In the real world, going around is the exception, NOT the rule.  Unfortunately, the AI in FS is a bit on the dumb side...  They must all work for the TSA.  ;)

I'd suggest around heavy metro. areas that you turn your AI down to 3-4%

keep in mind that the FS ATC will tell even sailplanes to go around

you might say that they're not the brightest blips on the radar screen... ;D

Though I'm not (that much) surprised on hearing this, I still can't help but wonder how did Micro$oft create a so perfect AS (Artificial Stupidity). :o

Never been, and seen what they say of the next release, never will. :(

I was told to go around 5 times with a Cessna once. Five is not much, but it is when you are flying at 120 knots and have to do the whole thing five times.

On a side note, have you guys tried the AI Separation program yet? It's a great utility that keeps control of all the AI. If an AI gets too close to the other one the program will immediately slew one of the planes 90 seconds BEHIND the other one. There will still be go arounds I'm guessing but not as much, and will be much more realistic as that is how real ATC lines up the traffic.

My hat off to all of the controllers in the world.

PS: If I recall correctly, the program will not affect you.

EDIT: I noticed that I never gave the info for those who wanted it.

Name is Flight Simulator AI Separation I found it over at avsim

Here is the description:

Flight Simulator A.I. traffic separation. With this tool you will be able to separate the traffic inbound to an airport defining a set of paremeters like minimun separation, desired separation, reduced separation zone, reducing the annoying go arounds that the AI engine of FS2004 can cause.

Thanks Armando Di Francesco

I never 'go around' - i'd rather land on a taxiway at the side of the runway.
