Hi,First let me start by saying that this is not a Radar Contact problem. I'm posting here anyway since it affects RC and maybe someone else has come up with a solution.On certain airports, EKCH for example, I will very often be assigned a runway for takeoff or landing that gives me a tailwind component, sometimes quite strong. AI traffic is happily taking off and landing in the "wrong" direction, so either I accept the tailwind, or I risk getting a really closeup view of another plane travelling in the opposite direction.Does anyone know why this is happening? Is there some way to fix it?I'm using ActiveSky X and MyTraffic X along with RC.Tom

It has been stated by some that FS allows a significant tail wind for larger AI. If the runways are long enough tail winds of a max range of 10 to 12 knots typical for airliners are allowed for take-offs.Neither in the default nor the add-on in one the Aerosoft airport suites for EKCH show any terrain configurations nor runway properties that would specifically influence restricted direction landings.The AI approach gates are hard coded into the default APXXXX scenery files. If the direction of AI arrival through the approach gate is closer to the runway direction for a near straight-in approach with a tailwind component I believe 10 knots or less, jets will land downwind.There could be a lack of AI approach gates from a single direction. It is hard to say without disassembling the AP files to xml source code.It is extremely difficult and hazardous to modify AP files. There is no easy fix if this is the cause.

OK, thanks for your reply. I was afraid there might not be an easy fix :-(Tom
