Just to try and close this off as best we can:
Restart - Sounds like a conflict with GSXPro due to memory issues. The restart fixes it as it starts a new instance. Not sure there can be a permanent fix because both programs are competing for the same resource.
Still don't undertsand the GA thing you are proposing. That would work for a single aircraft/airfield, but the issue we face is re-creating that on a global scale and, unlike commercial airlines flights, the taxiway and runway situation at many of the small fields in MSFS is not the same as it was for FSX/P3D. When we experimented with this we found countless issues of planes moving around aimlessly and coming to a halt, not taking off, not landing, landing off the field etc etc.
A GA program (as we had in previous versions) that we could sell to the public would need to make a reasonable attempt to get the correct types and registrations of aircraft at the right places and this is not currently feasible to do in the same way that we achieved with FSX/P3D and X-Plane.
Believe me, the revenue from a GA pack would be most welcome and it would also give us an excuse to use some of the models we updated in anticipation. However, as it stands, it may have to wait for the next version of Traffic and, either way, woudl always be an add-on, rather than part of the main FS Traffic program. Same for military flights - also much easier to achieve with a degree of realism in FSX.
Blackpool - you are seeing nothing there from FS Traffic because there are no commercial airline flights for that airport in the database. There are things like Citations going in and out occasionally and King Airs from the likes of RVL, but the FS Traffic database is centred on scheduled commercial airline flights and therefore airports like Blackpool won't be catered for. We list all the aircraft and airlines featured (850+), but that is never going to cover every operator and every airfield and we try to make this as clear as possible.
All the traffic programs we have released over the last 25-odd years have had to compromise on realism to some degree and the latest version is no exception. However, we do think (and customer feedback suggests) that the latest version of FS Traffic achieves its task of adding realistic commercial airline traffic to the MS2024 world.
