Getting confused on airbase.dat file

Tips on how to add landing points in CFS2 all over the World. You will still need to install the Airfields corresponding sceneries form the Airfield designer for the Hangars and othe Infrstructure to show up.

I have in one of my install over 600 Airbases entries with XP. What you can do is to add on your backup external Hardrive three or four or perhaps more folders with Airbabes collection inside it from different Areas of the World for your different Installs. Write the name of the area you are covering on the folder. For example Airbases for Western Europe on the Folder that has the Airbases covering that Area with in it.You can repeat this process over and over again. Just copy it from the Folder that has the Airbases that you want to fly from for that day and paste it inside the Info folder in the install that you want to use. Thats it.

You can use this method as many time as you like!

I hope you like this information! :wavey:
 
Fellows Have you noticed that using the stock airbase data entery and putting it in the center of the field the way CFS2 does it causes the planes to takeoff in one direction and land in an other direction? It also causes them to have a longer runout then is needed before they stop rolling.There is a fix for that and it is easy to do.I have posted the fix about four times in the past but got no responce from anyone on weather or not they used it or if they did use it to say if they liked it.Here is the fix that corrects all of thies problems.
