Airport + Plane in Pattern.jpg
I love YoWindow and I am addicted to the airport. There we see planes completing the final leg of the traffic pattern and landing in front of us. Would it be possible to get an additional view of some of the larger planes a few moments before they land, in the distance, on the downwind leg of the traffic pattern? The same idea might be used on planes taking off as they climb up and away from the airport.

Thanks for creating a superb program.

Oh yeah! This looks cool.
I have added the idea to our list for Airport modifications.
Thanks!
Sorry for the delay :(

Hi Alan and Yowindow team,
Airport is also my favourite because it has the most activity.
Could we have some different colour planes please, such as purple, black, orange etc. Different airlines have different
colour planes.
Alan your idea looks greeaat!!
Just one last question, why are there more red planes that land than blue?
Keep up the good work yowindow, your fantastic.
Kind Regards
Yocat

Just joined the forum here, please excuse the late reply in this thread :oops:

I like the ideas put forth for the Airport scenery thus far, and would like to add the following suggestion if I may:

More aircraft variety types- 737, A340, CRJ, 747 DHC-8 etc. It looks as if the bigger one now flying was modeled from an A330 possibly? Can't tell what the little one is.

Just an idea for the future maybe :beer:

Your airport background really is an amazing idea and it is my favourite. What about adding some short beams of the landing lights when aircraft land and take off during nighttime?
