FSX California Central Coast (Revision 2) Scenery

California Central Coast Scenery. Revision #2 to CCCFSX.ZIP. Previous installation of CCCFSX.ZIP and CCCFSXR1.ZIP are required. This revision includes some AI flight plans for the CCC area plus a few minor fixes. By Al Wheeler.

This was primarily intended as an upload of AI flight plans for the CCC area. In the process of working on these I found a few things to fix therefore I'm calling this revision #2.

The AI flight plans consist of 99 AI flights between all 8 CCC airports. There are departures every 5 minutes for an hour or so beginning at 0000Z and repeating every 2,4,6 or 8 hours depending on length of flight resulting in fairly continuous AI activity at the 8 airports. I used these flight plans for testing AFCAD files and tried to reflect real life activity where possible except for the inappropriate use of big iron airline A/C here and there.

In playing around with the flight plans I noticed a few glitches in six of the AFCAD files that needed attention. I also repaired some flashing textures at SBP and SBA airports and have included those modified files.

This ZIP contains the following files:

NOTE:

FLIGHT PLANS
These flight plans utilize only default FSX aircraft to keep them universally useable. If you don't want to use the flight plans you can just skip installing Traffic_CCC_FSX.BGL but I recommend that you install the other files to correct some minor scenery glitches in CCCFSX.

I took a few liberties with these flights of course. You will find some airline traffic at KSBA, KSMX, KSBP and KPRB. These A/C (737, CRJ700, Airbus A321 etc.) are interesting to watch on the relatively short runways so I couldn't resist including them.

All but touch and go and airline traffic flight plans are set to 10%. T&G's are set to 15% and airline traffic to 20%. You can set the general aviation traffic density slider to between 10 and 14% for flights without any T&G's or set it to 15% or greater to include T&G's. Setting the airline traffic density slider to 20% or greater will add airline traffic A/C to the mix at CCC.

The flight plans were made using AI FLIGHT PLANNER by Don Grovestine; a very nice utility available at avsim. With this utility you could easily edit these flight plans if you like.

INSTALLATION:

Move the 6 AFD files (AFX2_XXXX.BGL) into your CCCAFD\SCENERY directory allowing overwrites.

Move the SMX_XML10.BGL, CCC_LIB10B.BGL, SBAAP.BGL and SBPAP.BGL files into your CCCFSX\SCENERY directory allowing overwrites.

Move the ACSMX.BGL file into your CCCFSX\SCENERY directory also OR if you opted to separate the static A/C scenery files move it into your designated CCCFSX AI scenery directory allowing overwrite.

Move the Traffic_CCC_FSX.BGL into your FSX\SCENERY\WORLD\SCENERY directory.
