  1. FWIW, I can tell you that our taxi speed limit is 30kts ground speed. That's all I have to offer, lol.
  2. Thanks for the reply! Figured that would be the case...oh well! Looking forward to the next version. Hopefully, they'll have a lot of the flaws fixed as you said. 😁
  3. Hey all, Haven't been around in ages, but just starting to get back into T3D Pro again, and already starting to pull my hair out lol. Is it possible to get into the game files and edit various characteristics of aircraft? For example, things like takeoff acceleration and distance; landing rollout speeds, etc. It's super frustrating watching biz jets take forever to takeoff (they're rocket ships and accelerate very fast), and prevents a good flow. Also, what about editing the distance they travel once turning off the runway? Places like LAS and SFO, and I'm sure others, have a few spots where the aircraft will travel past the first taxiway rendering it unusable, and it really throws a wrench into everything. These basic parameters, as you know, make it very difficult to run the game in certain configurations, like SFO's standard "Land 28s, depart 1s." Just curious. Hope you've all been well! Edit: I should clarify that, by changing parameters, I guess I meant more of "Is it possible to assign a Challenger the characteristics of the 73W" in the game...something simple like that. Even though takeoff distance might be a bit more, at least they'll accelerate and get out of the way at a more reasonable rate.
  4. I bought it, played it a few times, and never re-visited it again. When FedEx has their busy times, it's definitely a mad house. Outside of those times, it's pretty dead. (I don't think I used a custom schedule though.)
  5. @vic I don't use voice. Can you tell us which runways will be unusable? Thanks.
  6. Okay, bought OMDB. Thanks, everyone!
  7. OMDB is the one I'm watching right now, and it does look like a good one. I don't really need good visuals as I always have the ADIRS so large, but nice to hear nonetheless.
  8. Yeah, think I'll pass then, thanks @DeltaVII !
  9. Good find, thanks! I'm watching several YouTube videos of various airports right now. Decisions, decisions, haha.
  10. What's everyone's opinion on Barcelona? Watching a video on it now and looks like a nice layout. Is it buggy?
  11. That's a great suggestion, and now I realize that I didn't say I was open to airports outside the US. I should've said I was open to that, so thanks for the recommendation!
  12. Thanks, yeah, I like LAX and BOS a lot. Just looking for something different. Might try MCO, guess I'll think about it and see if more replies follow. 😉
  13. Hey folks! I'm not sure which to grab next. Just kinda getting back into this game recently. I just bought JFK this morning, and I'm disappointed- lots of bugs with taxi instructions. What would be your pick for my next airport? I have these airports now: KJFK KSAN KLAX KLAS KPHX KMEM KBOS KPHL KATL Been thinking about MCO. How's RDU though? I'd like something that stays pretty busy with a good a/c mix.
  14. Ok, I figured that was the case, but thought I'd check. Maybe with the new TowerXXX coming we'll get updated airports, too. 🙂 A current Taxiway T and S at LAX would be awesome. Thanks!
  15. I know service packs get released, but just wondering if they will get updated to reflect new taxiways, etc. I'm playing LAX right now and the game version is much different than the current layout.
  16. Happy Thanksgiving to you as well! Currently sitting in a hotel room, Day 2 of 8...about to fire up some T3D Pro. 😉 ETA: Bought JFK a bit ago.
  17. Pro was already out when I discovered the game. It had some features that made it an easy sell over Standard, and I don't even use voice.
  18. Oh, we were referring to actually taxiing the plane around the surface, not navigating the terminals. Sorry for the confusion! DFW is actually pretty nice in that regard.
  19. I've flown into ATL a couple of times. Wasn't an issue getting around either time. We parked at the GA ramp on the north and landed each time on the north side. The more difficult airports to get around at are ORD, SFO, and even DFW at times.
  20. @crbascott hit the nail on the head with his list. I would agree that LAS is probably the most fun on that list, with PHX a very close second. I wouldn't spend money on MEM...hate to say that and trying not to sound negative. SFO, like he said, can be fun, but only if using non realistic configurations. Another fun one is ATL. It can definitely get overwhelming quickly, and it can be really tricky getting planes from one side of the airport to the other. Lots of potential conflict in the "alleys."
  21. Thanks for the feedback, fellas!
  22. For those of you that have both TRACON and Tower 3D Pro: does TRACON have little bugs or nuisance items like we deal with in T3DP? Meaning things like planes taking the wrong exit off the runway, slowly taxing off the runway, weird pushback issues, etc. If TRACON has lots of little things like that then I may pass on it, but it it's pretty squared away then I'll probably pick it up. Thanks!
  23. No problem. An actual "cross runway" kind of command would be nice, but this works just as well. One gotcha...some airports will have a glitch where the plane will taxi onto its departure runway when you have given these types of clearances. I've had planes taxi into the backs of planes that are in position for takeoff, which results in a crash. You'll just have to try it and see.
