June 23, 200322 yr Great post recently regarding using AFCAD to "close" / "open" runways to force ATC to use alternative runways. My follow-up question, with intersecting runways - most at regional or smaller fields, does FS ATC recognize traffic on "all" runways, to avoid collisions at the "cross-roads"... ? Only have made a few flights after setting AFCAD the way I want - but I have not heard Tower or Ground advise of crossing traffic - or hold for traffic. Guess that means ATC doesn't recognize the potential conflict......Ron
June 23, 200322 yr No, it doesn't. It will hold ground traffic for a runway that has been cleared for takeoff or landing, but not between runways (not in the FS2002 AI logic).Hope this helps,--Tom GibsonCal Classic Propliner Page: http://www.calclassic.comFreeflight Design Shop: http://www.freeflightdesign.comDrop by! ___x_x_(")_x_x___ Tom Gibson CalClassic Propliner Page
June 23, 200322 yr Thx Tom,So, I guess I'll add a standard takeoff procedure: right hand on throttles, toes ready on brakes - just in case I enter a demolition derby.......Ron
