I dont quite get what people are on about with options for slower devices, the Devs have already introduced 3 graphics settings and the 2d mode (requires barely any graphics then) which is what I play on. Not to mention people ask for remodels of those 1.0 models knowing this comes with the caveat of making the game run worse as its more polygons for the phone to process.

That’s my single biggest want right now. The lack of camera options, especially close-up near the tarmac, and of customizability is the biggest issue rn

Can’t wait! Excellent job of continuing to evolve the game! This will be a superb update!
For those who don’t know ICAO size categories:
A: very small aircraft, usually just general aviation
B: larger general aviation plus smaller passenger/cargo aircraft, up to about a CRJ700 size
C: most current S and M planes in the game will fall into this category including CRJ900, E-Jet series (E170+), entire Boeing 737 (including MAX) series, and entire Airbus A320 series (including Neo)
D: Smaller wide-body aircraft plus the Boeing 757. Includes Boeing 767 and Airbus A300.
E: Most other wide-body aircraft excluding 747-8 and A380. Includes B777, B787, A330, A350
F: 747-8 and A380
G: Only plane like stated above is the Antonov AN225

Absolutely sublime looking update! So excited for it! These devs can do incredible things! Cant wait for the CRJs, happy i can finally get my alliance livery on a couple of mine!
Even though i probably wont play GRU i’m still very excited for the new taxiway systems! And for the runway lights and new UI, It look out of this world! Thanks @kubasan @Flyboys
They literally said Q1…? Also, like they also said, don’t hold them to it. That’s the expected timeline and estimation, but ALWAYS subject to change, especially if bugs come up in testing.

Why do important things always happen when I’m at school 
The UI looks exiting, hopefully it allows for better navigation and not having to scroll through hundreds of contracts to find specific ones

This update is gonna be a game changer!
I’m glad to hear about the category change for planes
It really does open up possibilities especially with gate parking and taxi exits, according to wingspans (hopefully)
Also seeing the video, seems like planes hold short more at the actual hold short line which I personally appreciate.
I do hope that all planes (except maybe the Dash 6) are handled in the same order as M planes
Looking forward to this one. Especially the liveries coming with the new CRJ models. I just hope Aruba airlines is in it for SXM, I need a contract from Aruba 
Granted I don’t want to nitpick already but the tail of the CRJ2 looks off in the preview
Amazing work as always, thanks for all your hard work!

Sounds like a lot of fun! Especially class D will be very important for a lot of airports!

FAA and ICAO classes are different. ICAO is primarily based on wingspan.

This will be an exciting development in terms of ICAO aircraft sizes and capabilities. But after investing hundreds of euros in this game so far, as a Swiss I ask myself why there isn’t a new European airport added? Innsbruck and Bari were the least important airports. We are waiting for something like Basel or Zurich. Thanks for a very great game, very addictive, but missing individual airports. Greetings from Switzerland

You can quite literally find what they are in teal life and that’s what they’ll be
As far as I know no current aircraft in game are smaller than B

Jesus gotta learn the new UI again and is that times on arrival aircraft again? Also good to see the CRJ be remodelled.

Oh, good to know. Thanks for sharing that!
Thanks so much for doing this as I believe this is the evidence that you hear the voice from the community!

BTW I also found an image on my computer showing wingspan categories of Boeing planes (and MD’s) so that could give you guys a clear reference.
B778 and B779 should be E since the wing can be folded to fit in Cat E stands.
