Not yet. The guys that are modeling Iowa City for me have asked that
I wait till their done before making the "package" of files publically
available.

I'll post here when it's ready for download.


They are doing the whole city? Cool.

Another great idea. We already play Unicom in the lobby, and the
scanner is about 4 feet from my computer, which is on all the time,
connected via DSL line to the internet.

I'll check that out, too. Thanks!


Archives at LiveATC.net are up to 45 days now, so if for no other reason you
should offer the feed so that you will have the ability to listen to your
Unicom calls up to a month and a half after making them.

A cool one is Seeley Lake, Montana. They have a short school bus as one
of their courtesy cars. Complete with the school bus door with that
long arm to open it. It's painted white but still pretty cool.

SOP across most of the country.


I've seen plenty of keys for courtesy cars and lock boxes for gas money but
this was the only time I saw that much cash just lying there in an open box
on the counter. Most of my flying has been east of the Mississippi though -
maybe it's more common out west.



We often leave our courtesy van at the airport, for pilots to drive
over to the inn, or to get a bite to eat.

People outside the pilot community find that amazing. We find it
everywhere we go.

One thing everyone seems to miss about this...you are leaving a ~80 amu aircraft so you can run around town in a ~10 amu
ground transport machine. Seems to make sense that it would be available...

Nah, just major landmarks.

Which is good, since it already runs pretty jerky, just with the few
buildings they've modeled thus far. Those add-ons are big files.
