doesn't count.. same name, different location (Birmingham)... probably not even the same livery according to reports 🙂 Graham

worked for me.. added the zipfile and still got the install as oci screen as normal.. and nothing went wrong when I fired it up 🙂 Graham

welcome... I'm slowly thinking about resetting my world to the summer before Covid to get maximum flights and airlines in my sim. What I have to do.. and I have this question outstanding, is whether I can have multiple folders in community that I can flip in and out depending on whether I fly in 2018 or today 🙂 Graham

This may be of use to you... you fly in the same area as me 🙂 I posted a question on the AIG forums about FlyBe being a dead airline but was it available and was told that to get dead airlines you could go to http://www.alpha-india.net/aigfiles/files/Flightplans/ and search there.. so I did and went to the Summer 2018 directory. Downloaded the Summer 2018 FlyBe flightplans as a zip and then opened the manager and under flightplans selected install from local zip and added the Flybe zipfile. It downloaded the routes and the appropriate aircraft and on a quick check, I had an Q400 in Flybe livery at Exeter and a couple of Flybe's at Bristol (along with the Ryanairs and EasyJets and a KLM). Thought this may help. Graham

Question for all you knowledgable folks...actually 3... I see people stating that they compiled it at 66% and run it at x% and this makes a difference... what the heck is this all about.. I downloaded all the flightplans at default settings and run with the traffic set to 35% in sim, nothing changed in either the ai manager or the traffic controller so how does this compare? Second.. If I wanted to get FlyBe into the sim (yes I know it's a dead airline) can I go back in time and find Flybe flightplans and liveries and add them to run as of today even though they don't exist anymore? Finally, I'm on steam, and I regularly have Traffic Controller drop out on me during a flight and have to restart it.. is this a known issue, or am I just lucky? 🙂 Yeah, I know I said I was out, but I'm trying again as this solution makes most sense to me.. IF I can get it working to my satisfaction 🙂 Graham

Yeah.. I'm out 🙂 OK spent three days trying to make this work.. I'm on steam if that is relevant. Installed the software and triple checked everything to make sure it was right. Started by having the endless loop after trying to load an airline at the save AIGP or whatever.. went round that, by removing everything from Community folder, downloading some flightplans and putting everything back in community folder. I believe there was supposed to be a fix for that yesterday, but it never showed up.. still happening this morning after the AIG manager updated. Downloaded 2 airlines to check if it was working. EasyJet and Ryanair (since my home airport is Bristol) and loaded in expectantly.. nada, nothing, no dice airport looked like it was closed.. soooo went to gatwick and woohooo saw some aircraft.. okay.. so quiet time at bristol. Went to fly from Gatwick to Bristol, just for the hell of it... taxiing to runway at Gatwick.. AIG shut down. restarted it.. Shut down immediately.. restarted it.. shutdown and CTD's MSFS2020 only the third CTD I have EVER had on MSFS. Went back to bristol.. loaded up a plane on the tarmac and then started AIG.. nothing.. nada.. checked it.. no flightplans installed. went back opened tha manager and re-downloaded Ryanair and WestJet.. restarted everything and no planes at Bristol, but there were a couple in the air.. so waited.. Got ATC clearing an Embraer to land.. Got excited.. droned over to the end of the runway to watch it approach heard it approach, watched the lights coming closer.. yes it looks like an Emraer wooot this is awesome... followed it all the way down to the tarmac and the second it hit the tarmac, it vanished. Did't even taxi to a stop and pirouette or anything. Got depressed and went to bed. This morning, saw there was an update for the 747-400 so went into manager and did the appropriate to update.. update was really fast so I looked at top of screen.. 1281 airlines to download... checked and I again had no airlines installed according to the manager. Deleted everything. Don't worry.. I'll be back in a year or so when it's all out of beta, working on steam, not locking up with other things in the community folder and is STABLE. Yes I know it's beta, but for me it's too beta right now. For those that have it working flawlessly.. Enjoy. Graham

my understanding as well.. in addition there was supposed to be a fix for an endless loop with other things in the community folder which is still there. Graham

OK this is the file on mediafile that is driving me nuts... Not sure if anyone can help, or even if I'm allowed to do this.. but if someone could get this file for me, I would be very grateful 🙂 TY got the file 🙂 Regards GE

okay thanks. Graham

Ahhh okay.. so I should just hold off until later in the week? or is there a specific package I can delete in community to let it go ahead? BTW forgot to mention, I'm on steam if that is relevant. Graham

okay next issue.. I can get the flightplans to download by skipping the mediafire downloads, but when the plan is finished.. the one-click window never closes.. it just hovers on Save AIGFP... and never closes the window?

okay thanks

Airlines that went to mediafire were RyanAir and EasyJet Graham

ermmm okay.. so I get installed, and go to load my flightplans... tried 2 so far and in both cases it's sent me to mediafire to download something. Well here in the UK, Mediafire is blocked by BT for invalid security certificate so that's making it impossible to get these files due to SSL issues, and once you are in that loop of getting a download you can only get out of it by using task manager to get out of it.. so I can't see a way to use this program as it stands, without investing in a good VPN or something that goes outside the rules and regulations for UK use and bypasses the ssl checks? Anyone in the UK able to download these things from mediafire on a UK account or can recommend a good VPN that gets round this? Graham

Can I claim a Gotcha then? 🙂 Graham
