I am not sure if anyone is aware of this but, there are missing airports in FSC's database. Every time I run the database builder, I still have the same airports missing and who knows how many more that I am not aware of. This is of concern because what if I fly a long haul trip only to find out after landing that FSC doesn't recognize or know where I am.... Some examples, VTBS, RJBE, MDCY etc. When building the database, I even rearranged scenery.cfg to make sure that the newer afcads are read first. Help   |

Hmmm, this is a puzzle. I was about to ask you to send me some files but I see that my Admin doesn't recognize either of the three you mention... and I'm looking at them in my airports.cfg file. You shouldn't worry about flying there only to not have it recognized... as the Admin won't let you dispatch a flight to or from there if it doesn't recognize the area. I'll dig in my data to see what they might have in common... and here I thought I was going to fly this weekend.  |

I am a little bit baffled. Neither VTBS, RJBE, or MDCY is in my FSX. Are they add-on airports?
If they are in airports.cfg after a rebuild of the database, are their runways also in R5.csv?

I've done some scenery pruning in the past few days and I don't see MDCY, but VTBS (MyTrafficX) and RJBE (freeware scenery) are both in r5.csv as well as the other MakeRwys files.

Any ideas what happened?

Travis could you send me your airports.cfg file with those airports in it?
I can't believe the Admin wouldn't find an airport that's in that file.
But we will see...

I just saw this, sorry.
I'll have to dig the appropriate .cfg from my backups. Currently I have VTBS and RJBE in my MakeRwys files but not in my latest airport.cfg.

Dutch, I'll be sending mail shortly. Ysfsim, In the meantime, if you add these lines to your airports.cfg file, you'll be able to manage flights to/fro. RJBE,8219,1,1,1,34.632778,135.223892,KOBE AIRPORT,0
VTBS,13123,1,1,1,13.68572,100.749168,Survarnabhumi,0I've mislaid my MDCY scenery - - so I don't have the values I need to manually generate the data for it. Attachments:

I think there may be an improvement in this area for the next build release.

thanx, could you explain the format? For the string- RJBE,8219,1,1,1,34.632778,135.223892,KOBE AIRPORT,0. RJBE is the airport, 8219 is the longest runway, 34.632778 and 135.223892 is the lat/lon, Kobe airport is the name. So what is the rest like (,1,1,1,) and the zero after the name?

I forget the exact order - I don't have access to my code now [g] - but the three consecutive flags relate to HasILS, HasTower, HasHardSurfaceRunway. The final flag is (again I'm working from memory so I could be wrong) IsStockScenery.

The missing airports will no longer be missing in 1.2.1...
