Two Things

Hey avsim,I have one problem and one question.1: I have some Emberaer ERJ 190's, but they won't do as I say.I take off down the runway. About halfway, I tilt my joystick up to lift off, but it doesn't. At the end, I finally get off the ground. I turn the autopilot on, but instead of going up, I go down. And, I just keep going on the ground trying to get off, but it doesn't. Something must be wrong. Help is appreciated.2: How do you install Ai Flight Plans onto FSX?towerdude

1. If this only happens with the ERJ 190s, it is apparent that this is not a hardware or FSX error anyway. 2. Traffic.bgl files can be placed in any active scenery folder, but normally are in the scenery\world\scenery folder. Flightplan.txt files are used with other files to create the traffic.bgl files.

sounds like you do not have the trim set right. keith

Hey TowerDude: Press the "S" key to take you outside the aircraft; go around to the tail; now pull the top of your stick towards yourself... which direction does the elevator go?

Where can I find the traffic bgl. file?

The elevator goes up, but I still don't understand how it doesn't come off the ground right away (at take off speed).

Do you have your elevator trim set correctly? If not, you will find that getting of the ground can be very difficult. As for the autopilot, I'm not sure how it works on a EMB-190, but make sure that you have an altitude selected that is higher than your current one, so that the A/P will want to climb to that altitude.

What do you currently have that you want to install? Or, do you want to create an AI Traffic file from scratch?

I guess I could create an Ai Traffic file. How do you do it?

towerdude

To create an AI Traffic file you might want to consider the freeware program AI Flight Planner by Don Grovestine.

Actually, I don't want to create a traffic file. I'll tell what I have that I want to install. Winter 2008-2009 Flight Plans for FedEx.

Too easy then! Just place your traffic .bgl into the scenery\world\scenery folder (with FSX not running) and you will be good to go when you fire up FSX!

Check fuel and weight in aircraft menu, FSX has a habit of overloading planes by default.

You won't find the traffic .bgl if you don't want to create a traffic file, they are one and the same!
