WHERE?!

[Mark Montalette]

Where can I get that docking tunnel thingy like when you enter the gate and you walk through that long tunnel thingy then into the plane.. where can i download it??

Only large detailed airports like Seattle int'l, O' hare, Los Angeles int'l, ect, have gates and ramps

What you are refering to is a jet bridge. YOu have many of them as default scenery in FS2K2, but you have to have sort of a decent setup to really enjoy it. Set all your scenery levels to max and then go to KORD (Chicago O'Hare)





Hope this helps!

Nice shots Eric

where did you get those runway textures? I've looked for them but can't seem to find them

[Eric_Rose]

Thx Andrew!

Go to AVSIM, Files Library, This Month's Hot Files...it should be the 8th one down.
Or try

(you get two AVSIM popup widows, but the main window should have it.)

Thanks Eric!

Is DFW international not big enoug?  I maxed out all of my scenery settings and it doesn't show the ramps.

For some reason not all large international airports have as much detail as others

I know...I have been wanting DFW to come alive since FS4. I did find this site that has incredible payware, but you need a monster system to take advantage of it.

I agree Eric, I live 5 miles from KDFW and I have had the Simflyers since it came out, totally unflyable for me with any AI. I design scenery and started to add to it, but realised with my eye for detail I wouldn't be happy until it came out like the simflyers one! LOL.
I have tried the freeware addons, but nothing I wanted to keep. I just decided instead to redo the AFCADs to allow for full AI and all runways enabled, no gates, but lots of planes! (might have to change that if AA goes under)

I was shocked at first that one of the top ten airports in the country was so undetailed. Good news is that the new FS version will have a detailed KDFW! WOO HOO!

[darkhorse]

I know how you feel.  I used to live about 45 miles from KDFW and would at least like to have my home airport properly detailed.  I think Bangor Intl was more correct lol.  I now live about 45 miles from it and hard to believe a one runway airport is listed as an international.  Used to be a military one, so the runway can handle anything.

[Eric_Rose]

Hey there Mikel, yeah...I work at the airport and continue to see so many things that would be sooo cool in the sim. Are you serious that DFW will be detailed in Century Of Flight???
COOL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Too bad about the storm this past weekend! 87 AA planes damaged and pulled out of service and 36 American Eagle planes also Out of service...including 6 of 10 CRJ-700's. Talk about bad timing...but that's Texas!

[Eric_Rose]

Hey Tipster, Can't seem to find kdfw-tk.zip anywhere. tried simviation, flightsim and avsim. even tried to break up the title....still nothing. Any suggestions?

[darkhorse]

took me a bit to find it.  I had to search all catigories with  "KDFW-TK" as the only key word.  The gates aren't as good as the above pics, but it is better than nothing.  And I'm not sure about their alignment.  My jet was parked on the left of the gate, away from the door.
