YOU DON'T HAVE TO YELL.

A quick answer to your questions.

Best AI Traffic Pack: Project AI is the best. Lots of decent looking aircraft with a huge array of airlines. www.projectai.com

Walkways: Some default detailed airports have them. You have to turn dynamic scenery up to high. Most others you see are through addon scenery files.

Best graphics card: Depends on your preference and machine. The best on the market are the nVidia Geforce 6800 and the ATI Radeon X800.

For project AI you need to download the PAI installer, now version 2.5 http://www.projectai.com/packages/installer.php

You can then download the Airline packs you wish to install and the installer will do everything for you! http://www.projectai.com/packages/installers.php

I recomend not installing every single pack like I did last time as it can affect performance at the larger airports 8)

Hope this helps

You have a low frame rate. Your card is having to work extra hard to process all that extra info. It can do it but it takes too long. A fast CPU usually smooths things out in FS.
