I am attaching the FS9 EGNM afcad view for RWY 32. There is only one taxiway entry with the required holding points and the red circle indicates it is within the limit radius of recognition for AI ready for take-off. I assume that is where the AI was stuck and you were behind it. I also see that these are taxi-backs to get to the starting point at the beginning of the runway within the displaced threshold area. If you are using FS9 get AFCAD 221 from the FS9 utilities library and add a blue node so it just touches on the taxi side of the yellow and red hold short nodes. If you have FSX you can use use ADE9X to do this and acheck out your FSX airport. That is freeware from:http://www.scruffyduck.org.uk/filemanager/navega.php?id=2&PHPSESSID=f831c0148840ef6b5ba8a9f02140d7eeand grab the tutorials and manual. It can be installed for both versions of FS and I recommend it over AFCAD for FS9 when used especially with an add-on scenery. Especially with ADE9X always make a backup of scenery folders you modify.If FS supports it an AI taking off would go to the runway end and turn around then taking off. Is that where the AI was stuck? Was it stuck at the runway entrance to your right?RC4 does not freeze AI aircraft on the ground when you are taxiing for take-off. It only freezes when you are on final for landing.You might wish to load trafficLook.exe which runs in a separate window. See if there is any AI on approach or elsewhere on the runway stalling the AI. You can alt-tab to it as needed from FS and back again. It will show you surrounding AI action. Get it from this section of Pete Dowson's support forum:http://forum.simflight.com/topic/66136-useful-additional-programs-24th-september-2010/To get rid of AI easily (if available in the FSUIPC version limited registration by RC) you can set a hotkey to toggle AI between your desired percent and zero and back to refresh it. If the AI is stuck in front of you you can enable the range limited traffic zap function. Check the key assignments tab in FSUIPC for those additional functions. (I use Ctrl-T for the AI toggle as in "control traffic".) If this assignment is not available to you advance the FS time by one minute to refresh AI.If you have a string of incoming traffic you can use AISmooth version 1.2 from the FSX utility section of AVSIM. It works in both FS versions to increase separation of incoming AI. I recommend turning respond to user aircraft off and you should also turn off traffic comm audio options.If all else fails make a log and send it in as noted in the forum top.Edit: I missed your reference to FSX so AFCAD can not be used. You can use ADE9X as indicated to check the default airport out. It is similar to AFCAD in operation.
