Dude...you asked for AI, or as you called it "A1".  I gave you a link to the simplest AI site in the world.  What else do you need?

Hi new_pilot don't panic. Welcome to SimV. What you're asking is quite clear - the other 2 guys have some difficulty with English - after all, one's Scottish and the other is old colonial  :D

I don't have Waddington but if you need some help with scenery install you need to look first in the help section

http://www.simviation.com/fshelp.htm

and Grumpy's lair

http://www.simviation.com/lair/index.htm

where Doug has put together some useful tutorials. Try those first and then come back and ask again as you're bound to have more questions if you're new

Same goes for AI. You need to download and install TTools by Lee Swordy

http://www.simviation.com/fs2004utilities1.htm

It's has a detailed ReadMe that you really do have to go through. We all did but it's worth it because as well as finding out how AI works and how to set it up you'll be able to get AI doing all kinds of great stuff that really adds to your sim. There is a learning curve but you can get all the help you want over in the AFCAD and TTools forum.

Sorry this is only general advice but it'll help get you where you want to go.

Hi new_pilot...I take it you have spotted a package for RAF Waddington somewhere and want some help installing it. I know there are some about which include aircraft taking off and landing but say exactly which as they do vary some in the installation and the readme files are not always too clear .......tell us which package and from where and somebody is sure to help..........commoner ;)

The egxw_ai_pack.zip from Avsim will give you Nimrod and Sentry ai aircraft which taxi and take off and land at various times...there are others.

Dear me I just got a email from the guy - with almost exactly the same info as he put in this post!

Now I am not one to put emails sent in priavte in public, but this seems still confusing to me!

ok i have been looking on this website and have spotted a scenary of waddington and also some a1  flight plans to go with it can you tell me the easyiest way to put them  in to my flight sim so i can see the scenary  and bring it to life all the files are there on the downloads but i dont no were they are put into the flight sim  can you help


I hope you don't mind me doing that Stuart, but it wasn't anythign private/personal.

If you want to install scenery make a folder and call it: Waddington. Then make a folder and call it: scenery. Put that scenery folder inside the Waddington one. Put the BGL file in the scenery one.  Now put the Waddington folder (containing the scenery folder) into your Scenery Addons in FS.

You should have FS9>Addon Scenery>Waddington>scenery>the BGL scenery file
