Does anyone know how (if it is even possible) to add ai aircraft to a particular airport through MTX.  For example, at KHYA (Hyannis) there are never any flights coming or going.  In the real world, Hyannis is a busy airport with hourly flights to Boston, the Islands etc.

I'd like to increase traffic and add ai aircraft to that airport if it's possible.  Thanks in advance for any info.

The below in quotes is from MTX's website and from reading it I would say that you can add flights.  You need to note that to do this you need SDK installed, this is also noted below.  I have MTX, but I have never got around to trying to add any flights.  Hope the below helps.

Sounds like a big project.  I was hoping it would be as simple as editing a few cfg's.  Thanks for your reply though, I'll give it a go.

Hey since you have the same thing i have, does your AI planes look kinda crappy up close? Like Evergreen 747's, C-5's, all fighters, most military planes, and some smaller RJ's??

The planes that come with MTX are not great graphic representations of the planes.  If you are looking for graphics like the defaul FSX planes MTX will not provide that, MTX is mainly to populate an airport and the air, but must also not be a major hit on FPS.  The higher the graphic quality the bigger the hit on FPS.  MTX does have at least two graphic settings though, make sure your MTX installation is set for the highest setting, but as with all graphics, the higher the setting the bigger the hit on FPS.
