The biggest problem I found was locating your airport in the FSX folders/files. I installed the FSX SDK from Disk 1 of the Deluxe set and looked for a list of the folder contents, found none. However, I found an
fs10.Airports .dat file in the following location after install and update from MS was added.
C:\Program Files\Microsoft Games\Microsoft Flight Simulator X SDK\SDK\Environment Kit\Traffic Toolbox SDK
The file can be edited with notepad. I used `edit/find` to locate the two airports I was initially interested in making adjustments at. After installing Just Flight, Traffic (FSX Compatible) Liverpool had extended parking, some planes where half buried in buildings and the main runway was tarmac at both ends but grass in the middle. Humberside had the same building problems and some taxiway markings on the main (long) runway tarmac. I`ve adjusted the buildings problem so far but nothing else. This is how I located the folders/files, its explained in the download, this is from the view of a personal user too (me).
From the file I got.....
EGNJ,53.5
74444540,-0.35

Using the windows calculator, I got the following results from the 2nd figure in the Humberside Airfield data......

179.65/3.75=47.90

Humberside =
Folder 0501 (5.875 and 1.5 respectively), trust me, it works.......
Now, to repeat this for Liverpool.....EGGP,53.3
