    I'm late to the party, but this airport is done very nicely! I plan to use it in 2024 and it looks nice, but I haven't play tested it yet, but I assume it will work okay. Thanks!

    It works! There is some confusion about gate numbers, e.g. on the ground it says D53, GSX thinks it's C 53 and for BATC it's just 53 :) Great scenery btw, thank you Windhover!

    To my knowledge all of the gates reflect the current airport layout.

    They are not. Airlines are scattered all over they do not have the correct parking assignments.

    Excellent! Thank you for creating this! Wisconsin aiports get looked-over and never made. GRB, ATW, MSN, CWA, RHI.. those would be amazing to have as well.

    This is a very nice piece of scenery. As I have been to this airport many times, I noticed that the concourses align closely with the real airport. Some recommendations for this airport are to make custom jetways if possible. And the main airside/check-in and parking garage could use some work so it does not just look like a block. I understand this is freeware and I dont have a good prespective on making airports but other than the recommendations fantastic job!

    Thanks! Those were actually both things I had wanted to add but I quickly discovered my skills in Blender were not up for the task. The terminal check-in and parking structure were a bit too much for my abilities and the custom jetbridges require animations and some coding to function correctly which is not something I know how to do, unfortunately.

    Thank you for making this. As others have said, KMKE never gets any payware. And if we do, it's always half baked and that is generally the only one out there. So thank you!


    Only question is will you add the correct parking assignments?
