runway usage when winds are calm

Featured Replies

Is there any way to adjust what runways are being used when the wind is calm? For example, LAX uses the 25s and 24s for the most part, and when winds are calm, the ATC wants to open up what I think is the closest runway to the north heading (runway 6 and 7)Is there any way to change this?And what is the standard runway being opened by the ATC when winds are calm, is it closest to north heading?Thanks

There's always a "direction" in the sim even if the velocity is zero, if you clear all weather with weather theme "clear skies" the wind will always be from due north +/- magnetic variation.You can always go into advanced weather and change the direction of the wind without adding any velocity if you'd prefer ATC direct you to a specific runway.Jim
