SVVA as it appears in FS9 its for only one way 28,I mean only one direction from 28 to 10 landings and take off shows in fs,BUT in real life they use both, it can land in 28 as in 10 in fact 80% of the take off are in the 10 instead 28 depends where the plane is heading , the wind direction,traffic,and even they use the runway as taxiway going all the way down thru the runway then turn at the end 10 side turn, then turn as a base off toward 28,pilots' can't use the real taxiway because there are several buildings

I'm going to go try it now. I'll set user weather with winds that will make using runway 10 the only safe option. I'll come back and report.

We're used to your English by now... and it's better than some of the chat-speak

Pssst . . . secret (don't tell anyone) after loading FS9 weather, change the sim-time for it to take effect thus permitting FS9 ATC to assign correct runway.

Arlot, the last thing you should be doing is saying sorry about your English. 95% of English people cannot even be bothered to learn how to order a cup of coffee in the language of the country they are visiting, "do you speak English" is far easier to say. I have no idea what the percentage of English people can speak a second language to conversation level, but I would bet you can count it on one hand. I work for a German company. At my station alone, 21 co-workers, 17 can speak conversational English. As a nation, England lags well behind most other nations and the reason............basically, we can't be bothered, or as the younger generation would can't  today, "carnt be bovvered"

I half agree with you about the language thing but the problem is that the UK, USA, Australia, Canada and New Zealand all speak english. That is a very large amount of people speaking a common language which unfortunately has had the effect of forcing (through commerce) other countries to adopt our language.

This is not an excuse though and people who are bilingual live longer or don't suffer strokes or something like that. ::)

Great news, that should off set my consumption of German beer and Schnitzels. :D :D

PS you may well be right, but if you live in a country, then learing the language is really a must. Here in Germany, my wife is a teacher, and it sort of defeats the object of parent evenings when she has to use a child to translate for the parents. "Your child is a nightmare to teach", and they sit thier all smiles and pleased at what the child has just "told" them. Just a small example though.
