I am surprised nobody has said anything about the ranch.
This is GREAT!!!!! I'm a railfan as well as a virtual pilot, so this is golden, this is great.
Could we check more nerd boxes?
Greetings from this ZNY-based pilot (albeit the edges of the airspace!)
Can we go to the extremes with this by using FS2004, outdated scenery AND an outdated pilot client (Squawkbox)?
So here's the deal: we (at ZNY) are working on gathering old routes and such to/from LGA. So we will be able to cross-check old/legacy routes with the preferred ones as far back as 2001 (the year, and May of 2001 to be specific). However, because flights will be going to/from all over the place--not just ZNY--you should be prepared to amend your route appropriately at the request of ATC in the case that they can't accept the CAP VOR (this was replaced by SPI VOR), for instance. Furthermore, you will NEED to communicate with ATC so as long as you can do that without issue, then you'll be fine.
ZNY will be doing its best to keep track of old/legacy routes and coordinating with our ATC friends to make sure everybody has a good time. For instance, if you file a legacy route that mirrors a modern-day equivalent, we would put something like "modern route: XXX YYY ZZZ" in the flight plan remarks and then coordinate that information verbally.
Hope this answers your question!
