Drive Through Parking 2

[wbunnell]

Have completed drive thru parking for Dyess AFB.

The problem now is trying to keep aircraft from taxing thru each other, when one is taxing out and one is taxing in.

I am using MAIW B-1, C-130, and KC-135, for testing.

While using the C-130, the tower told three or four aircraft to hold position, for what reason I don’t know, there were no aircraft, close to any of them, nothing in their way. After about a minute they were told to continue taxing.

I personally do not have a problem with that, but if the tower can tell an aircraft to hold position on the out plumbing of the drive thru setup.
Is there away to alter the control tower chatter, to include the same thing on the inbound plumbing?

Maybe not what you're after, but I suggest altering your flightplans so that you don't have simultaneous arrivals and departures, thus reducing the possibility of head-ons.

Changing the flightplans, is a great idea, but sooner or later it going to happen.

It would be a lot better to have the control tower control the aircraft.

Maybe the term “Drive through Parking” means exactly that, drive through.

As with many things in the FS9 AI engine, if you change one thing, it results in something else happening and you end up in this never ending chase for perfection.
