In the F15S aircraft.cfg list, [fltsim.3] has atc_parking_codes=92SM, is this correct? Should it be 92SQ like the rest?

its a maintenance bird and it parks in a certain spot
On Ge it looks like an engine test area

well... if its got something to do with your signature... then i'm beggining to like this yet to be revealed part :lol:

BTW just a question, do the KE-3 and F-15 (and Tornadoes) form the RSAF tend to fly to the same waypoints at the same time as simulating air refueling?

(Not a request just a small doubt from a fan)

Looking through the readme, it mentions to post with any updates.

Well, when I was at Red Flag in February, 6 Sqn, RSAF were using the callsigns, Tiger and Sword.

Keep up the good work,

Fantastic job, guys!
Thank you for afcad credits (I'm very glad for this!), but I think the most contribute is due to Dan Bourque and not to me!
I have a little question:
I notice that 29° squadron of Saudi ADV Tornado has 16 different repaints, but only 6 dedicated parking spots, with these codes: 2SQ 3SQ 5SQ 6SQ 7SQ 13SQ 15SQ 21SQ 29SQ 34SQ 55SQ 75SQ 79SQ 83SQ 88SQ 92SQ 66SQ.
I think these 6 parking spots are for every squadrons ...
We have many spots without codes.
Any suggestions?
Cheers

The answer is:
The 29th squadron's home is OETB, and not OEDR.
So we have in OEDR some parking spots for transient aircraft ...

Aren't exercise callsigns different than standard ops though?

Saudi F15 Taif AB

Post by plumber »

Hi, Have installed all of your Middle East A/F downloads and find them to be fantastic and they merge very well with my previous Just Flight Mil add-ons. Just one wee problem, at Taif there are no directions from parking to the active runway and on occasion there are none on landing to parking?

For flyable or AI aircraft?
If AI do you mean they just sit where they are or that they disappear?

Can you also confirm that that you use FS9. Thanks.

Hi Steve,
FS9, Its not the AI that is a problem, there are no directions from atc apart from which runway to go to, ie; there is no selection available from atc to select the visible guide line.

Brian,
Well according to the afcad docs the AI and parking instruction system uses the afcads taxiway links and nodes to create the pink line.

Now two things come to mind here. One the afcad was created with afx, so that might be why it doesn't appear. or possibly as it uses the taxiway designators for the pink line the fact that there is no taxiway designators may possibly throw it into confusion.
I am afraid i don't know enough about this particular part of the system to be able to give a concrete answer.

You could try saving a copy of the afcad and try naming a few taxiways to see if that fixes the problem. Please be aware though that everything that has the _afx_ included in its name means that it was created in afx and although you can open, mod and save them in afcad you WILL lose ALL afx features, i.e. excludes.

I hope this helps or provides a stimulus for somebody else to provide a more complete answer.
Steve
