February 5, 201016 yr I just installed custom scenery for Rostov-on-Don airport (URRR) in Russia. After installation I go to the airport and all my AI are floating above the ground. I was going to us the program Jabbl to change the AP file so my AI is not floating anymore. But when I went to look for the correct APxxxxx.bgl I couldn't find it. I thought I could use AFCAD to find it but URRR does not have a stock AFCAD. Does anyone know what APxxxxx.bgl file is for URRR? If I can't find the correct AP file is there another way to correct the floating AI?

February 5, 201016 yr Author Thanks. I wonder why it does not show the default URRR AFCAD for me? On my AFCAD it just shows the modified AFCAD.
February 5, 201016 yr Author Ok I figured out why the default URRR AFCAD was not showing up. I have another Russian scenery (the scenery is URKK Krasnodar) and in the read me file for that scenery it says to replace the AP958150.bgl and replace it with the new one in the URKK download.I put back the original AP958150.bgl and my AI at URRR is now fine and the default AFCAD shows up in the AFCAD. I guess I will save the new AP958150.bgl and only install it when I fly to/from URKK.
