Approach paths

[Chris_CYWG 0]

Just wondering if anyone knows where the approach paths are stored in FS2002/2004.. What I am getting at is how does the plane know how to circle, or bank at 2 miles final when 40 degrees off to land. Are there "paths" in the sky?Are these editable at all? What I really want to do is add gthe ability for AI traffic in FS2002 to be able to do the LDA/DAM 26L approach in Honolulu... can this even be done in 2002? I see it being done in 2004...is there a file I can copy over?Why not use 2004 then... too many reasons why!Thanks,Chris

The AI in Fs2002 is much more basic then the AI in Fs2004, it for example flies in a direct line from departure to destination airport. So I don't think it is possible to let it fly approach routes.
