Thank you for the reply. WHere would I find the magdec.bgl file?

When you open the Flight Simulator file, you are on the main page. From there, you can enter into any of the folders. The two folders I referenced were Taxi2Gate and Addon. A copy was in both of those folders. Please let me know if that clears it up for you.

Wishing you a speedy recovery!

Thank you so much!

Thanks! How do you fix it, if it's not?

Thank you for the reply. LOL it was informative.

Thanks for the reply. How would I know if my Heading was changed from magnetic to True?

Thanks for the update. How would I change the Directional Gyro to make sure its' set to Magnetic North instead of True North?

It's all runways.

Happy New Year Simmers. I'm not sure if I'm the only one experiencing this, but there are two issues i'm trying to find a solution for. The first is frequent directions changes by ATC when using IFR flight plan. Using this example, i'm flying heading 130 then told to turn left 095, then as soon as I've completed that turn, then told to turn back to 130. Second issue is whenever I select the runways for ILS, it never lines me up correctly. I'm usually 5-10 degrees to the left of the runway. Has anyone else experienced these issues and is there a way to resolve them? Thanks in advance.

Thank you, Mr. Zippy. Happy New Year!

I know this has been posted and discussed many times before, but for whatever reasons, I cannot find anything that has worked. Does anyone know how to make the lights on the plan not look light little Christmas Bulbs?

Qballbandit - Thank you for responding. Glad to know i'm not the only one. You can find the files on Avsim and those seem to work. Not sure what the difference is or why it ocurred. If you find anything with those from Flightsim, please let me know. Happy Holidays!

Tom - To the rescue as always. First, thanks for the response. I've tried everything. Un/reinstalling, without and with upgraded textures/afcad, placing higher/lower than other nearby scenery (KDCA). Avsim has what seems to be the same files. After installing those, everything works fine. The only difference I found was that the afcad no longer has multiple runways active at the same time, so there is alot of go around due to ai. The thing is I tried different afcads with the other version and that didn't seem to make a difference, so I believe there is a conflict with one of the scenery files. Which one, I have no idea. Please let me know if you discover anything. Thanks!

Happy Holidays. Before just recently reinstalling FS2004, I've used the KBWI Scenery before and in addition to being thoroughly impressed, experienced no issues. Unfortunately, after reinstalling FS2004 and adding the scenery, whenever I try to fly to or start at KBWI, my system freezes. If I remove the scenery, FS2004 works fine. Does anyone have any idea of what could be causing this to happen out of the blue? Below is the file information, which can be found at Flightsim.com FS2004 (ACOF) - FS2004 Scenery FS2004 Scenery--Baltimore/Washington Int'l Name: kbwik5v2.zip Size: 29,237,350 Date: 11-05-2005 Downloads: 8,395 FS2004 Scenery--Baltimore/Washington International Airport (KBWI), Maryland (MD), v2.

Tom - Thank you so much. Appreciate the assist.

Thank you Tom. I'm trying to figure out how to use the tool in FS2004. in order for this to work, it seems that I have to decompile every flight plan I have, which is a lot. Not sure if there is another way to do this.

Thank you all for being so kind to help with this. Truly appreciate. Happy Holidays!

Is there a tool that can show me all of the airlines for a specific airport that I have flight plans for? I'm trying to make sure I have gates coded for each airline. Thanks!

Thank you so much. Will give it a try. Happy Holidays!

Roger - Thanks for the reply. That would work. Would SceneGenX work for FS2004? Unfortunately, I'm not familiar with any runway programs other than AFCAD.

Dedl - Your suggestion worked. What apparently happened in for some strange reason, when I installed the scenery, it put a copy on the main page under Taxi2Gate and a second copy in Addon under George F Charles. I found it by using the AFCAD.exe tool to look for duplicates. I deleted both, removed the grass, and reinstalled one and voila! Thanks for your assist. Hope you have a Safe and Happy Thanksgiving.

FYI - the weather in FS9 does play a role in which runway is active for landing/takeoff. I would still like to find a solution to avoid AI from having to fly through the mountain to land. I know DDP may possibly create an approach code for rwy25. Question though, I have some AI that won't land at all. They just show up at the gate. There is no problem with them taking off, just with some landing. My thought is it could be an AI Flightplan issue? Not sure. Any thoughts?
