New Canopies for C-17 Globemaster in Abu Dhabi

Post by asdro »

Hello,

In Abu Dhabi OMAA six new canopies were installed on the military part of the airport.

Normally on these parking positions the C-17 park there.


As the OMAA scenery of simbreeze doesnt have these canopies i would like to ask if somebody wants to build them.

I only found the canopies with google maps.
I'll try to find more images and may be videos on youtube.

Edit:

I found a video where you can see more details at 05:15.

I am sure there are existing structures within the MAIW objects which with as increase in size would meet the requirements.

It would be nice if a developer could try to make these canopies.

As i own the simbreeze scenery for FS9 i could betatest it.

You see the big issue here is that the scenery you are talking about is payware.

Would you would need is a developer that has bought the scenery and wants to add to it. The chances are that if a developer had that scenery and was so inclined he would already have created it and therefore responded to you.

The other option is that there is a developer that still has FS9 that is willing to buy the scenery to create the addon. Realistically this is not going to happen.

I am still basically an FS9 user but FS9 has a limited lifetime. I haven't bought anything for FS9 for years because of this.

So realistically the only way you are going to get the mods is if you make them yourself.

I thought that may be one of the developers, who still uses FS9 might own the OMAA scenery, too. So that is the reason why I have asked.
At least I shared the info with you about the new Canopies.
