Notice of deadline for submitting Airport Layouts

[garrettm30]

I though it might be beneficial to repeat Ben Supnik's posting that the cutoff for submitting airport layouts for X-Plane 10 is October 10.

For those who don't know, airports can be submitted at any time to be included with the next incremental update. Airport boundaries, however, are updated at each major release. You use airport boundaries so that when the scenery mesh for each major release is processed, the boundaries will be taken into account for elevation and land class purposes. Your next opportunity after this is not expected to come until X-Plane 11 will be released.

I mention it here only for increased exposure of the announcement. You can see Ben's original announcement here:

I know I'm hurrying to finish my local airport by that time. I'm glad I happened to start the project this past month rather than next month. It's about the perfect time.

I'm new at this, so I welcome folks more experienced to clarify what this means if necessary.

Good to know. I'll definitely submit some airports that should've been placed or updated..

Oh rats! I just realized I missed this myself! Well, I hope others at least took advantage of the notice.

I would recommend sending it in any case - there may still be an opportunity for them to incorporate it.
