I'm having a problem with AI traffic and Ttools.  I will put a flight plan in, compile it and all, go to the airport at the approximate time the flight is supposed to leave, and it will sit on the ramp.   I've watched it sit at the gate for more than an hour past departure time.  What am I doing wrong?  I have the departures set for GMT and I have the correct day in.  Any help?

The first (only) thing that comes to mind is that some aircraft are not AI compatible ... no, I do not know why it would be visible and not fly, but I would try CHANGING THE AIRCRAFT.

To view AI traffic get Traffic Tolbox FREE from Microsoft Don't try viewing AI traffic without it ;-)

Are you using local time or GMT to determine when you believe
the flight should leave? TT uses GMT for the flight plans.

Another possibility is that the airport has a problem that
prevents AI from taxiing. Could be a broken taxi link. Is there
a tower and COMM frequenies for the airport? AIR AI needs
tower facilities to operate .
Try opening the airport in AFCAD2 and run the "Fault Finder"
under the "Tools" tab.

I'm using GMT, and I'm sure it's not the airport, because it's a stock airport, and other planes are moving in and out too.  I'm not sure that they are actually NOT flying, but they don't depart at the given time.
