Recommended Posts

>The selection places in the Go to Airports window are Start>Locations - not runways.>>You need to change the designator in the four start locations>on the runwasy at EGCC.... as well as the two runways and each link on the runway need to change ALL of the taxiway links and the taxi signs, three ILSs and all the approaches!!!Would be nice if someone (Russell??!!) could provide a 'one button does all' system?!

>>Would be nice if someone (Russell??!!) could provide a 'one>button does all' system?!>You may not want to do this. There are many reasons for a Start Location including the correct runway listing for the "Go To" menu.There are times in the default FS9/FSX that a runway does not get a Start Location. We have the ability to use this same rule in our enhanced airports so coding it as a "one button does all" is not a good idea unless the designer knows what the effects will be.It could be coded as a option but please do not lock a start location to a runway number.

That way the user could turn it on or off.-Russell
