John Young has released no less than 5 new, native FSX AI Lightning packs, I think they are really good and a welcome addition to the Hunters, Canberras and Victors he released earlier :salute::salute::salute:

sure wish someone would do a exe. file with flight plans for his stuff.

some day I will learn how to add these planes in AI.
 
It is really not to difficult.. There is a very nice freeware program that makes it easy as can be to do this. Unfortunately at the moment I am on my living room computer and not my FSX one. However once I get back from taking the family shopping later on today I will post in here the program I used, and how to do it. The only thing I do not like is that the aircraft must return back to whereever it started by the end of the FSX day. Otherwise the flight plans do not work. If you are just looking to make aircraft in the pattern though, or do point A to B and back to A it is a great program however.
 
Here are 2 simple flightplans for RAF Wattisham EGUW and RAF Binbrook EGXB, they use the Lightnings from John's pack 1 & 2. They will do local sorties and some will be just static.

Installation:
1. Unpack the zipped files Traffic_RAF_Binbrook_EGXB_FSX.bgl and Traffic_RAF_Wattisham_EGUW_FSX.bgl
2. Put them into this folder: .\Scenery\World\Scenery
3. Make sure the FSX Traffic sliders are at least 5% for basic Lightning activity, if you set them > 80% there will be max activity.

RAF Binbrook is not included in stock FSX, but Team SDB has a payware version for FSX - FlightSIm Pilot Shop has it.

I also added a simple RAF Binbrook scenery (basically an AFCAD file with parking spots). RAF Binbrook scenery installation:
1. Unpack the zipped files EGXB_ADEX_HS.bgl and EGXB_ADEX_HS_CVX.bgl
2. Put them into this folder: .\Addon Scenery\Scenery
