January 15, 200620 yr I have TropicSim Kingston Jamaica scenery. Starting my approach to airport runway 30 was active! There are no landings and takeoff at runway 30. Also, RC4 asked placed me a holding pattern at first for 10 minutes then for additional 25 minutes! Once at minimum fuel I landed on runway 12 even though runway 30 was active.I am betting the problem is a FS9's limitation in not closing runway 30 for landings? Also, why a 35 minute hold?Thanks,Ulysese
January 15, 200620 yr Commercial Member seems like a long hold. did you take vectors, or fly a holding pattern. did you actually fly the holding pattern?i can't really help it, if the ai are landing and taking off rwy 30. i follow the aijd JD Read my blog

January 15, 200620 yr Commercial Member that may not have accurately flew the holding pattern, that rc sees. it's expecting by default 20 miles legs, outbound headings equal to the 180 degree difference of the inbound radial. if rc doesn't see that you are going 60 miles out, and turning back, you don't get credit for the circuit.jd JD Read my blog

After flying the intial hold until 1610 the EFC was 1635.
