If you have ADE, AFX or FSXP grab my FSX EHAM AFCAD package file from AVSIM and open. I have EHAM set up also with weight restriction and oneway runways. It will give you another look at how I have EHAM working. I crosswind all runways which gives EHAM more options when using weight restriction runways.

Jim, did you try changing to rwy wideth to the main gear of the 747? I notice it still was 150'. Or did that cause problems. Can we change it in the afcad to say 100' so ai will be sent to ground sooner? You did a great job. Hope you could do that for kdfw.

JohnI forgot to do that when I released KATL. You can change/decrease the width to a minimum of 50 ft. (A380).

Those problem models were indeed Aardvark. And I've checked out your package.I see that 06/24 is completely open. Personally, I don't want any departures from 06. Nor landings on 24. Now, with my recent changes, I may get an inevitable landing on the latter, but that is something I can live with.Also, 18L is closed for landings and 36R for departures. Does that work in FSX?I've also chosen not to use 04/22 in my files.

My Afcads are for Cloud9's Amsterdam scenery. I have a package already in the Avsim Library, but I went a little overboard with adding nodes in that one. :DNumerous changes have been made since and I am about to get rid of a good percentage of the nodes. Also, none of the additional changes I talk about in this thread are in them. Give me a couple of days and I'll probably upload an updated package.
