    I have not tried it in FS2024 yet. I tried 2024 for about a month and switched back to 2020 until things improved a little.

    Absolutely love your work on these airports. I dont know if you could but is it possible that you could do McGhee Tyson Airport (KTYS)? Currently there are scenery packs for it but they aren't realistic enough.. One of the packs has the 2 cargo companies switched, another being "Signiture"'s Open hangar isnt in the sim..

    Nice layout of the airport with barb wires in the parking lot and benches in the front. Would have been nice to see a few people on the benches and a kid by the fence watching airplanes. Just adds to immersive. Thank you!!!

    Great airport! Only issue I see is there are no statics there so the airport is completely desolate. I have a feeling in real life it's a pretty busy place
