Latest screenshots are great!

Just a question: are the jetways animated so they can join with the aircraft (in FSX using inverse kinematics)?

There's no point in my view. AES will provide moving jetways anyway.
My Jet models are quite complex(1000+ polys each), so rigging them for IK might require a simplified model; & even cause some slow down.

Wow, that looks absolutely stunning. And dare I say - finally! How long has it been since you've first hinted at KBUF? 5 years? ;)

Sign me up for the FS9 version :)

That older version was cancelled. I was disheartened by FSX's many problems upon release.

This version is only 5 months old. I didn't re-use much from the fs9 version.

These previews look great. Although not an airport that I would normally buy, just seeing how good it looks will probably change my ming.

I wonder if Martin is working on an airport as well?

F#CK!NG BEAUTIFUL!!

And this is a great region to have a new FS airport. Great for flights between Midway and JFK/LGA/BOS/Green State. Damn you picked a good one!! :D

Ok so I have to pop that big question....

Is this the airport that Martin was refering to the new "K" airport that can land 747's etc? Or is that another project in the works?????

There's another 'K' coming soon. No more questions about it please. Martin will show it when he's ready.

It's another wonderful masterpiece of FlyTampa's great developers!

The FlyTampa's sceneries always gives us great pleasure and fun to fly!

George and Martin, thanks again for making the virtual flight more real!

Great work!

it reminds me of flight scenery KPDX, I love it, can't wait! would you consider ZBAA next? there isn't any really nice scenery for ZBAA. But for the time being, I will be waiting for Buffalo, it will probably go very nice with Aerosoft's US cities Buffalo.

Fantastic Work George! At the edge of my seat, one question - when will the rough estimate of release be? Ive bought 2 aircrafts and 4 scenery this year so I want to buy some aircrafts (I only buy 1 addon a month) so if it is release in July, I may have to hold back :(
