I am looking for a program to put static aircraft on some airbases that I fly in and out of. Does anyone have a program that can do this. Also I have some aircraft that I fly that I got from here, but I really would like to use them as some of my static aircraft, does anyone know if I can do this, and/or where can I get static military aircraft, especially B-52's for static aircraft.

Interesting idea that I haven't tried........static aircraft!

I've never seen a resource for what you're looking for, but I do have a suggestion.

Using Lee Swordy's Traffic Tools, build a series of flight plans using the airbase and aircraft of your choice. Put them on a weekly schedule flying to a nearby airbase and returning immediately thereafter. Stagger the flights so that only one aircraft is gone from your airbase at a time. This will make it look like there are always a large number of aircraft parked at your airbase with minimal traffic going in and out.

Good luck!

Hi,
Try out this program its called M98toBGL. It converts mdl files into .api files that you can place in your scenery with fssc or other programs.
You can get M98toBGL from here:http://www.simviation.com/fsdesign_scenery5.htm

And FSSC from here:
http://www.simviation.com/fsdesign_scenery1.htm

For M98toBGL you have to download fs98 or fs2000 planes (therefore fs98 planes work better with M98toBGL).

Greetings from GVA
