AFCAD2 FOR THE DEFAULT 2004 SCENERY
--------------------------------------
JAN 2004 BY PHIL RODRIGUEZ
WELL, IF YOU HADN'T ALREADY NOTICED THE MS DESIGN TEAM DIDN'T SPEND MUCH TIME ON THE
ORLANDO INTERNATIONAL AIRPORT. THE TERMINAL BUILDINGS ARE ODDLY PLACED ON THE APRONS MAKING
FOR NEW GATE ASSIGNMENTS ON THE "INNER" SIDES OF THE AIRSIDE TERMINALS AND WAY FOR AI
AIRCARFT TO GET TO THEM ALMOST IMPOSSIBLE. I FINALLY GOT AROUND THIS BY ACTUALY EXTENDING
BLANK TAXIWAYS OUT AROUND THE EDGES OF THE APRONS. THIS GAVE ENOUGH SPACE PLACE REALISTIC
GATE ASSIGNMENTS AND BE ABLE TO TAXI TO THEM.
-GATE ASSIGNMETN NEWS IN MCO-
ALL GATES AND TERMINALS HAVE ACCURATE AIRLINE AND GATE NUMBER INFO AS WHATS PLANNED FOR
MARCH 2004 WHEN SOME AIRLINES MAKE A FEW MOVES. SOME AIRLINES HERE SHARE
GATES ON A LIMITED BASIS SUCH AS FRONTIER/US AIR - UNITED/AIR CANADA ETC - I'VE SET ALL
THESE UP ACCORDINGLY. I'VE BEEN WORKING AT MCO FOR 5 YEARS NOW SO EVERYTHING IS ON THE UP
AND UP. THE ONLY THIGNS YOU MIGHT FIND DIFFERENT ARE SPIRITS NEW GATE ASSINGMENTS. SPIRIT
AIRLINES IS MOVING TO AIRSIDE THREE NEXT TO NORTHWEST. THEY WILL BE USING GATES 30 32 AND
SHARING GATE #34 WITH NORTHWEST. JETBLUE AND AIRTRAN WILL BE TAKING OVER 110 AND 111. DELTA
WHICH AFTER REORGANIZING DELTA EXPRESS BACK INTO MAINLINE HAS DISCONTINUED USING THE 90'S
CONCOURSE. RUMORS ARE ABOUND THAT WITH UNITED LEAVING THE LATIN AMERICA MARKET THIS SPRING
DELTA WILL AGAIN TRY TO MAKE ORLANDO THEIR LATIN AMERICA HUB...TIME WILL TELL I GUESS...
