Run-ways in Mission Builder

Postby vilik » Mon Jan 02, 2006 8:37 pm

Hello everyone and happy new year.  I have a question.  I have installed number of new runways from Maskrider files and also have activated them.  They show in Free Flight and I can fly from there.  But however they are NOT available in Mission Builder.
Could you help please.
Thanks,
Vilik

Adding Airfields to Mission Builder
You can import numerous airfields into CFS2 that you can fly from using Free Flight but you won't be able to use them in Mission Builder without a little extra effort.

To add new airfields for use in  Mission Builder you must first add them to the airbases.dat file in the folder INFO. The airbases.dat file is a simple text file and can be opened with Notepad.  While much of the information shown there for the existing airbases can be copied for your new entry, you do need the correct longitude, latitude, altitude and heading. I have found that it is best to take the longitude and latitude from the center of the airstrip.

To get that information go into Free Flight and select the new airfield you want to add to Mission Builder. As you
