Any plans for an FS2020 version?

MSFS now installed on a new nvme drive, wow the load times are massively quicker 😁

you may need AIFP to get the latest "schedules" .... bgl's though, not that i see any reason for AIGFP's

BGLs only follow great circle routes, AIGFP's allow for SIDs STARs, avoiding certain airspace (eg UKR), randomised GA operations and so much more...

Yes it does take a while, but it's an automated download of every model, repaint and flightplan for the whole world, you wouldn't expect it to be quick 😁

every one that you tell it to, I just download everything in one go, but you could do it regionally if you wished

Its comprehensively quite accurate, more so than anything else Ive ever used, and the LODs on the models seem to be highly optimised for a lesser impact on frame rates

I downloaded everything in one go but looking at what's installed there are plenty of airlines from regions I never intend to fly in so will try and unistall them...

 

Trouble is working out which ones lol

Never bothers me, I just leave them all, but if you will absolutely never ever fly where some of the fp's go, then do with it as you wish 👍

my experience in P3D with VATC's traffic controller is that traffic does broadly follow TMA procedures/routes .... as heard on comms & as occasionally seen.

en-route i hear (& see on tcas) traffic flying similar routes to mine (mine planned by PFPX within current ATS route restrictions)

for now, cheers

well, if you want updated traffic files and routes with AIG, you need to use AIGFP because I believe they've deprecated bgl.

Vox now assimilates AIGFP really easily so I dont think there's any reason NOT to use it?

Pretty sure AIG said some time ago that they weren't supporting any new flightplans in bgl, anything up to date is in AIGFP format
