Default Taxiing to Parking in the North 40 -- Too cool!

The best scenario starts you over Ripon, and you fly up the tracks to
the airport, just like the real thing. Unfortunately, while there *is*
traffic, they're not all flying up the tracks, so you can't practice
maintaining position (and thus there's no one to follow, which makes
getting lost possible) -- but otherwise the experience is very, very
realistic.


If I could just step out of lurkerdom for a moment...


In case you're not aware, it is possible to edit or add flight plans for
the artifical intelligence (AI) aircraft in FS2004. I'm no expert in
this, but there is a tutorial here :

You may find you can re-create your arrival scenario quite accurately.
BTW, I'm _very_ jealous of your simulator rig.

On a side note, whilst I understand the antipathy aimed at mxsmanic in
this newsgroup because of his general attitude, I'm sure that there are
many lurkers such as me who actually benefit greatly for the responses
to his seemingly inane questions. I am unable to fly for real for a
variety of personal reasons and so have to content myself with the
simulator, and many of the questions he asks are ones that have also
ocurred to me. You may think they are more appropriate to a simulator
newsgroup, but I'd much rather come here to see how things are done for
real.
