Aeroports de Montreal (ADM) and I-Parks-Oger International signed a memorandum of understanding to develop an "indoor recreational multiplex" at Mirabel covering more than 100,000 square meters. AeroDream, or Reveport in French, will be a "one-of-a-kind attraction in North America," targeting local visitors as well as tourists and business travelers.

Then again, I guess that's like asking "Can't we all just get along?"

Turning a parking lot into a fake airfield land in a theme park gets you no where. Montreal's airport will be turned into a theme park, which is an obvious turning of the tables. No one wants to see an airport as a theme park attraction. They want to see a fun theme park. Administrator: Why did you delete my Post 4 without deleting Posts #2,3, and 6?

As for your comment regarding "No one wants to see an airport as a theme park attraction. They want to see a fun theme park". Obviously you have never been to an airfield and watch either an airshow or just go there to see how many people go to just admire them. Here in southern California all you have to do is drive out towards Moreno Valley/Peris area and visit the "March Airfield" It is an empty navy airfield with a few runways and a collection of metal air hangers. Afew planes sit on what is a dessert landscape. The parking lot to this area is always full of cars. Wether it be a weekend or even on some weekdays. People spend hours just walking around and looking at old hangers and a handful of planes. Wether you like it is something else but you are one of millions that the anaheim resort.

They do want to see the airplanes and airshow, which are in short supply in Condor Flats. I am sure there are many people who are interested in airplanes, but I'm not sure Condor Flats is the best way of presenting that. If we want to make the hangars the attractions, how about garages, bridges, and roads? hmmm. Are you sure DCA is a great theme park?

Originally Posted By woody >>Are sure a parking lot is exciting. >>If so, i dont think you should be telling anyone what a good theme park is or isnt!! A good theme park isn't DCA. DCA is a theme park that brings back nostalgic remembrances of the great old Disneyland parking lot. So you tell me. Is DCA better than the parking lot? I would think so, but not by much.
Originally Posted By tahoebob54 Woody, when people talk about the parking lot being better than DCA, think of sarcastically
Originally Posted By woody Yes, I thinking sarcastically as well. It is sarcastic to think the parking lot is better than DCA. It is serious to think DCA is slightly better than the former Disneyland parking lot.
Originally Posted By bean "In this case, some people found the old Disneyland parking lot to be more exciting." Obviously if you find a parking lot more exciting than a theme park with some very good attraction you must be a very lonely and boring person to have anykind of fun with.

You know nothing about me so WHY the hostility? You seem to defend DCA like its a person. It is nothing of the sort. It's just a theme park as part of Disneyland Resort. Get it? It's the theme park that doesn't even get advertised anymore. DCA is slightly better than the old parking lot. The minimalist theming is so carnival parking lot style. Love it or hate it. There's no in-between.

Dont presume to know everything or what everyone else is thinking. They still have parking lots all over the resort that you can have plenty of enjoyable hours in. The rest of us can enjoy Soarin, screamin, ToT, Grizzly, Monsters, Alladin, Animation, BPB, ITTBAB and DEP. Please give us a pictorial update of your next parking lot adventure. Woody, seriouasly dude, what gives? We know ya hate the park, and that is totally cool. nobody cares if you hate the park. why do you keep saying the same things over and over and over again, every time you post, on every thread and under every topic. We understand you think DCA sucks, you have said it sucks a million times, you have ben saying it isnt much better than the parking lot for as long as i have seen you on this site. What gives? do you understand that this has become like that scen from dumb and dumber where Jim Carrey says," ya want to here the most annoying sound in the world?" If you could just post sometomes without the same old tired cliches that have become the most annoying sound in the world, you would be so much more enjouable to read. Give out criticism, talk about what could be done in the park to improve whatever, but gosh almighty, one more DCA sucks or the parking lot is better, or they need to make another exit, and we are all going to explode from annoyance. heck woody, i have even seen numerous DCA bashers get annoyed with you on here and on other sites. honestly, why do you get off on that?
Originally Posted By woody You spent a lot of words saying you don't like to see my posts. Do you get off on it? BTW, I do offer constructive criticisms too. I do think they botched the Hollywood Studios makeover. There is no studios. If they wanted to do a better job, they could have added a studios in the new Hollywood Studios section in DCA. The Monsters ride does not appear to be a studios ride. It is just a movie ride with no connection with the Hollywood Studios theme. To fix it, they should add a narrative explaining the studios connection. Do you want more constructive criticism?
