Wrong Airport
« on: August 21, 2018, 06:07:31 pm »
Hi,

I've set up a flight from KLAX to EHAM (FSX) and when I hit CTRL-Shift-F12 it gives me gates for KLAX Helipad.
What did I wrong?
See attached Pic.

Thanks for your help

You haven't read the GSX manual, page 24, the chapter which explains the airport_visibility command, which is required to deal with scenery developers that add auxiliary airports with fake ICAO codes, usually helicopter bases, seaplane bases, etc.

Just to be clear, that fake helipad is not part of our KLAX scenery, it must have arrived with some other scenery. Strange the ICAO is JKFX, but the airport name is "Los Angeles Helipad" but, in any case, we don't have any helipads in our KLAX scenery.

I will add the lines and see if/how it works.
