I don't like to sit and watch, I like to be active with it

And for that, it depends on wat I want to fly lol

I go to random places "to see what I can see". I go to places I am working on afcad/scenery-wise. Each becomes a "favorite" for a period of time.

But I rarely just sit and watch - no military airport in my FS world has enough consistent traffic over any extended period of time to hold my interest.

My best place is Nellis. FSX has a nice air traffic controler facility built in & its great to see aircraft depart & recover to base.It also has a radar view so you can track inbound aircraft from miles away.

"air traffic controller facility"........I've never heard about that feature. Can one of you FSX users show me some screenshots, it sounds interesting.

Elmendorf AFB, decent amount of transients, plus i love the Alaska scenery. judging by the screenshots on the main page I will be liking Elmendorf a lot more

Shouldn't be too much longer, just working out some last minute issues.

My favorite has got to be the one I'm testing at present. But then again the other teams Beta is awsome too.....

Usually I love to spot AI where:

a) it is pretty crowdy and very active (ATL, JFK, FRA, etc.)
b) there are lots of different a/c to spot (various mixed civil/military fields)
c) rare and unusual a/c fly to (Russian airports, OMSJ)
d) colorful a/c are based (usually I go there after installing a new repaint)
e) I have a decent scenery installed (Decimomannu, Hawaii, Canary or Balearic islands, Malta, Lakenheath, Coningsby, etc.)

I like sitting at FlyTampa's Kai-Tek & Holger Sandmann's Glacier Bay Juneau Intl (PAJN).

You can go to views, then something about air traffic, and it shows all a/c that's in the sim.

Sounds like they've sorta combined the tools from the FS9 Traffic Tools SDK into a function of FSX.

Definately Anchorage! Between Anch. Int., Lake Hood, Merrill Field, and
Elemendorf you've got every type of flying there is, from Piper Super Cubs on floats to international 747 freighters to F-15's and Pavehawk helicopters
