Salut Allan Thanks a lot! I just found a little snag at YSRN_STRAHAN.. I think runway heading at YSRN should read 18/36 - so arrival runway at YSRN is 36 Is that correct?
Another thing: I can not log-in direct to the official GAAR 2017 Forum - they don't know me??? they will me getting to know... HAHA!! sooooon! Cheers Urs

cheers Urs,
I'll have a think about that - away for a few days but I should have it corrected by the end of the week.
It's a different forum board so it won't know anyone from the main bluegrass forum.
Looking forward to your screenshots.
Allan

Urs, if you can remember your login details from GAAR 2016, you can use that.
I hit register and it remembered my email address, then hit forgot password, email was sent to me, put in new password and all good from there.
Rob

While doing preliminary work for the traditional end-of-rally firework display, I've made an unfortunate discovery:
The expected landing runway at YCBG Cambridge is 12;
In real life YCBG Cambridge has 09/27, 12/30, and 14/32;
The (minimalist) default scenery for FS9 has 09/27 and 14/32, but NOT 12/30;
A quick trawl of the web has failed to show any suitably updated freeware AF2 or scenery files.
HELP!
Does anyone know of a suitable package?
Does anyone fancy making a suitable package?
Alternatively, I can probably knock up and upload a (quick-and-dirty) AF2 file with roughly correct taxiways and apron, and appropriate exclude files.

Hi John,
Speaking for Allan as he is away until next weekend.
Firstly thank you for preparing the fireworks, most appreciated.
Allan and I have previously discussed the difference between various sims and their versions, naturally there are some small variations.
When I do the flight plans I use the official Australian AIP which is runway 12, so FS9 has a small error there where as FSX which was used for this GAAR shows the correct runway direction, obviously an update.
I would suggest that those with FS9 just use runway 14 and the fireworks showing up between the two runway directions if that can be done.
This will be the last GAAR using FSX for flight planning, next years And all future GAAR's will be done using P3D v3 so it will be interesting to see how that works out.
Thanks John Rob

Rob,
I have registered and I assume no Roster will appear until after Allan returns?

Well that's a good start if I had read the NOTAM I would not have needed to submit the last post.

Yes David, there is a lot of "Cumulus Grantis" along the MacPherson Ranges, not a place for low flying. Hope you have a spare aircraft back at Archerfield. :-)
