Looks good, though why can't they just wait until T5 opens, lengthy update processes expected! Oh and the 'snapper' for that thread needs to realise that BA took the Boeing 737 out of LHR a long time ago
Despite the name I am a Boeing man through and through!

Quoting David L (Reply 4): They don't use the 737s for GLA/EDI-LHR anymore?
There hasn't been a BA 737 near LHR for years!
Also a bmibaby 737 at T4 looks a bit odd. Although IIRC one of them did divert into LHR not too long ago.
I wonder how much of the new 27R holding area adjustments they've got in this, it's still going on at the moment and will look a little different when it's complete, would be a shame not to have it.

Once you have tasted flight, you will walk the earth with your eyes turned forever skyward

Well, there's a thing. Until a couple of years ago, I used to fly that route regularly and it was "a mix of 737s and A320s". I hadn't noticed the 737s disappearing.

They're all down at LGW now, the -400's have a future with the company and are being fitted with new lighting systems and deep cleaned. The leased -300/-500's are being cut from the fleet in favour of A319's.

Can't wait for its release which is said to be in the next few weeks!
The best part of it will be: once released and if you have enough credits, you can even use AES with the scenery. Unfortunately that won't be happening with UK2000 sceneries, Gary himself said so. But the Simwings scenery should eventually become compatible with AES.

I have the UK2000 LHR scenery as well, and may get the Xtreme version if it will be free like LGW, but looking at the Simwings scenery, those ground textures are much improved over the UK2000 scenery. I wonder though, why was that never gotten right in the UK2000 LHR scenery?
Anyway, I hope it will come out by Christmas, so I can also get myself more AES credits and maybe a GAP bundle from the old sceneries (or maybe buy GAP 2 HAJ).
