You know what would be really cool to add in FSPX?

Hey, I know Dan is very busy getting the Steam Version rolling but I had a thought for the future.

What if you could access the setting in the destination file like ( KSLC ) and add a sound file for that location so once you land you would hear "Welcome to Salt Lake City
where the local time is " ----" ? You could add this code so whenever you put a destination in, it will create an announcement where you land based on the simulator's airport call sign and local time. I read that you were
getting actors for more sound bites. Just a thought, I would like to know what others think about this idea,
Thanks ,
Darrin

Sounds like a great idea!

Nice idea but there is more than 24510 airport in FsX, even 5% would make a LOT of sounds and voice engine generator is somewhat complicated for just
an announcement it would also sound different than the stewardess's voice.

You are right Dan but how about main international airports? I know it is a lot of work. I did notice some sound files in the More Download section that cover
certain areas. It could be something you start out small and slowly work in over time. I know that setting up the destination files code would be workable. It is the
recording of sound bites that would really ... well you know bite!
