Military AI Works

I know this topic was discussed sometime ago on this forum. I cannot get any of the C-17's to show up at KTCM?? Other aircraft show up there. I have tried the default afcad, and the addon afcad. I created special flightplans that I use for static aircraft with no luck. I have tweaked the afcad, no luck. I have seen McChord C17's at other airports. C17's show up at the other C17 bases (Altus, McGuire, Dover, Charleston, etc). My parking codes and sizes are the same. I anyone has any suggestions, I'd appreciate any help.

Thanks in advance,
Ken

Ken,

I noticed that you said you created special plans for statics.

I wonder if you could try something. Copy/save your "standard" plans and swap out one of the aircraft (which you know is appearing) with a C-17 model and see if that works. It would at least establish whether it was afcad or plans that were the cause.

If you are using the old PAI package, keep in mind that the coordinates of some of the airports written in the airports.txt files are wrong. This causes the C-17s not to show up.
I made some updated flightplans for McChord's C-17s which also include new registrations and the correct coordinates of the airports taken from the default file, and they work fine for me. I used the titles provided in the PAI package so you don't need to change the titles in the aircraft.cfg files or edit the flightplans.
You can get them in the "My flightplans" thread in the "My projects/packages" section.
Let me know if you sort it out somehow!

Thanks, you nailed it. Wrong KTCM coordinates in most of my airport.txt files, also in my master airport file. C17 and others showing at McChord. Figured it was something simple. Thanks again!!!
