I've just completed LHR-ATH-LHR with FSLTL providing AI traffic.

Lots of traffic on departure from LHR and lots on arrival at ATH but when I returned to LHR there wasn't a single aircraft on the ground. But, there were still lots of aircraft in the sky and they were attempting to land at LHR but every time they executed a go around.

Any ideas from anyone?

Yeah, Asobo "started" on AI traffic with SU12. Glad they didn't marked it as "fixed" already.
Played around a bit with AI traffic since SU12 release. Not impressed. AI Traffic or Real Time Live Traffic is the worst part of this sim.

I don’t understand how ATH had aircraft on arrival but when I flew back to LHR there was nothing and traffic all went around (which wasn’t happening when I left LHR). 

I have been noticing this also, did a flight from Sydney yssy  which had traffic..then off to YBBN.  No Traffic at all.

I saw it too. Had no traffic at EDDF. Not one single plane at the airport. There still were planes flying. Later the same at KROA. AI traffic in the air but no planes at the airport.

Is there a new thing after SU12?

SU 13.

Just did another roud trip LHR-FAO-LHR and on arrival back into LHR no AI traffic again. They were landing but just disappearing on the runway. No extra static aircraft on stands (despite me selecting that option in FSLTL). It's a complete immersion killer.

P3D had this sorted, can't believe AI in MSFS is so bad. Is there any way to fix this?!

Yeah. Had mine disappear most of the flight to only show up about 5 miles on final. That was a fun stutter fest. Loading all of those planes at once.

I would uninstall and reinstall the fsltl program.  I had this happen once after updating tht program.  A reinstall of everything fixed it

I uninstalled and reinstalled, flew LHR-MAD-LHR today and on arrival back at LHR, once again, NO AI aircraft on the ground.

They're in the air, they're approaching the airport but everytime they attempt to land, they go around.

This is a complete immersion killer - someone must be able to help with this?

I've also noticed when I land at LHR, since this 'ghost airport' phenomenom the FPS has dropped a bit as well.

. . . . .and I've just spent almost all day, futzing around with this sim, trying to get FSLTL and/or FS Traffic to show up.. I had it working three weeks ago, when I last fired it up, (Drz's fantastic KRNT!) - and then a few days ago, Bert (Pieke) suggested a fine SamScene Vancouver addon scenery that also includes CYYJ.. Like him, I'm also a PNW flyer, so I thought I'd give it a go. I made a simple flight plan, followed the startup "this and that" routine, and sat, waiting for the big things to begin showing up. Nothing. Nothing landing; nothing at any gates; nothing taxying. I am so sick of this sim: its incredible scenery has ruined almost any chance of "going back" to - even the latest P3x, or XP - (which needs weeks to download enough Ortho to even come close to it). Update after update after update, and still a sim that is totally unpredictable from one day to the next. Sorry for the rant. I just don't know where to go next.

Well, I started up this morning, loaded FSLTL, MSFS, sat on the grass at Toronto Pearson in a 172 - and watched a large airport fully working, without issues: couldn't see a thing wrong, and yet had made no changes to any files. It's just about perfect - and now I'm one step closer to being locked away!

I downloaded the experimental version of FSLTL and I'm happy to report that in addition to what @Paul J observed, the planes are no longer landing 3/4 down the runway. One or two go arounds happened but I did not use a flight plan API. This was at KLAX.

Also noticed that AI traffic is showing again on the TDS GTN750 Traffic page with the latest experimental version
