September 19, 200520 yr Search the library for the author name Jim Vile.Download his Active ILS for EHAM. That will give you (1) the changed runway numbers, (2) the new runway, (3) WORKING ATC approaches for all runways, and much more.Jim's is the ONLY AFCAD for EHAM which works with the ATC approach system that I've seen for the default airport.AFCAD only deals with about 60% of the data necessary for a good FS airport - the rest of the work must be done in extra .BGL files created from XML code.Any AFCAD which doesn't include the extra files is not worth the time to download - I don't care how accurate the author says he has made the parking. It takes a lot more than parking to make an airport like EHAM work.One word of warning - do not expect complete real world runway usage and selection for landings and takeoffs. That is not possible at this stage in FS2004. Jim designs for WORKING airports with heavy AI usage.At EHAM you can have working or accurate runway usage - but not both at the same time.
