How to... remove overridden airports, and remove italics?

Recommended Posts

I see both the base and add-on airports, with the base airports shows as strikethrough. How can I remove these?

Also, add-on airports are show in italics text. Is there anyway to change this?

You cannot remove the strikethrough. These are closed airports. The runways should carry a big X in the simulator if all is correct.

Exclude the airports from add-on recognition in options on page "Scenery Library Database". Add the path to the lower list.

So this seems to happen then when the base airport is "closed" but the add-on is "open"?

I would like them to be shown as different (e.g. the yellow circle), as this is a great feature, but would prefer the text formatting to be the same as other airports (as the yellow callout is enough to differentiate).

Airport is marked close if all runways are closed or it has the MSFS closed flag. You have an example and a link to the add-on?

Sorry, this cannot be changed.

YBF is the addon from https://flightsim.to/file/1665/bamfield-aerodrome-yfb which shows up next CYUC which is strikethrough.

This is two different airports overlaying:

  Bamfield Airstrip (CYUC)

and

  Bamfield Aerodrome (YBF) 

 

The latter one is the add-on and uses a wrong ICAO ident as far as I can see. YBF is an IATA code and according to Wikipedia there is only a Bamfield Water Aerodrome.


No idea how to fix this. FSX, P3D and MSFS do not allow to erase or rename airport idents exept by creating empty dummy airports.
