Turkey Intl at Istanbul

Flyer626

If LTFM is in neither LM prepar3D or FSX have you reached out to them to try to have it added without a major update to them. I have not figured out a way to edit these flights to update them to LTFM without the code in the database. If anybody knows how please give detailed steps,

I have reached out to the scenery developer to add static aircraft and/or animations to this airports but still no replies

If want to edit plans you should check the old TG Archive forum.

now that LTFM has been released for XP, will they have traffic over there while here on P3D, still has none?

Derek

@Flyer626 Is the airport in P3D yet?

Flyer626

never has had traffic even with last update

Flyer626

ICAO code LTFM does not appear in your database

Derek

@Flyer626 I think that is because it wasn't open for flights until April 2019.

I read a post that JF had updated TG to include this airport after that date.

You have to edit the plans yourself to get LTFM traffic.

The replace ICAO code does not work may be fixed in the next update, when this year sometime hopefully.

Flyer626

how do you edit plans when the airport does not exist in TG, step by step instructions would be helpful in this instance, not just a photo.

Ray Fry

@Flyer626
Put a support ticket into JF.

Flyer626

it was submitted a long long time ago and is still open or pending

Flyer626

I am just not sure what you did with this new update. Istanbul airport LTFM still does not appear in any database so it cannot be substituted in any flight plans. Am I correct or is there some way that I don't know to correct this so I can have traffic at this new airport.

Flyer626

Do you have an answer Rich for this issue or Derek?

Derek

@Flyer626

There is a substitute ICAO feature in the software. It should be detailed in the manual. If you have any problems, contact Just Flight support and they should be able to help.

Flyer626

OK, I substituted LTBA with LTFM,, new airport and then recompiled and the schedule still shows LTBA not LTFM

Derek

@Flyer626

The problem, as stated earlier, is that the airport isn't in P3D. I am fairly sure there is a way round it, as Ray says, but you will need to contact JF support. It may be that the instructions are not clear enough.

You can raise a ticket here:

instructions are fine, it took the substitution no errors, I will contact support to see if there is a way around this. Any new airport that might be under construction or the new Berlin airport I guess might not work either

I looked further into this issue and found that the developer's installer never place the .bgl file into the simulators scenery, in this case world/scenery file. I manually pasted them in and I now have static aircraft at the airport along with some departures, so far I have not seen any arrivals yet. Some progress has now been made. At least I see movement at this airport.
