@barry-0 There have been 2 updates since release, so for the moment it looks like they are patching it regulatory. The release of SU12 has probably given them more things to sort out too.

@derek I must have missed some. I am happy with what it does. I am not fussed about the schedules being accurate. I have made my own, with lots of different traffic densities. They can be found here https://flightsim.to/profile/Killamarshian/uploads . I would like more airports, aircraft and GA traffic but then who wouldn't?

Not sure about more airports - you'd need a scenery developer for that
On a serious note, I guess you mean scheduled flights to different airports, but we use a full database of real flights so we can can only go by what that provides. If a flight is listed but has no suitable aircraft then that 'airport' won't be included, of course.
More aircraft/liveries are planned as we've always said and a GA pack will be offered at some point in the near future. We are definitely in it for the long haul (pun intended). -

Other JustFlight/JustTrains products I have had have been very well supported.

We are definitely in it for the long haul (pun intended).@derek There are some large airports that are not served by FS-Traffic, VHHX for instance. I understand that you cannot create schedules as the airport is now defunct, the same with Chicago-Meigs, but people have come to me asking for bespoke schedules. I cannot create them as the approaches and other support files in FS-Traffic are missing.
Overall, this product is exactly what I expected. -

@barry-0 what would improve your enjoyment?
I know your question about what should be improved was for Barry O., but would like to add something to this thread and hope it's ok:
For me at least, a favourite activity in the sim is some urban exploring over the vast photogrammetry areas or between different smaller cities with GA-aircraft. From one GA-airport to a large metropolitan airport and further to some smaler regional airports and perhaps back to a ga-field. Several touch-and-go's or landings at different airports that are quite close to each other. I belive most GA-pilots and students fly like this in real-life as well. Currently FSTraffic seems to be tailored towards people mostly flying from a to b in a more regulated fashion... not ga-flying between the different airports in LA as an example. Even if you don't land at the large airports, the GA or executive surrounding airports are heavily affected by traffic moving to and from the large hubs. I would love to see all this traffic.

GA traffic is something we are looking into. Its essentially random nature, to which you allude, means it needs to work in a different way to scheduled airline flights. We have managed this in previous incarnations of Traffic so hopefully we can do it again.

@derek Please consider adding Cargo planes for next update, most likely, you don't need to develop new 3d models for them, just base windowless paintkits and liveries.
An ETA on new base models would also be nice.

Cargo is on the list to look at after GA.
ETA - don't usually give those for obvious reasons but not too far away.

@derek can you advise what GA models are in the works?

Not at the moment. When we have some firm news/lists/specs etc we will make a formal announcement.
