INN - Conversation

Turns out we didn’t see it in the remodel :cry:. Might be the biggest letdown, was hoping for some more real life 757 content but zilch.

INN remodel is beautiful but it really could’ve done with a bit more detailing further out to prevent the floating buildings when aircraft land from the East (The pre-update way) as they ruin some otherwise pretty screenshots. It also could’ve had some work making the cow mountain a bit prettier, doesn’t have to be airport levels of pretty but just so it doesn’t look like Google Earth from 2007.

Floating buildings in the background as per below in front of the tail (More vivid on landing shots from that end of the runway),

I would’ve been happy to deal with the not realistic diagonal D stands if we’d had some form of 757 to populate them with as I know the reasoning for them and the 757/767 being forced to the edge of the taxiway is because the 767-400 and MD-11 are permitted to be at the airport but no new 757s has really thrown a spanner in the works of what could’ve been my new favourite airport.

Personally I’d have liked to have seen a new D- stand implemented at INN, separating the 757 from the rest as irl, the 767s made a stop in Vienna for fuel and to pick up more passengers before they continued to far off destinations as the runway isn’t long enough for a fully fuelled 767 to operate in and out of (Maybe a -200 I don’t know the specifics on them). The 767 was used on non-stop charter flights by Lauda to Greece and Spain from INN but we can’t do that anyway in-game. It feels like the airport was compromised in order to allow aircraft that shouldn’t be at the airport to be there. I’m happy with lack of realism, I mean we have fake liveries in-game like Prime Air’s 748F, but it’s just disappointing to see INN done this way.

Feels like the ‘INN’ update was actually the A330 family update with graphics oh and Innsbruck had a remodel btw. It feels hollow to me and I’m not really feeling the urge to play it. New graphics have made me go back to IAD though so I suppose that’s a plus.

Edit: Actually a bit more miffed, no spotting position on the river’s shoreline for these alternative landings,

I feel the combination of A330 and INN was a bad one, maybe split in 2, A330 with more liveries as there are so many more that could’ve been seen and then INN with more relevant liveries and maybe retro liveries, maybe combined with the DO328 or ATR remodel.
