Madeira LPMA AI traffic won't land

Featured Replies

I have the excellent Wonderful Madeira scenery but unfortunately (I guess due to the "interesting" approach on RW05) I cannot get AI aircraft to land there:(They will happily takeoff and then magically disappear (if on T&Gs) and the airport is unrealistically quiet for the rest of the day.Anyone managed to get their AI aircraft to takeoff AND land at LPMA?RegardsAdam

Must be the moutainous approaches.You could edit the afcad file and see if you can change the traffic parttern so that they dont do touch and gos where the mountains would be but do a pattern on the sea side.I know that AI traffic dont like making approaches if theres mountains about. It could be that your traffic is approaching from the island side and not the sea side so ATC is telling them to be quite high then they dont land because they are too high up.Just a thought anyway.

There is the same sort of thing at Juneau, but if you swing the wind round they will start coming in from the sea approach, but it's not the same I know!
