Thanks Graham for that tip!
Could be useful for VATSIM users aswell, as on VATSIM, everyone can pick a ceased airline too if they want to still fly with it.

welcome...  I'm slowly thinking about resetting my world to the summer before Covid to get maximum flights and airlines in my sim.

What I have to do.. and I have this question outstanding, is whether I can have multiple folders in community that I can flip in and out depending on whether I fly in 2018 or today 🙂

But what about MSFS compatibility? Is it safe to install pre-MSFS AIG flightplans?

worked for me..  added the zipfile and still got the install as oci screen as normal..  and nothing went wrong when I fired it up 🙂

This may be of use to you...  you fly in the same area as me 🙂

I posted a question on the AIG forums about FlyBe being a dead airline but was it available and was told that to get dead airlines you could go to http://www.alpha-india.net/aigfiles/files/Flightplans/  and search there.. so I did and went to the Summer 2018 directory.  Downloaded the Summer 2018 FlyBe flightplans as a zip and then opened the manager and under flightplans selected install from local zip  and added the Flybe zipfile.  It downloaded the routes and the appropriate aircraft and on a quick check, I had an Q400 in Flybe livery at Exeter and a couple of Flybe's at Bristol (along with the Ryanairs and EasyJets and a KLM). 

Thought this may help.

Thanks so much! I wonder if you have to then delete Loganair who have taken over some Flybe routes?

Keep up with news, FlyBe is not dead, it is to be based in Bristol from 2022.

For some reason on AI Manager: Settings-AIGAIM-OCI, Setup is not clickable any more (not working). Is this a bug? 

@Seth2021 I've just used "verify setup" now.

Birmingham. Treacherously abandoning my home airport so I'll not be using them.😇

@jarmstro Apologies!

Yes, verify setup works also here. The Setup on AIGAIM-OCI is not clickable anymore. 

@Seth2021 It is my understanding that once you have setupAIG you don't have to do i, as you only have to keep updating it. This I do every morning.

doesn't count.. same name, different location  (Birmingham)...  probably not even the same livery according to reports 🙂

Has there been any new aircraft added or any updates of note since the first release?  I haven’t been in the habit of running the program for updates on a regular basis but will if there are updates happening.

Thanks

You could privately share with anyone interested😉. 

Honestly, my main want at this point is simply static AI GA aircraft on smaller fields to make them feel more alive. Which I'm not sure is in the plans for AIG.  I know actual GA air traffic is in the works...just not sure about static.

It does work by turning up the AI ground density slider, but that also puts random airlines in places you would never actually see them.  For example, Turkish air at KBOS.  I suppose it is a trade off that could be considered for now.

Sure; give me until next week (I'm away for the weekend) and I'll send them over. Which version of MSFS do you have?

In broad strokes, this is how I got AIG to inject GA traffic into MSFS, with AI aircraft set to Off and static aircraft set to 0.

1. Download and extract AI Flight Planner (AIFP) from http://stuff4fs.com/.
2. Make a copy of your traffic.bgl from MSFS and save it to the Flight Plan folder inside AIFP.
3. Open up the traffic.bgl file you just copied.
4. Under Flight Plans menu, use the Subset feature to extract flight plans for only the aircraft you want, for example all the Cessnas.
5. Make any changes you'd like to the remaining flight plans (frequency, altitude, etc.).
6. Compile the new BGL with a descriptive name (e.g. traffic_cessna.bgl).
7. Copy the new bgl back to MSFS and rename the existing traffic.bgl to traffic.bgl.aigoff if it already hasn't be renamed by AIG.

If you open AIG-FP you should see your new bgl in the list of flight plans (and no other bgl). As long as you set AIG-TC to use AIG-FP flight plans you should see GA traffic as per the flight plans inside your 'GA-only' BGL.

You can confirm this by picking a flight plan from your traffic_cessna.bgl and going to that airport in the sim. As long as your AI traffic is set to Off (so that only AIG injects the traffic) and traffic.bgl is renamed (so that your new bgl is the only one AIG-FP detects), you should see the correct aircraft at the correct airport, as per the flight plan.

If you want to revert the changes, simply remove your bgl (and if you renamed traffic.bgl to traffic.bgl.aigoff, change it back to traffic.bgl.)

Enjoy!

Thanks so much for the above. But all I want is too see a few GA statics. Is there a way to do this? I've got AIGTC set at 70% and have set MSFS Ground Traffic to 20. But while MSFS injects some random static Airliners from AIG it does not seem to inject any GA planes so smaller airports are empty.
