Hello there!
Sorry if you already saw my similar topic on other forums.
I create this topic to invite you on new FS related site - http://fsairport.net This is airports database.
Let's imagine you are living near by Half Moon Bay airport, California. Is two simple ways to find the airport on the site, first one is to start enter it's name on front page then select from autocomplite list. Second (for sure you know its FSX ID) is go to http://fsairport.net/KHAF - and.. wow! What you'll see there:
- Small description about airport (name, country, city, runways etc...).
- Small map with general geo appoint (to make sure it's in California in deed).
- Large aerial photo (to find your car on airport parking).
- Airport photos, if any and possibility to upload them! (you are found of aircraft spotting, right ? So you can make people in rest of the World know how your home-airport looks like from the ground or from the airplane).
- Airport diagram, if any and possibility to upload them. (Your uncle Dag is working there instructor, maybe he have some diagrams to share ?).
- Wikipedia article link, and, right, possibility to attach it.
- List of airports near by.
And now most interesting thing:
For example your neighbor Jim (Flight Sim fan too) did Half Moon Bay airport for FSX, upload it to avsim.com library, but not great downloads 'cause not many people know about it. You can help him! Creating project profile on http://fsairport.net it's absolutely free and not takes you more then 5 minutes (including registration). So what will Jim got with this "profile" ?
- Short and "forever" web address in format: fsairport.net/project_XX
- Page will be voteble, twittereble and facebook-likeble
- Project will be promoted on catalog home page as eternal point on map and as link in "last add projects".
- Any catalog user (including Jim himself) could add information to his project profile! (Screenshots, videos, reviews, comment, and publishers) - so if sim guys would like his work it will be self-promotable!
- If Jim done not only KHAF project, it's not problem to make page fsairport.net/developers/Jim with whole list of Jim's projects, just drop us a line.
We are thinking about other interesting features, like "project subscribe" when users would got notification about new information about projects they like/subscribe. Anyway we are open for any critics and help (by the way you'll help us a lot if make more sim fans know about the service)
Every of 25000 of MS FSX airport is in the site database!
Thanks for your attention! Have fun!
Andrey
P.S.
I open list of "interesting airports" on the front page, so if you'll find something to share please add, even no registration needed. For "interesting airports" comments are open.
P.P.S
Ahh, one more - similar site about FS aircraft add-ons is already working here: http://fsaircraft.net Users base is the same, so you need not to login twice.
