March 17, 201016 yr Hello,Has anyone of you guys experianced flying with the add-on, Live Traffic from Airnav systems? Yes, I use it, No complaints so far. I had mytraffic 2010 installed first. i had to delete the aircraft live traffic installed or else i would have had the duplicate aircraft warning when i started FSX. matt

I guess that the ATC-chatter is not coming with this product? Artur Scholl
March 17, 201016 yr Thanx ...Ehm, one more question ... I guess that the ATC-chatter is not coming with this product?not quite sure what you mean? The default fsx atc does talk to the ai aircraft. If you mean seperate atc recordings like radar contact plays? no there are not any atc that come with live traffic. Did a flight from my home airport of toledo to detroit in the default baron today. while no product is perfect, i thought live traffic did a pretty good job.

I have to try it I guess :) Artur Scholl

I have to try it I guess :)the fsx atc handles the live traffic the same as it does any other ai traffic. before you start fsx you click on the live traffic program and it down loads a bgl file from airnav. from what i understand the file is updated every 90 seconds or so, based on the information that airnav has in its system. the fsx atc does clear the ai aircraft for landing and decent. i use it in conjunction with mytraffic2010. there is a setting you can check in mytraffic2010 that basically makes room for the live traffic. this way i still have the military traffic that comes with mytraffic2010. matt

Appriciate the help. But ou don't need mytraffic2010 for live traffic to work? that is just if you want millitary traffic flying around etc?Thanx Artur Scholl

March 19, 201016 yr Author correct you do not need mytraffic2010 for live traffic to work.mattActually it doesn't update the traffic bgl file automatically. You need to update the bgl file yourself. I emailed the Airnavsystems wit this verdict:Thanks for your email.1. Will it mess up the AFCAD files used in airports from ie Aerosoft etc?No, you can set up so Aerosoft is used first.2. Is the file beeing updated constantly or do I have to update that *bgl myself? Meaning if I download scheduels from the server will it update that bgl file for ai-traffic or will the planes come dowen after 4h of flying and no more flights are then processed?You need to update it yourself.3. I will buy European edition. Are flights from ie Africa or Asia or any other continents showing up as well in that edition? Are they entering an air space to finally land on ie Frankfurt?Yes they should do. Artur Scholl
March 27, 201016 yr Commercial Member Yea Airnav live looks a little more appealing since they added europe. I might give it a 6 month shot in the summer when I start vacation. Regards, Dave Opper HiFi Support Manager
March 27, 201016 yr Their European coverage is a joke. The difference between what they display and what the traffic boards on the airports show (using the internet) is 95%. Even their US coverage is more than 50% off. Apart from that, if your traffic sliders are below 70%, NOTHING, absolutely nothing is displayed in Europe.What they are selling is a joke. Customer support is top notch before sales, afterwards you wait more than a week for an answer with zero meaning.
