Great work!  Smooth, easy install. (Other than having to recompile for FSX, so GA will show up).  Painting and models look great also.

Is there a way for the airline packages to override the default airlines?  I wanted to keep the small props flying, but I would like to get rid of the Orbits and Pacificas, etc. from flying alongside the Southwests, Uniteds, etc.
I noticed that in the airlines I installed, in the cfg, the planes are setup to use the no_refl.  There is also a reflective model folder for most planes, if not all, that I've installed.  What's the difference between the reflective and no_reflective models?
Thanks for any replies.

There is no way for  WoAI to 'override' the default airlines.  But you do have a couple of choices:

**Substitute-You could edit the 'AircraftAircraft.txt' file from the deafult traffic file, substituting WoAI aircraft for the default airliners. (See the readme.htm from Traffic Tools v2.02 for help in 'substituting aircraft' if needed)

**Disable the default traffic file and use the FSX Default GA traffic from Default FSX and FS2004 GA Traffic Files. (Note: the 'Traffic_FSX_Default_GA_*.bgl' files are in FS9 format. The easiest way to incorperate them is to use AIFPC's batch compile of the .txt source sets into FSX format)

Don't know about the reflective.....

What was your secret to adding AI traffic to FSX? I tried WoAI, but could never get it to work

Dave, thanks.  I'll take a look at those two.
Esselback, for me it was simple and easy.  I made sure to install packages for airlines I know visit a certain airports.  The ones I installed showed up with no problem.

The reflective model folder are in the packages to cater for reflective textures that are made for some airlines.
Usually Airlines that use a metal color are some times inplemented in the sim as reflective textures.
Since we don't want to install a model seperately for reflective textures we've included the reflective folder within the aircraft folder

Project AI also offers a package that will allow you to put the default prop traffic into the simulator seperate from the jets, with more realisitic callsigns. It is in their library archive.  Wink

However, PAI's download server is down and out right now. Sad
