ground handling equipment for passenger operation.

Don’t forget the 747-200Fs and maybe if we’re lucky the 747-300Fs. I bet we will get local akin to NGO and NCA 748Fs and it will be the path I’ll be taking :laughing:

I don’t know if they will be event only :thinking:

That’ll be sad if its the case. Adding all variants of 747 just to hide the majority behind the event wall. Already too many normal liveries locked away behind that like the Corsair 744, Malev F70 and FlyBe Q400 when there’s nothing special about them lol. I hope we’re getting a good amount of liveries for these variants and they’re not going to be a few events and then just player aircraft.

Could begin here away from the terminal too,

Good for a C class start which I feel the devs are going to want to start with, though you can upgrade quickly to E gates here too.

Yeah, could have to really earn those terminals as in MCT

This is what i love about the big airports. i want it to start as small as possible so you really have to work for it. When im going to stay true to life (or at least some classic routes) as i can then it will really be worth it once i advance up

…thats the other option in my mind. Thought it might be the south apron because only one rumway is involved at first then, but who knows :wink:

Properly be B734 DHL :sweat_smile: in the local, or some Chinese cargo carriers.

Probably with the three stands in dotted lines? 3 C stands…

Maybe this is a hint at that possibility?

It will definitely happen as I suppose but the question here would be how close it can get. I am looking for very close routes like PVG, TPE or so.

north vietnam, philipines, taiwan, china up to maybe PVG should be local i think

I got offered at NGO the 748F for a local flight to HKG, I think the devs can hard code them in as all other local airlines are regionals at HKG from NGO but NCA isn’t.

Has to be a con, as I only get BA 170 for local.

If this peace deal with Russia gets figured out over the next couple weeks, any chances of Russia airlines being added in the Xmas update?

I dont think so, first there have to be peace, second we have to wait if the restrictions will be lifted.

@Charlie I wanted to clarify something.))
Would it be okay to include these airlines in the suggestion list on the forum?
Since we’re mainly discussing aviation here, I thought it might be useful to have them in the general list of missing airlines — just as a visual example and for completeness.
If this is inappropriate or not the right time, please let me know — I completely understand.
