How do you have problems with PAI? PAI and AI-aardvark are the best hands down. I have over a thousand different airliners from them and they work great.

Im just wondering, why is everyone using 1 runway for takeoffs AND landings for ai traffic? Especially at an airport like JFK with multiple long runways? And why use all these stupid "ai smooth" programs? This is what I do and I get the best results like this. In the afcad file set 1 runway as the "takeoff only" runway (check off "closed for landing" on both ends of the runway). For the other 3 runways set them as "landing only" runways (check off "closed for takeoff" on all the other runways). Now you have aircraft landing at 3 different runways to prevent congestion, and I have about 50 planes landing per hour at JFK and about 2 go-arounds per hour. Having all the planes takeoff at 1 runway is not a problem because takeoffs go quick and smoothly when theres no landing aircraft interrupting (theyre all using the other 3 runways). Also, when a taxiway crosses over a runway, take away the blue intersection node connecting the taxiway and runway and take away the hold short node from the side the aircraft is coming from, just have the taxiway go over the runway rather than intersect it so now taxiing ai aircraft dont hold if other aircraft are taking off or landing, this is a MUST because taxiing aircraft will hold short there until they disappear, and it doesnt even make sense to hold short for a landing aircraft 8 miles away when it only takes 2 seconds to cross the runway.

Use perpendicular runways instead of parallel runways. La Guardia for example: use 1 runway for landings and the other runway for takeoffs. Problem solved, no more backed up aircraft waiting for all those approaching aircrafts.

You should do what I do. Instead of having the aircraft land and takeoff from 2 different parallel runways, use 2 perpendicular runways (1 for landing and 1 for taking off). Now the landing aircraft dont have to hold short at the parallel runways to wait for all aircraft takeoff.

I'm having an issue at KJAX for FS2004. I have the AI aircraft taking off at runway 13 and landing at runway 7 to keep the traffic flowing (which I do at all airports with multiple runways). For some reason, only at this airport, when the ground control tells an aircraft to hold position for passing traffic, the ground control never tells them to continue taxiing, which really is a pain. I don't have this problem at any other airport. Any idea what could be causing this? All aircraft are AI friendly from ProjectAI.
