The SCAG's Logo for 2009 ("The Jet")

The SimCity 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 SimCity 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 SimCity 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 SimCity Aviation Group became well renowned 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 has since tripled with the addition of 4 new aircraft lines, with more to come soon.

The SCAG was formed, developed and showcased most of its projects at Simtropolis. On September 19, 2008 the SimCity Aviation Group entered the SimCity 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 SimCity 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 later this year.
