Replace old planes at Hampden Field with something newer

[tulip maple]

I get the nostalgia but theyre just rectangles and squares at this point

[indigo ledge]

I didn’t think it would go under remodel airport, it’s just the planes

Should I delete it?

Replace old planes at Hampden Field with something newer

[nocturne niche]

Why?

Just why remove it

It shows the history of Aero

[green lichen]

these are gonna stay

[tulip maple]

ah ok

thanks

[versed wagon]

What if they’re moved to like

Yoeshaw

That’s a museum airfield after all

Or maybe have a museum on Hampten

[lavish copper]

Tbf i think hampden could use a remodel

After all its where everyone started their aero journey

[fresh hamlet]

i think you should move them

to a small airfield somewhere in avalon

or to a small island with an unmarked airfield somewhere in oconia

because they kinda give bad impression of the game

[tulip maple]

Yea that’s along the lines of what I was thinking

[fresh hamlet]

its the 2nd thing new players see

after their spectrum beaver ss

[tulip maple]

Yea

[fresh hamlet]

museum is a good idea

but maybe not at hampden

i think oconee is a good place for museum

[rapid girder]

these deserve to stay

[green lichen]

afaik hampden Isn’t to be touched

plus the bit of history is nice at the start

[zealous hawk]

what if the new players come and think "wow, these plane models are really bad"

[green lichen]

[zealous hawk]

then again, seeing the older models there is kinda cool for old players

idk

i haven't really been to hampden tbh

[indigo ledge]

I've been to Hampden like 3 times including the tutorial

[keen tundra]

Could the airport structures and runway be updated atleast?

[green lichen]

as I said from what I know hampden isn’t to be touched

[keen tundra]

I never noticed it when I was playing the game first time

[tender creek]

Yeah Hampden does really need a remodel, the aircraft models already there can be moved to a museum like area. The only reason why it wouldn't happen is just nostalgia, but that's a problem when this airport is literally the first airport where newcomers start their journey.

[keen tundra]

noh

It will always stay at hampden

[tender creek]

Or at least a museum near the airfield where these models can still be preserved while the airport can be remodelled into something more better and newer, perfect for newcomers.

As I've stated the only reason why Hampden is still like this (other than developer's focus on other regions) is just nostalgia, (let me remind you that the airport model is turning 4 in 2 months).

[peak cairn]

I see both sides of the argument and ngl both make good points

this sums up to nostalgia and history vs giving new players a good impression

[mint heath]

i dont even remember being here ngl

[rapid girder]

Erm wouldn't they be flying in newer models that aren't blocks

[full otter]

Hampden shall not be touched. Such changes will only rid Aeronautica of a historical artifact.

[foggy wren]

Honestly, if they're gonna change Hampden I'd rather it got moved and something new takes its place. There's a lot of history in aero and prior games for hampden

[verbal sundial]

Agreed

Don't remove the old models but move it somewhere else

First impressions are important and Hampden and Oconee in particular should reflect the latest state of the game

[keen tundra]

hmmmmm, Clarence remodel

Ocoknee and Hamptyden remdel
