And now my 86CL (Ernst Field) has been approved, so that too should be in the next official release of X-Plane.

Like you, zengei, I'm taking a little airport-building break while I feed my obsession with KSP. I'll be back at it soon enough.

Looks great! Congratulations!

I'm pretty sure the default Cessna 172 has a working AP too. In fact, most planes for X-Plane have an autopilot; it's unusual to find one that does not. It helps to use the same autopilot hotkeys for every plane you fly. E.g., I've set up "CTL Space" as my engage/disengage toggle; I use &q...

I've only had time to do one flight in KSP 1.0, but I was very impressed; it's come a long way since I last played a few months ago. Love the new aerodynamics. I might try your mod! Would it work with a yoke? Back on topic: two of my Gateway submissions have been approved! 1. KGCN - Grand Canyon Nat...

Ah, OK. Thanks for the info, zengei. And yes, I agree, we ought to be able to fix navaid stuff using WED. Oh well.

Could those of us who construct "Lego Brick" airports for the X-Plane Scenery Gateway help? I haven't tried yet, but can't we alter frequencies and such using WED?

Thanks for the answers, Tim! Very reassuring.

Peaware is a great thing. I'm glad you're supporting and improving it. Thanks!

Thanks for your reply. Oh wow, so it is MSL, not AGL. The chart does say "all altitudes are MSL unless stated otherwise," so I guess I should've divined that myself. And yes, I recall Keith's comments on MOAs in one of his workshops. I dimly recall that he might have fighter jets zipping a...

What a great idea! I will lose horribly, but I'll still participate. The only issue for me is that it's rather a long flight, at some 200-plus nm, and that will take a while in the aircraft I normally fly on PE -- a Piper Archer. Maybe I should live dangerously and bust out my Bonanza? Assuming I do...

Thanks for your reply. Next time I'll take your advice and try filing VFR more than twice. Later tonight I might try a short helicopter ride, and I'll see if I can get Peaware to log that. For what it's worth, the wind at Rancho was a mild 11 knots, so maybe my NOAA plugin is working okay. Perhaps t...
