SXM Pre Release discussion

New Ground crew? Is there a picture or a link?

Literally right here @sladebuck

i presume that would be a wingman that help marshaller looking into both left-right wingtip when aircraft come in to the pit stop.

One thing that has crossed my mind is that the Washington to Rio M route makes a stopover in SXM, although a different route, will these also count towards connections and be able to be handled by our connection partners?

I mentioned that too and Tom said he mentioned it to the devs

Hopefully something comes from that, however I’m expecting the stopover to be moved to another nearby airport such as Barbados or St Kitts.

New teaser :slight_smile:

Do we have any guess of when it the update will be? I have read through most posts and can’t see any date. Also, when did we have an update before this, as I haven’t heard of an update since winter last year

They never really give an indication, since it’s a massive update (3-4 new/updated planes, new airports, new UI & system). Giving a date will give the players false hope. I’d rather a good, smooth update rather than a rushed and boched one.

Last major update was in February (Winter + AN-22), then a few bug fixes, and then a small top gun Easter Egg update in May. So yeah it is 7 months since a major update. Kinda a new record for longest duration between major updates lol.

At least this one will be absolutely great so there is always a silver lining.

Does anybody happen to know what the situation with the A300B2 is, and the Aer Lingus A330-200? They have sat on the feedback portal since last year (sometime between the release MCT and LEJ)

Be interesting see if anything comes of these with 2.0.

This update surprised us all starting with the B777 rework. Then came the information as a new new airport, and then the rework of the DHC-6 and B747, all of which impressed us.
Maybe after this is done, it will be the turn of Airbus aircraft (A320 series, A330neo, A350 reworking, etc.) to be added next.

It is no exaggeration to say that this kind of imagination is one of the best things about WoA.

What is the top gun easter egg?is that the f14 off the carrier in san diego?

Yes

It would be great to get the A330 up and running for Aer Lingus. They’re a global airline but not having L aircraft in-game treats them like a regional.

As for the A30B, I dunno, there’s already three A300 variants in-game, personally I’d like the devs to focus on more underrepresented families like the MD-11.

Not sure if it’s been mentioned, but will the 747-400 replace the existing 747 model or will it be considered as a new aircraft all together?

748 will be refurbished later

Tom, tell devs to add the shadow under the front gear. It looks like levitating now :slight_smile: TNX
