For me VVTS looks perfect (standard and TerraGit), the same layout as in latest Xplane. Just need more buildings and other objects (let it to me), maybe because is a big airport, need signs (taxis,...) too,but i dont know how to do it, its possible to add them manually as 3d objects but i think its doable through code.

That can be done in WED.

Sorry, VVTS signs are already there. But i don't know if at VYMD are in your new layout?

Well if I can get a custom scenery pack when it's finished it'd be awesome.
And guys don't hesitate to coordinate with me at VVTS if you are interested. ;)

Be aware that the distances in SE Asia may look smaller than they are. If all atc's stay around the Gulf of Thailand, we are already talking 500+ miles distances. So i think it would be wise not to choose airports more north than that.

Kind regards, Vincent

WSSS (Singapore Changi) - Raven
...
VYMD (Mandalay) - jwocky


That's 1300nm as the crow flies, for an example.

England was ~300nm, Japan was ~600nm iirc.

Well I can't understand why we get always bigger places in Spring than in Fall:
2015 Brazil (+Argentina) vs Austria + Switzerland
2016 Japan vs UK + Ireland
2017 SEAsia vs Italy

I know but at least let's pick some smaller places for Spring, IMHO this one is really big, e.g. between VVTS and Bangkok there are 470 NM IIRC and it's only an example. Ain't it too much? If someone would like to make more than 1 complete ATC flight it'd take a lot of time.
Let me know if I'm wrong cause I may tell non-sense things today because I'm ill.
