Nice man. Yes, it's impressive to have in Free Flight action like this... About the VLXK, I confirm it has elevation problems - mine looks quite different, shunk in the ground (with SRTM Asia mesh). About the "whale", try with less mixture at the engines maybe - we already take off from altitude in Laos...
@dutch : Is there an optimum AI Traffic percentage I should use ?...

I use a percentage of 1%, all of my traffic files use that, and 1% will get rid of most all other traffic in the way.

Rgr, classic.
I've just returned from a 40mins CAS sortie at LS08. I used guns with T-28A Tacpacked Trojan. I located targets just north of LS08 and started straffing runs. I killed one and got hits on another one vehicle until l run out of bullets. Returning, over LVXK I encountered some flak. Noway... I have to Log this sortie... Landed at L20A & completed mission in FSCAI menu. In a joy, I'm checking FSCAI Log to see what I had accomplished and earned points. To my dissapointment, points were -5... I had destroyed a friendly unit !... Good job man !...
/////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////
On the bugs side : When at "Engaged" face, instead of hearing the relative sound, I got an error message window about sound.
I know this bug is known. I'm just reporting having it also apart when I'm hit from AAA, also at "engaged" transition phase.
But Flak bursts, I can hear alright.

A.) About VLXK Airport : I renamed this file "VLXK_ADEX_CEO_CVX.bgl" that comes with FSCAI's scenery for Laos, to "-VLXK_ADEX_CEO_CVX.bbgl" so it's deactivated, and airport is ok now with scenery objects in place also. It's about 5-6 meters below surrounding ground level now, otherwise it's ok. ////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////// B.) VLVV photoreal : VLVV - View to North VLVV - View to West Runway is not placed correctly - I believe it's default FSX. It should be at center of town. ///////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////// C.) 1. Dutch, have you found any proper repaint for Beechcraft D18 ? Send plz if you did (the blue one that AIs use ?) 2. Unknown site in my video is VL15 from your pack. Quite close to Planes of Jars for a Huey attack from there...

Have you guys found proper PC-6-missions so far? I was sitting at L20A yesterday, and the mission menue displayed about 20 different missions - most of them either for combat aircraft or aircraft with a larger cargo capacity. Only two missions for the PC-6, SAR and a Recon-mission. I´d thought we would have a lot more of PC-6-missions, especially around L20A!

A few quick responses.
I have never found any proper Beech 18 repaint for Air America. I'm considered making one myself, but no time for that.
My modified VLXK is plausible for the sixties, unlike the modern long asphalt strip. You can use ADE to adjust the airport elevation to fix it. Your mesh doesn't quite look like mine. I think maybe we aren't using the same one - my VLXK is certainly at the right level.
There should be quite a few PC-6 delivery and drop missions. I think took the aircraft assignment off those missions so either a PC-6 or a C-47 or anything small to medium could be used but it could be that the minimum volume is a bit too high to include the PC-6.

I just downloaded the freeware "BeechcraftC-45GUSAF_FSX" yesterday, but the VC has "black" windows. Anyone else using this and has a fix? I´m just about to test the "Beech D18S_N412K" now....
The hint concerning VLXK for changing the .bgl-file worked, thanks a lot!

Milton Shupe's Beechcraft D18 is a great freeware plane that I disvovered from FSCAI's Air America manual... About mesh at VLXK, probably something to do with ORBX (that I don't use), since all other Lima Sites are allright. ///////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////// Landscape near LS02 : Over Ban Ban / Ban Nap valley - red hot zone to fly - heading to LS07 : At LS07 - Only helicopters can land there actually... :

It's probably FTX VECTOR that's causing the issue, it has a well-deserved reputation for causing airport elevation issues. I've had to fix quite a few all over the world.
But it does put down roads and rivers where the map says they are as opposed to the default.

Where did you get the airplane? If I can download it, I'll see if I can fix the windows with MCX

OK, I tried to work on it, but it has errors when I open it in McX and when I try to recompile it, it fails hard.
Unfortunately, I have to be out of town tomorrow and won't be able to get to it until later in the week.
