It definitely seems to be the _ALT file that's causing my problem, which I really should have thought of in the first place, before asking here, sorry.

Gera has a point, in that we are definitely going through a lean period in terms of development - but I'd say both in terms of freeware and payware, not just payware. It's not new, though - it...

Here's some real figures for you.

The cost to me of aerial imagery, far from coming down, has increased by over 20% in two years. I've stopped looking at using it. What cost me £80 for a 2km...

You're also missing two critical points. Three, technically.

1) The VAT you pay in the UK has been changed from originally 17.5% to 15% briefly, then to 20% since the last election.

Thanks guys.

It's been tracked down to "veh_air_ASAS_Bus", which is apparently installed by the Scansim Kastrup X scenery.

I'm hoping to get a copy of Kastrup X so I can investigate further,...

Question Suggestion: Adding a bit of "Living" to the FSX World

I was doing a little bit of thinking this morning, courtesy of some searching for and downloading freeware sceneries. That sort of thing is always dangerous, but I've run my idea past a fairly well...

I'm not 100% sure, but I think they may only appear with "Medium" and "Large" spots, not small, so if you made a "Gate -...
