Still No Water Towers!

I have yet to find a water tower in the new 2024 build. This was one of the VFR navigation aids I was looking forwards to. I’m very found of water towers as I got lost lost on my very first solo cross country flight and had to use a water tower to identify were I was. My instructor wanted me to do the flight all based on pilotage. Shish that was nerve racking. That was 30 years ago before GPS was big.

Has anyone else found any water towers?

We currently don’t have water towers in the sim outside of photogrammetry areas. I can’t tell if they will be added, but if it was solely my decision, they would be one of top priorities.

Well I vote you get put in total charge of those decisions. Your add on for fs2020 was a total game changer for vfr. It’s a shame that it was something that a third party had to come up with a solution for when it it should of been part of the release. I didn’t know your work was involved in 2024. Congratulations you deserve the recognition.

Tough job. There are so many different types.

There are a massive number of unique shaped water towers – so adding them is no small task.
