Airport Scenery

I was wondering how VATSIM would go about dealing with changes to airports. Particularly one airport, Newark Liberty International, if the proposal goes through in real life that is.

 

 

It's quite a drastic change that's supposed to happen over a 40 year period in several phrases to keep the airport operational. This being the case, there will probably be points in time where our simulators won't have an up to date scenery for Newark which could cause problems for VATSIM operations. So here I am, wondering how VATSIM will deal with this.

 

For anybody curious about the proposed changes to Newark, image below:

James, this occurs regularly in our virtual world. We just deal with it on a case by case basis, as VATSIM itself does not dictate scenery versions etc.

 

As in this case it is still in planing and with a 40yrs (amazing) timeline, some generous individual, or even payware group will sit down and redo the ‘afcads’ and ‘bgls’.

 

I hope i’m around in 40yrs lol.

 

I should have reposted this link http://www.freewarescenery.com/fsx.html I use it to find updates.

The runways 4L/22R 4R/22L 11 & 29 and [Mod - Happy Thoughts]ociated taxiways look much the same. It's only the terminals and new runway that look new.

 

These changes are chump change when compared to whatever they're doing to KORD!
