Hi All. I have just reinstalled FS9 & added the scenery that I always use and one airport CYYZ and that's all so far. When I have to reinstall FS9 I have a list of everything needed. I always use my install list and it always works perfectly for me. Except this time I wanted to start a flight from the runway just to save time used in taxing the aircraft usually is sits close to the center line when I do this, but this time it's sitting close to the left side of the runway. I have not installed any afcad's at all and all of the scenery textures and mesh are payware. ( FSGenisis, UT, GE Pro and HDE just the sky part). I don't know where to start looking for the solution so I hope someone can help please. Thanks in advance...............JohnPS: The airport is the same one I always use.

Thanks for your reply JoeThe Airport is Toronto International File name CYYZ Created by: Dennis Di Franco Runway 33R......John

JohnI downloaded the file from Flightsim.com (file is missing here) and installed it.Started a flight at 33R in the C172. I was a little right of center, left main was on the center, so I think the scenery is OK.Then I de-activated the addon and started a flight at the default airport, 33R and saved it.Then I re-activated the addon scenery and started my saved flight. C172 was sitting on the left edge of the runway.Did you by chance start your flight from a saved flight also?Hope this helps.regards,JoePS. Congrats to Canada on the Olympics. good job. Even though I was disappointed at the hockey finals, it was a great game.

Yes I did Joe and my experience was the same as yours. I am hoping somebody will have an answer to the problem sometime or maybe I should just start all my flights from a gate or parking ramp lol. Yes the Olympics went off really well and Canada's goal was to win more gold than everybody else and Canada made it lol. The hole country save for a few hot heads was behind our athletes this time (smile) Have a good one Joe and Thanks Again........JohnPS: Sometimes I really wish we had a chat room at Avsim

The Last post before yours was me talking to myself lol. The Important thing is that the problem is fixed not how I did it lol......John

He doesn't need to even dump the FS9.cfg file, just delete the Home.flt file from the proper folder and resaving the flight in the proper spot will take care of that.
Thanks WhiteKnight.........................John
