Have an entry here for anyone who would like to add a water launch for AI sea planes for dog1's Dublon scenery at Truk. It's set up for only a flight of four planes max, so the flight starts within the sea plane ramp harbor area. Just copy and paste it into your airbase.dat file in the Info folder and number according to sequence. You can never have too many bogies rising to greet you.

Glad you can make some use of it Ghostrider. :ernae:

One thing I need to clear up from a PM I received...since this is only a entry into the airbase.dat file, it will not show up in free flight. Just in the Mission Builder. This is due to the fact that there is no Scenery File associated with it. As in .bgl's...textures...and all of that other stuff one finds in addons made by scenery designers. :wave:
 
Thanks for the airbase data DV. I ran it through MkAFD and came up with the necessary bgl's for adding it to the FF scenery selection list. Remove the txt extension and unzip into the scenery folder containing your Dublon base bgl's. Delete the folder's filelist.dat and this should put you on the spot in QC and FF.

CheerZ!
