Missed arrivals

Hi all, as first I apologize if such an issue has been discussed before, I've had a brief search in the forum but I haven't found anything exactly matching the problem I'm experiencing, but maybe I haven't searched so finely......Using FS9.I'm slowly replacing my old Justflight Traffic2005 AI with real world fps and AIA/TFS/PAI/AIG etc. aircraft, all downloaded from Avsim and other available sources. At the moment I'm something around the 40% of the replacement.Therefore I'm currently using a sort of 'hybrid' traffic.bgl file, partly made (the part updated by me) of weekly, @, fps, and partly (the Traffic2005 part) by 24hrs, non @, fps. I'm compiling (TTools) my fps to an unique traffic.bgl file. The new fps are all @ and 1% density (so they're not affected by the MSFS traffic density slider). None of them, I guess, does overpass the 100 weekly legs.Yesterday I finally completed the complex Lufthansa network and went to EDDF (by Aerosoft) to look at the result.Well, I realized soon there was a too low arriving traffic, esp. when it comes to newly compiled DLH fps and to heavies.I get a lot of Traffic2005 arrivals (any carrier and aircraft), but very few DLH and heavies arrivals.Sometimes there are DLH arrivals but they're only B733, B735, A320 and A321 aircraft.No DLH heavies arriving, no heavies in general (other carriers) arriving, except the ones coded as Traffic2005 fps.I monitored an heavy (DLH A340-600) and noticed that, at the scheduled arrival time, it's not arriving/landing at all but it's simply popping up at its parking stand, ready for the next departure.I don't mean that the aircraft does appear in the sky and then disappears before or after landing, I mean that it doesn't appear in the sky AT ALL, but DIRECTLY at the parking stand where it should have been parked after its 'arrival'.There're enough free parking stands for heavies and they all are set at the right wingspan (varying from 48 to 54 meters radius).The AFCAD is the Aerosoft's original one with some slight edit by me in order to allow aircraft landing on the 07R/25L to taxi across the 07L/25R without getting freezed at the holding point.The same test at EGLL (Aerosoft) gave me the same impression (not arrivals enough), even if at EGLL some heavy is landing somewhen, but not with the frequency one might expect.I really have no clues about the source of the problem.I've used the very same procedure since the start of my work and had no problems until now.Maybe the overall quantity of the legs in the traffic.bgl file can have some importance? The original amount of legs was something like 360000, now they're over 500000 and they will groove as long as I go ahead with my modifications.Is there someone who can help me?

Nobody answered but...........meanwhile I played it around and I think I solved it........maybe it's not a coincidence I choose 'self' as nickname......... :( Simply changed to 200 the airspeed for ALL the aircraft in the aircraft.txt file and now I get all the incoming flights normally (and timely) approaching and landing, both at EDDF and at other airports.

Is there an advantage in putting all AI flights in one plan? I keep mine in separate files for each airline which I think makes it easier to update or check for errors. I've run around 400+ plans without problems.Regarding the "@" symbal, I ALWAYS remove it from downloaded files and reset each aircraft to proper cruise speed. If ever Im concerned about turn-around times, I just increase the cruise speed by 10-15 knots (tail wind?). I've never ever noticed the "up to 45 minutes late" arrivals reported by some, and feel that in real life flights NEVER arrive to the minute anyway, so I'm sure this method is more realistic. Also, using the 200 + @ method, surely the aircraft get "shifted" somewhere to put them on time?

Hi,I seem to have a same problem with Concorde not showing up for landing. Apparently a speed issue. Any idea how can I get into Aircraft files to alter the speed. FS9 aircraft folders do not seem to open the files. Apparently a trivia for some, but any help would be appreciated.Thanks
