Multiple runways for landing and deparating

Therefore, in summary, during most of the year, PHNL runway ops are as follows:
8L - landing and interisland takeoffs
8R - International, heavy, and mainland-bound takeoffs
4R - Occasional landing
4L - GA use only
26L - LDA approach on non-tradewind days.
26R - takeoffs on non-tradewind days.

One thing to add...late at night (Military/cargo ops) they prefer to have us land on 4R, I assume for noise abatement. I also noticed during RWY 26 ops that the Hawaiian inter-island flights sidestep off the LDA 26L approach to 26R.

Hi virtuali
I have just recently bought Honolulu for FSX and it sits on top of all other scenery.
I'm also experiencing 4R being the sole runway in use and after about 10 different flights I am always asked to take off or land on 4R. All approaching traffic is vectored onto 4R too so I'm seeing significant go arounds. I hear what you say about the approaches being the deafult approaches but I'm certainly not experiencing multiple runways being in use for takeoffs and landings.
I don't know how to tinker or change AFCADs so I am only reporting on what the FSDT installation has done at Honolulu.
In your post above you attach a new AFCAD to fix the problem (AP_PHNL.BGL). Having just bought Honolulu FSX in April 2011 should I try the AFCAD in your message above?
I can't find a file of that name so not sure where I would place the above AFCAD file and whether it would replace the existing one? What would my current AFCAD file be called?
Thanks for your help and thanks for a great Honolulu :)

This thread is 1 year old, the scenery has been updated a couple of times, and that AFCAD is not needed. I'll have a look at the current AFCAD, to see if that bug crept in again.

Interesting. I thought I was going crazy. I've had PHNL for over a year, and it was working fine with multiple runways. I just recently reinstalled to a new system I built, and now I'm seeing the same thing... 4R being the only available for landing or departing. I downloaded the latest version of PHNL from FSDreamteam, so I didn't use the installer and updates from before. Perhaps this updated AFCAD is needed, although I would think it's already included in the latest build. Not sure.
I forgot about this updated AFCAD, so to fix it for now, I edited the existing AFCAD with AFX, and forced the traffic onto 8L and 8R. I would rather get it back to the multiple runways working.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
John

Please, DO NOT use this file with the current version of the scenery, because it will make the ground flickering again. As I've said in my previous message, we'll have a look at the new AFCAD to check for the runways.
