• Which the release of FS2020 we see an explosition of activity on the forun and of course we are very happy to see this. But having all questions about FS2020 in one forum becomes a bit messy. So therefore we would like to ask you all to use the following guidelines when posting your questions:

    • Tag FS2020 specific questions with the MSFS2020 tag.
    • Questions about making 3D assets can be posted in the 3D asset design forum. Either post them in the subforum of the modelling tool you use or in the general forum if they are general.
    • Questions about aircraft design can be posted in the Aircraft design forum
    • Questions about airport design can be posted in the FS2020 airport design forum. Once airport development tools have been updated for FS2020 you can post tool speciifc questions in the subforums of those tools as well of course.
    • Questions about terrain design can be posted in the FS2020 terrain design forum.
    • Questions about SimConnect can be posted in the SimConnect forum.

    Any other question that is not specific to an aspect of development or tool can be posted in the General chat forum.

    By following these guidelines we make sure that the forums remain easy to read for everybody and also that the right people can find your post to answer it.

New Airport accepted, but Pilot Log differs

Hello
I've designed a new fictitious airport on an island (Marion Islands) south east of South Africa - about halfway to the Antarctic. FSX seems to accept the airport,comms, ils etc and it is listed under the airports and country.

However, when I fly from FACT for example or any other airport around the world, my pilots records log does not enter a "TO" airport - resulting in no landing but only the amount of time taken. If I fly from this airport and back to this airport, it will log both TO & FROM.

Another strange quirk, is that I have put ground lighting onto the apron, it shows when you leave the airport, but when flying to the airport, it does not.

Perhaps someone can point me in the right direction.

Thanks
Paul
 
Hi Paul,

It might help if you tell us which tool you used to make the airport.
 
Hello Arno

ADE v1.37.05 , SBuilderX,ILS GPS Approach Creator V1,Whisplacer,SCENERY DESIGN ENGINE VERSION 0.90 BUILD 2624,FSX SDK BGL Compiler and of course , NotePad.

As I said ATC recognises the airport, GPS also, comms work as well as ILS frequency and lights. Perhaps it could be airport identification, I have used FAMR - nearest RSA but also near antarctic where you have NZ & SA indents.

Hope this helps
Regards
Paul
