I had to delete some Fokker 50 discussions - this thread is about Iceland X, so let's get back to topic.

Looking good and must say that I´m realy excited to buy this, but about Egilstadir airport I just came across news to day in our logal tv that a approachligts has been instalet at the south end of the runway I´m just wondering if that is in your design and if not would it be a problem to add it her is a video from that news you just have to click (sja myndir) http://www.ruv.is/fr...sstadaflugvelli. And another question when do you thing that we will see first sceens from Keflavik X

Impressive, I wasn't aware of that. Will have to add this before release.

Keflavik might not be released before christmas as I also have Larnaca FS9 to get finished.

Anybody want to win a free copy of the upcoming Iceland X? Find the latest preview of this addon on the internet and provide a link.

This one!

It is in fact the video in your link, Bjöggi. With your first post in our forums you won a free copy, nice.

If you want to watch the video, please open it on youtube and watch in 720p HD in full screen, it's worth it!

Great video, lovely scenery. I was waiting when you'll show Eyjafjallajökull

Must buy for me. I'm not a big fan of phototextures, and after FTX I'm in love in handcrafted landclass scenery. Great to see something closer to Europe.

[Waleed 29]

Not so impressive Thorsten, until it is in my hangar.

GREAT scenery, I feel this will become a best seller not only for trans atlantic routes but also within Iceland and for bush pilots. Eventhough the last time I visited this island

was on a 3 day stop over in 1972 it brought me right back. Should become a best seller! GREAT WORK!

Will Iceland X include the new 5° slope ILS approach and also some updates on NDB and LLZ approaches at Akureyri ?

I'm asking because the default is very out of date, then I'm not just talking about variation changes.

I have also another question,

Will Iceland X include the glider airports, Sandskeid (BISS), Melgerdismelar (BIMM) and the private glider and motor airfield Geitamelur ?

Below are two picture of the private airfield, Geitamelur, as you can see, very very large runways, the longest almost 3 km grass runway

and it would be fun to have it included in the new scenery as it was also in FS iceland 2004 or Iceland airports for fs2004..

The larger runways are about 40 m wide and smaller ones (taxi) 25m approx.

Location: 63°49'41.58"N

20°10'56.69"W

The video looks really good, so what's there to be done untill release?

And might we see a few images of the "Island" from an high altitude as FL370 for example? I would like to know if it looks as great from high above as from the close groundview in the video.

And are there already some images of the Keflavik Airport if the project has already been started?

[horst18519 231]

As requested a few more screenshots, some taken at high altitude. Personally I prefer to experience Iceland from altitudes below 1000f AGL but I would say it looks rather ok from FL 370.

Some impressions from Akureyri (famous DC-3), Isafjordur (note the high-tech approach light system) and Reykjavik (I just love that church).

[Emi 5162]

woooooooooow, the 10th and the last picture look so amazing

I'll buy it!!!!!

By the way: which programm is used for that sunset colours? they look sooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo amazing..................:wub:

Looking really good

[horst18519 231]

If I'm not mistaken that is default, I normally don't use addons apart from the one I'm developing (to avoid issues).

[fsisland 5]

The "approach light system" at Isafjordur looks great

I was just looking at the news on icelandic news website

and saw this , http://mbl.is/mm/frettir/togt/frett.html?nid=1526793 , They are just telling that Aerosoft is developing

new scenery package for Iceland , Hope you like

[Emi 5162]

Hey,

how long is it untill release? At the FS-Weekend Mathijs told me that he thinks that it would take 3 more weeks since then. 2 are over, so can you tell me if you're still on shedule please?

And another thing which is in my interest: Are you developing different textures for summer and winter, or can we only change the treetextures (of the few trees which are there )?

What´s about the Frames ?
