I developed an application in VB/Access with the following characteristics:1. Clicking a button make a random search at the airports database of FS9, according to none to all of following criteria:a) range of lengths, widths and/or elevations of runway;:( city, state or country of origin and destiny;c) surface type, runway lights.2. At the same time a random search is carried out at the aircrafts and a type is suggested (disregarding runway limitations).3. Another random search at flights folder shows an adventure suggestion. Once a flight is being suggested, a command button calls the flight directly, even in case FS9 is not running.The application runs outside the FS, does not require installing (just a shortcut to the .exe file anywhere), but requires vb dlls and msaccess.If someone is interested, please let me know. It is [email protected]

Why not put it into the Library here at AVSIM?

Jeff Bea

I am an avid globetrotter with my trusty Lufthansa B777F, Polar Air Cargo B744F, and Atlas Air B748F.

The app uses a mdb file (airports database) 1.8Mb, too big for attachments in this forum. Any idea on how to overcome this difficulty ?Jose

How about uploading it to AVSim's file library? ;)

I think you are confused about the size limit as regards to attachments to posts in this forum.If it wa suploaded to the Avsim library, I'm sure many would download it.Barry

The application is already available at File Library, section Utilities, as Randomizer.

Can I ask how you got the database of airports? Technically it is in violation of the EULA to decompile the BGL files that ship with FS and posting them to a forum like AvSim could put them in violation as well.
