KORD Landing runway

Featured Replies

Hope someone can clear this up for me....Every time I fly into Chicago (KORD) Vox is sending me to runway 32L. I'm just curious why it is sending me there when 32L is NOT used for landings at KORD. Is there some sort of setting or something I can do so VOX does not try and land me there?Thanks

My guess is that it's based on the AFCAD for your scenery. You most likely have to edit the AFCAD to remove 32L for landings. I don't believe there is any way within VOX to do that.

mwilk is right, it is in your KORD AFCAD that has it marked for use of that RW.Vox like any other ATC programs reads the details of the AFCAD of the Airport and based on what is there it gives you the RW.BTW - if you would use FSX ATC or any other ATC program , you would get the same RW.it is not an Issue when looking at it, it's just the wrong RW in FSX that you have there.

Don't want to jump in the water without a swimsuit but can anyone tell me what is an AFCAD? Is it some sort of instructions for the ATC or what? I'm confused because when I download freeware scenery from flightsim.com (The sceneries that add missing runways, for example) I'm confused on what AFCAD means. Is it scenery?

The AFCAD is a scenery file and you will find them in the scenery folders of your addons, typically denoted AF2 or AFX and designated by the airports icao eg. KLAX or KORD etc. You can open them with tools such as 'Airport Design Editor', and these files represent a blue print of the airport. It defines the runways, taxi routes, the gates and which aircraft park there. Additionally, it contains information on the ground, tower, departure, arrival, ILS frequencies. Default FSX or programs such as VoxATC then use that info to rely it to the user.Hope that helps clarify.Chris
