CHANGING DEFAULT RUNWAYS

[topofthestack 0]

When flying into a FSX major default airport, I noted that the ATIS was giving a now closed runway as being in use, and AI traffic was landing on it.. This runway is now being used as a taxiway so could someone please give me a quick guide as to how you can change these features in FSX?Many thanksTOP

Default runways, I think, are based on the longest runways that are reasonably aligned to the wind direction, and perhaps North-most runway when there is no wind. Try adjusting your wind direction (custom weather option) more toward the runway you think should be used. If all else fails, the airport can be adjusted (edited) with an airport editor utility such as ADE.Much can be learned about the editing aspects by reading posts in the scenery design forum - ADE is not hard to learn to use.Loyd
