Daytona Beach Int'l Airport

Daytona Beach Int'l Airport (KDAB), Florida (FL). Includes two versions, one with the crosswind runway operating and one without. Includes corrected taxiways, helipad, added fuel trucks, support vehicle road and other improvements. By Ray Smith.

These 2 BGL files were designed with the latest version of ADE (v1.26) and made only for the FSX default airport: one with the Crosswind rwy operating, now activated by ADE where all 3 rwy's will be used for takeoff/landing and one as default: assigned parking with extra parking, Taxiway's W5, N8, N9, P8 and T corrected and the taxisigns corrected for them, helipad, extra fuel trucks, support vehicle roads rebuilt and many other improvements, airport views are from the roof of the control tower (when in tower view) please view the readme before installation.

There are 2 BGL files: KDAB_ADE_RS.BGL and KDAB_ADE_CW_RS.BGL. The 'KDAB_ADE_CW_RS.BGL' version is with the Xwind rwy activated, the other version KDAB_ADE_RS.BGLis without parking is the same in both.

• NOTE: When using ATIS with the KDAB_ADE_CW_RS.BGL file you will hear the fake rwy's, this is the method used in activating Xwind rwy's created by Jim Vile and should be ignored or if preferred use the version KDAB_ADE_RS.BGL.

To Install:

1. Simply take the BGL file of your choice and place it into: Flight Simulator X/Addon Scenery/scenery folder.
2. Start up the Flight sim and the changes will be present.

• IMPORTANT NOTE: PLEASE ONLY USE ONE BGL FILE AT A TIME. I.E. Make sure there is only ONE 'KDAB.BGL' FILE in the Addon Scenery/scenery folder at any time, remove/delete any other KDAB.bgl to avoid incorrect parking.

To Uninstall:

1. Delete/remove the BGL file and the default will then be active.

Jim Vile for his Technique that activates crosswind runways.

TIP: When at KDAB in tower view: go to your control settings and look for the "View track/pan Toggle". Allocate a keyboard key stroke to it (i allocated a button on my X52 controller) this will unlock the user aircraft, then you can use the hat switch to pan 360 degrees around the airport, hitting the key stroke again (in my case a button) will return you to the user aircraft position.

Enjoy and happy flying.
