elmerfudd Posted August 14, 2019 Share Posted August 14, 2019 Microsoft has messed this one up. You may be directed to runway 26L for take-off, which doesn't appear to exist. The sim shows only two parallel runways, 25L and 25R. 26L begins about halfway down 25L. In reality, there is no 26L at Frankfurt. elmerfudd Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tgibson_new Posted August 14, 2019 Share Posted August 14, 2019 Hi, They probably did that to allow AI aircraft to take off from mid-runway? Tom Gibson CalClassic Propliner Page: http://www.calclassic.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hgschnell Posted August 15, 2019 Share Posted August 15, 2019 No, Tom til 2009 "26L" was used for landing simultaneously with 25R. Because the runways had not enough distance they shifted the touch down to the southwest. You can see the markings and PAPIs on Google Earth history. With the new runway 25R it was gone. The old 25R became 25C. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
