Floating AI at RKSI

I downloaded RKSI (Incheon) for Korea which is not a default airfield. At first the AI aircraft I assigned worked fine, but after loading some PAI flight plans all the AI aircraft there float about 30 feet above the ground. The same aircraft work normally at all other fields, so I don't think its a .cfg problem.
Any suggestions for bringing them down to Earth?

Sounds as though the scenery designer has got the scenery elevation wrong. How do oridinary aircraft look in spot view?

If so, you'll need to contact him and get him to release an update

Giebster, I'm going to move this to the Scenery design forum, as it belongs there and you may get a better answer there.  Good luck to you!

Traffic Tools has a file called "Airports" when you decompile that sets the lat & long, as well as the altitude of the airports.

I think the problem is the airport you speak of is set too high in the airports file.  This means the AI is reading the airport at a higher altitude than its really at.

Try finding the airport ICQ code in the file and then change the last number in the line to be a little lower.  You might have to change the number several times after you recompile to get it to be the right altitude.
