Re: It's time for a new default airport

That, and the airport no longer exists in real life. It just does not sound like a good idea at all to me.

Currently, Kai Tak is unusable by serious simmers due to the mismatch in FG "VHXX" vs the rest of the sim world "VHHX"...

So I do not think that is appropriate at this time.

I say VHXX/VHHX its is for 2028 release cycle due to the 30th anevesery
of closer of Kai Tak.

But there is also a need for good tutorial/documentation and scenery
placement tools that can run local on the user pc.
