You still questioning default ATC idiocy? Roll Eyes

Yes I agree and wish I hadn't started flying from airport to airport in alphabetical order :/ I'm not even out of the A's yet and I'm downloading airports   Cheesy

where's hjam? doesn't come up on my airport list and not even on google?
 

May the Mynd be with you.
So far my number of landings either passenger or pilot equal my number of takeoffs, but that is due to change Smiley

My bad "HAJM" Its situated in a nice little valley on IFR approach to runway 130. the airport is incomplete like so many I'm finding out. I Still greased the landing at 120 knots with plenty of runway to spare, probably because I was flying a military jet Cheesy

Do you know of any freeware downloads that fix's all the Airports and updates them?

It depends from the complexity of the real thing and your willingness to commit to the project.

A small airport with one single runway and apron, and a small web of taxiways... less than a day with ADE9X. Cool

More complexity means, of course, more time.

This is sadly true. A project of redoing in a passable way all the airports and/or small strips that in the whole FS world M$ left as a single runway would be titanic at the very least. Undecided
