One of the thing that make me the most exited is that the people who modeled this(for X-plane):
are the people modelling lhr for WOA

Awesome going to be good, glad they are doing all four terminals plus cargo obviously only one will be VIP terminal which used by Royals and World leaders.
Yikes thats more than IAD and MCT combined i’m pretty sure
Yes, the model and pathfinding is technically done (as in they’ve completed a first draft) but now they have to test everything to ensure it works.
Whist that’s good it’s not the same as real LHR which from the Heathrow website it says:
Heathrow measures 1,227 hectares. The airport has two runways, the Northern Runway which is 3,902 metres by 50 metres and the Southern Runway which is 3,658 metres by 50 metres.
- Number of aircraft stands served by an airbridge: 192
- Number of remote stands: 97
- Number of cargo stands: 15
- Height of control tower: 87m (285ft)
115 gates , 66 of which can support wide-body aircraft and 24 gates that can support an Airbus A380.

Well maybe that’s also considered the fact that irl, some double and triple jetway gates can serve multiple S and M aircraft at the same time, Which isn’t possible in the game.
Edit:I just looked it up and multiple sources say it’s 124 served by a jetbridge. The only airport that actually has 192 is ATL, so you might have seen the wrong thing. Idk tho

Was from here Facts and figures | Heathrow
Though elsewhere has said 115 gates , 66 of which can support wide-body aircraft and 24 gates that can support an Airbus A380. So who knows.
186 was a manual count by me. Might be 192 overall. Definitely 15 cargo but there’s a history of not exactly matching due to game mechanics and requirements
This looks dope!

I actually might be wrong about 124. I just calculated the total according to Wikipedia but all of those might not have jetways. So 115 is probably right
I have no idea how my tablet will handle this airport??
A cool easter egg would be Jerry from BigJetTV at Myrtle Avenue during a storm, throwback to Storm Eunice.

That would be funny if they did that.

When you open London airport,
Do you start a budget from scratch?
Do you start with limited plane stands S,M,L and XL?
Can I transfer all my current fleet?
Yes yes and no and the 2nd yes is only for S and M aircraft
I’m going to lock this thread now LHR has been released.
