From the Forum of FTX, and the post by John Venema (CEO)
"We decided to not do larger international airports anymore, a while back. They take far too long to make, cost us far too much, and are just not fun to make for the developers anymore. We also won't dumb them down and compromise on our design and authentic detail, that's just not what we do.
So no KSEA or KPDX, and I doubt other developers will tackle them either given the baseline performance of those two cities.
I should have updated the roadmap page sooner, sorry about that.
Perhaps poll FlyTampa to port their FS9 KSEA using a low-geometry approach? We still plan to revamp downtown Seattle with new building models, and that is a necessary precursor to any large airports going into the area. "
This is very sad news indeed. I am happy for them that they feel FTX can survive with just building cities, and general aviation airfields. At least for some of us long haulers we got YBBN and YMML from them. It is really to bad we never got YSSY from them. Good luck FTX.
And yes, this does mean that they are not going to be making Portland International Airport
