I have I believe the latest FSX EGBB version from Paul V1.2 with corrected DME.I guess the Turn On/Off AI option is the best solution at the present time, I must ensure that turning it Off becomes part of the Approach Checklist.Thanks for this advise.I am working through many options with this new install of FSX and although there is very much less in the Add-on realm, there are some goodies.Tony Meredith is known here, but Alf Denham has uploaded 15 zip files to date, which include 48 FSX airfields. These airfields have been expanded using default textures and although Alf admits he has no knowledge of these individual airfields and has no unique textures, there is no comparison to the default MS offerings. I have made an AIO folder to contain these which works extremely well.They would form the basis of a fine VFR Tour... so I list them here: Aberporth Andrewsfield Bagby Barra BelleVue Bembridge Bodmin Brimpton Caernarfon Clacton Conington Cosford Deanland Dunkeswell Dunsfold Duxford Eaglescott EarlsColne Eggesford Elmsett Elstree Enstone Eshott Fenland Goodwood Haverfordwest Lashenden Lerwick Lydd Maypole Netherthorpe North Weald Old Warden Old Buckenham Perranporth Popham Seething Sheffield Sherburn Shobdon Sturgate Sutton Bank Swansea Sywell Truro Upfield Farm Welshpool WickenbyAre there recent figures as to the numbers of JHB members who use FS9 and FSX?I have purchased FSC along with WideServer/FSUipc, but as yet have only one way data (XP -> Vista, Vista wont see XP grrr) but I'm working on it.Thanks and best wishes Kev T At 18:29 4/10/2009, you wrote:You hit the nail on the head there.I've had an aircraft go around because he said there was an aircraft on the runway. It turned out to be something generated on his system but I couldn'tget through to him that neither I or other aircraft on IVAO could possibly see it. He wasn't able to understand why I gave him landing clearance with an aircraft already on the runway and suggested there was something wrong with my connection because I hadn't spotted it. <g> bones bones@xxxxxxx -----Original Message----- From: jhb_airlines-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:jhb_airlines-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of Gerry Winskill Sent: 10 April 2009 17:46 To: jhb_airlines@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: [jhb_airlines] Re Phil's EGBB Hi Kevin, I'm not sure which version of Phil's Birmingham scenery you are using. If it's FSX, then the AI can still be kept in operation, when on line. In FSX, and the most recent version of IVAP, AI is automatically disabled by the IVAO software, when you connect to a server. If you want to see it, then just go to Options Scenery Traffic and put the sliders where you want them. I normally do this, whilst minimising the framerate hit by leaving the GA slider at zero. Like you, I find it disheartening to arrive at a deserted airfield. I know the controllers frown on the principle of running AI but I would challenge anyone to spot I'm using it, as I never let it's presence interfere with the action of my own aircraft. If a confliction seems likey then it takes about 5 seconds to switch off the AI. Sometimes I don't feel the need to use it because I can see decent IVAO traffic volumes at departure and / or arrival fields. If you are indeed running FSX, then FSC will now display all other IVAO traffic, within about 100 miles. Gerry Winskill
