ScottBotham Posted March 5, 2022 Share Posted March 5, 2022 Hello everyone, Ive bought a globemaster C17 Addon for FSX, and I wanted to do an IFR plan flight from Brize Norton AB, However ive noticed on FSX there is no parking available at AB'S, Only option is the runways and the fuel box. Im just wondering if theres a addon anywhere with AB's with parking? Kindest Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mrzippy Posted March 5, 2022 Share Posted March 5, 2022 You might have to go in and use Airport Design Editor to create parking at most default Air Bases. Some freeware addons may offer parking. I would just pull off of the runway and go park where I wanted. Still thinking about a new flightsim only computer! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
il88pp Posted March 6, 2022 Share Posted March 6, 2022 Airport Design Editor (ADE) is great, really. But be aware that to use ADE you have to have the Fsx-SDK installeed as well. Plus, a small edit of an airport can be done quickly with ADE, but making Addon airports from scratch can be a lengthy process. for now I'd start by finding Addon airports that others made. Plenty of stuff right here in the flightsim.com File Library. (link at top left of page somewhere) [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lnuss Posted March 6, 2022 Share Posted March 6, 2022 The flight plan doesn't specify parking, so you can file to the airfield then decide where you want to park, as the Zipper suggested, since ATC can't help you there, unless you want to start learning ADE. It's a super program and you can do a lot with it, but the learning process isn't a 10 minute learn and go- it takes a fair chunk of time. Or as il88pp says you can look for add-on files that have already done what you want (and probably a lot more too). Larry N. As Skylab would say: Remember: Aviation is NOT an exact Science!

dlfrenchmd Posted March 6, 2022 Share Posted March 6, 2022 Military AI Works has a lot of freeware Air Bases in FSX and FS9. One of their Brize Norton offerings might fit your need. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
longbreak754 Posted March 6, 2022 Share Posted March 6, 2022 Hi, As dlfrenchmd' has pointed out MAIW (website HERE) has loads of scenery for both FSX and FS9....alas there is no scenery for BZN but there are AI models and flightplans for the aircraft based there.... A good rendition of BZN, albeit for FS9 and not upto date with regards to the current airfield layout, can be found here at flightsim.com - search for nbegvn06.zip... Although its for FS9 most FS9 scenery can be installed into FSX with little problem - just look out for any traffic files -see below... Most of the original MAIW packages were for FS9 they have issued converted models for FSX and now have an increasing number of FSX based packages, scenery etc... There is also a very comprehensive guide on the website that details how best to install FS9 stuff into FSX and what potential problems may occur... You can browse the MAIW website without logging in but to download stuff you will need to register - its free... Regards Brian Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jorgen.s.andersen Posted March 7, 2022 Share Posted March 7, 2022 I don't know if I am getting blind or something - I click on the link provided, and everything there seems to cost folding money, including on page 9? Jorgen Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
longbreak754 Posted March 7, 2022 Share Posted March 7, 2022 Hi Jorgen, the JF website loads items in a different order depending on how you select the listing... However, an easy way to find the free stuff is to use the search box located at centre top above the category buttons and enter the phrase free into the field - it will display all the free stuff... You don't need a JF account to download the free stuff - simply click on the item and once the page is loaded there is a download button to start the download...

jorgen.s.andersen Posted March 8, 2022 Share Posted March 8, 2022 Thanks, Brian, I just knew I had missed something :confused: Jorgen Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pomak249 Posted March 9, 2022 Share Posted March 9, 2022 Sorry you just need to select FSX then scenery which should have 9 pages i5 4690 (350mhz) with Arctic Cooler, 8GB Corsair Vengeance 1600mhz, ASUS Rock H97 performance MoBo, MSI Ventus XS OC 1660GTX 6GB, Windows10 64bit, 256GB and 500GB Crucial SSDs Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CRJ_simpilot Posted March 10, 2022 Share Posted March 10, 2022 (edited) This very website's library has a lot as well. I have made some of them myself and uploaded here... If you are like me and have loads and loads of AI air traffic, then get in the habit of "upgrading" each airport you fly from and to -- to accommodate all the parking needed. Eventually your world wide airports will all be upgraded. At least the one's you fly to most often. FSX's core has 24,222 airports. LOL! Edited March 10, 2022 by CRJ_simpilot OOM errors? Read this. What the squawk? An awesome weather website with oodles of Info. and options. Wile E. Coyote would be impressed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jorgen.s.andersen Posted March 12, 2022 Share Posted March 12, 2022 Finally got my act together (this here so-called real life seems to get in the way always) and checked Just Flight. Those sceneries from ACG are also available on MAIW. Jorgen Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
