Hi there-

Im just asking on how can I edit the AFCAD in FSX? I know how to do it in FS9 but not sure of it in FSX. The traffic tools by Lee Swordy is only for 2004 and not for FSX. So, anybody know what program is used to edit them? Any help would be appreciated.

Thank You

 Yikes, I used to very fluent in editing afcads for FSX but that was 15 years ago. AIFP for editing flightplans though.

Use ADE (Airport Design Editor). It works for anything between FS9 and P3Dv5.

Airport Design Editor is what I use and once you learn it, it is an incredibly powerful tool.

The other option is the AFX payware from Flight1.

Since OP mentioned TTools, there is also AI Flight Planner, you can download it from fsdeveloper

TTols seems native to FS9. The one by Lee Swordy says its very old. I'll give ADE a try and see if that helps in editing AFCAD files.

Thank you
