what is this program, where do i get it, and how do i use it?

AFCAD is a program that currently works with FS2002 .... not yet 2004..... that allows you to create new parking spaces, new taxiways, new runways, and such that the AI aircraft can use.  You can moidify existing airports.... or add AI into airports that don;t have AI flights.

This creates the invisible part of the airport.... not visual scenery.  The AI "pilots" could care less if there is a visually aparent runway ....they just want an electronic runway....so they know where to go.

I think it is in trhe download sections.  If not do a Google search for the name....you'll come up with it.

Read more of the threads in this forum for more info.

Traffic Tools is a utility that allows you to add your own AI flights using stock or addon aircraft.  This can give you local airport a much more realistic traffic flow.  You will probably need to get your head round AFCAD first because even the largest airports don't have enough gates, so unless you add some the AI aircraft will land and dissapear.

Be warned that if you add AI aircraft even approaching realistic levels you will get a major frame rate hit.
