OPIS Islamadad P3Dv5

[Knoblet 8]

OPIS is installed in my third party folder yet PSXT does not recognise it and gives a message of:

"User aircraft on the ground with a lat long (which by checking the airport bgl with ADE is correct)  and no airport in sight"

Is this because as a relatively new aiport it is not included in default scenery but the old one OPRN is?

Indeed.

In the \data\airports_p3d.xml file you can see all the airports it will recognize, here a "snippet" from that file and as you can see OPIS is missing:
