it works, even more, AI taxispeed is slowing down to 5 kts when there are 90 degree corners in the taxiway (I checked it with aiview)Hans-Guenther Schnell

BRAVO IT WORKS!!But a warning to Afcad users:Less "taxi links" or blue "nodes" more speed!Panos Georgotas

Gia sou Pano,Does it affect the landing roll-out speeds while still on the runway?After all, this is why we need the "taxi speed" modification. I do not mind the default speed by which ground traffic is moving around, I only mind the very slow roll out speeds on the runway after a landing and until exiting on a taxiway.Stamatis

I've had 12 a/c doing 5 minute interval, IFR roundy-rounds between KORD and KGYY (about 60nm apart) for the last 9 hours. In all that time, there has been only one "Go Around!"Observing the a/c while landing, they brake to about ~11 to 14 kts, then accelerate (up to the limit I set of 25 kts) until nearing the next taxi exit. They then slow for the turn and exit about the same as before.A lot of how the a/c will behave depends entirely upon how *far* the next available exit point is.

Bill,"Observing the a/c while landing, they brake to about ~11 to 14 kts, then accelerate (up to the limit I set of 25 kts) until nearing the next taxi exit."Excellent! That is what we were missing. Thanks for the clarification.Stamatis
