April 2, 200917 yr I have just tried to add a new rwy at Abu Dhabi Airport. I'm 'trying' to use FSFlatten. However, after producing the .bgl and placing it in Addon Scenery, I visited the airport and found all the buildings about 200' in the air, plus the sea was lapping the end of Rwy 13!This problem may have been caused by 'marking' the airport area with Slew mode still active.Any help would be very welcome.Ken

April 2, 200917 yr Hi David,You and I have added this runway at Abu Dhabi before....last July :). But since then I've had a complete wipeout of Fs9, followed by a Reformat. So I'm starting again from scratch.I'll try again using metric as you suggest, thank you for your help,Ken
April 3, 200917 yr Hello David,Well, in the end I had to resort to Plan B. That is to say Tips and Tricks, "Afcad - Some Tips and Tricks" :( Only problem now is the new Rwy designation does not show up in the Fs9 Menu?Best regards,Ken
April 4, 200917 yr Hi Scott s,No, I'm a rank amateur at this, thought the basic rwy was enough to get started.......?Back to the drawing board.Thank you for your help.Best regards,Ken

April 4, 200917 yr Did you hear that the Flintstones film had been banned in Dubai because they didn't understand it, but Abu Dhabi do.John
