I installed pretty much every package on the World of AI site save for the few with the broken links.

My airports are very busy but considering I have over 400 packages installed is their a possibility that some flight plans will not show up? Like Delta pushing Korean Air out of Los Angeles? So Korean Air never lands at LAX?

Sorry...just trying to learn about it all!

Also was wondering about AI Smooth. I have found that I have a line of 5 planes sometimes landing on the same runway about 30 seconds apart. Is this normal for real airports?

Sometimes the AI have to go around for another landing becuase they are too bunched up.

KJFK, KLGA, KLAX, DFW... most of the major hubs may have up to 5-10 lined up for landing depending on what the schedule looks like.

as to having too many AI?? if your airport AFCADS (files that basically layout the airport grounds and parking arrangements) do not allow Korean Air to land at BOSTON LOGAN, then you will never see that airline at that airport, no matter if there is a flight plan for it. The plane will go to the airport, 'see' that there is no parking from the afcad, and go back to where it came from.

other problem with having 400 packages of WOAI installed. I am sure that you have multiple airplanes on the same flight plan at the same time lined up in "military" fashion. (see pic), you have duplicate flight plans that need to be cleaned out.

Yes it is perfectly ok to have your Monitor bursting with planes flittering about, but not when they are 3 inches apart and you have 15 going from Dallas to Boston.

Afcad files do not control AI in that way.

Your statement could be interpreted as "you have to modify your Afcad to see XYZ Airline at that airport". That is simply not true.

If Korean Airlines lands at Logan and there is a parking spot open that is large enough for the plane, it will taxi to that spot and park there.

No matter what Afcad information FS has, default or addon.

thats mighty funny, because before I updated KCHS... i had a lot of AI in and out all day long, sometimes having to wait 4 in line to take off. then after I updated it, ZERO!!! nothing, natta. in or out. and I did "NOT" mess with the TrafficXXXXXXX.bgl to delete flight plans either. they just stopped and now it is barren 100% of the time.
