The SCAG's Current Logo

The Sim City Aviation Group (also known as the SCAG and previously as The Airport Team) is a major group of BATters, Lotters, and Modders who share a common interest in aviation. The Sim City Aviation Group was formed in 2006 as The Airport Team by Pilotdaryl. Since then, the team has initiated many major projects. They work and collaborate at both SimCity 4 Devotion and Simtropolis.

History

The Airport Team was formed in mid-2006 as a result of interest in the Sim City aviation community from Pilotdaryl, before the first RMIP airport packs were released. Some of the original members of the team include Pilotdaryl, Xiziz and The Boy Formerly Known as Evil Muzz and Kack. The then new team was very active with much development in smaller projects.

In March 2007, Pilotdaryl entered the aircraft BATting business with the Athalon 920 business jet, and soon proceeded to BAT the Boeing 777-300ER. Here begins the time when the Sim City Aviation Group became well reknowned for its long-time 777 project.

In May 2008 "The Airport Team" was renamed to the "SimCity Aviation Group", and Pilotdaryl doubled his efforts by introducing the MD-80 project. After some time being almost alone, new members including Fatsuhono and simsmart were introduced to the team. The SCAG's aircraft production will double its effort once again with Fatsuhono's proposed Fokker 100/70 line.

The SCAG was formed, developed and showcased most of its projects at Simtropolis. On September 19, 2008 the Sim City Aviation Group entered the Sim City 4 Devotion Community with a new team room and have since mostly been working from there.

Current projects

The SCAG has been working on many major projects including:

• Boeing 777-300/ER - this project has been going on since 2007 and involves the creation of new aircraft for Sim City 4. Various people have been working to create textures including Pilotdaryl, Fatsuhono, and Voltaire. Many of the airline liveries were created by supla007, who at this point remains inactive. The first batch of 777s will be released this winter.
  • 777 thread at SC4D
• McDonnell Douglas MD-80 - this is a more recent project that was started in June 2008, and also involves aircraft modeling. Pilotdaryl is as of now the only one involved in this project, which is currently at modeling stage and almost finished.
  • MD-80 thread at SC4D
• SCAG Modular Airports - This will be a series of modular and pre-made sets including control towers, hangars, roads and maintenance facilities. Development on the SCAG Modular Airports is on-going.
• Embraer E-Jets - The Embraer E-Jets aircraft series is slated to become Pilotdaryl's next aircraft modeling project. The project is being planned and resources are being gathered, and modeling is expected to begin this winter.
• Fokker 100/70 series - For the first time, a new aircraft modeler has entered the team. With the assistance of Pilotdaryl, Fatsuhono will be leading a new aircraft project beginning this fall.
