Ciao Gio ,

AFCAD files are CAD files that allow to edit the airports. Practically (in the AFCAD software, that you can download from this site) you view the airport in a "CAD" style and you can edit runways, taxiways, localizers, ecc. ecc.

If you need more detailed information (nella nostra lingua magari.... ) you can PVT me your mail address.

Bye !

Hi,

If your not familiar with AFCAD here is the authors description;

Author: Lee Swordy This is a CAD-style editor for airport facility data. You can create new parking, modify taxiways, add ATC to airports that don't already have it, create new airport facilities from scratch, and other things. It can't change the visual elements of an airport, just the maps and data that AI and ATC use to operate at airports, and the information that appears in you Map View and GPS windows

.

So when you download scenery upgrades that include changes to an airports visual layout or new facilities like navaids or more parking the author may include an AFCAD 'export'
