Hi , wow , quick reply ! :) OK traffic it is. The only problem I see (because Im just learning Traffic) , is liveries . I try to use the AI / Models aircraft , but dont see a way to select liveries like the AI setup... Im probably just not far enough along yet ...:) As soon as I get a workable traffic pattern I'll be sure to send it ... also going to try out my webspace and see if I can put up some screenshots of CYVR Cheers, Syd ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Take Surveys.
