FSDG – Kastellorizo X
AI AIRCRAFT AND SHIPS
Due to the small runway and tiny apron area, it is not possible to make FSX AI land
and depart there in a realistic way. If you use traffic addons that cover LGKJ, you will
probably see AI aircraft trying to land on the airport, but usually they fail to do so. We
hope that the next generation of flight simulators can handle AI on airports like
Kastellorizo.
To give you AI traffic on/around the island, we included AI ships though. The Meis
Express, a small passenger ferry between Kas/Turkey and Kastellorizo is commuting
several times a day. You will be able to hear its horn when it leaves the harbor in Kas
or on the island. Some diving and fishing boats as well as a luxury Yacht are circling
the island. Finally, the big ferry from Kos arrives once a day and fills the small harbor
almost completely.
The ferries have fixed schedules at which they travel. The Meis Express should arrive
in the morning around 10am and leave at 2pm, the ferry from Kos is scheduled to
arrive at 4pm and leave one hour later. Don't rely too much on those schedules
though...
To see the AI ship traffic, your “Ships and ferries” traffic settings have to be set to
10% or higher.
FREE FLIGHTS
To make exploring the scenery and its features easier for you, we included pre-saved
flights at several different locations and times for you. Just open the free flight menu
and select “load”, then scroll down to Kastellorizo X and select one of the saved
flights. They start at the airport, down at the harbor, in the air or on one of the 3
helipads in the scenery. They are all saved using default aircraft, but you are free to
select the aircraft of your choice before taking off.
Please read the short briefings before loading the flights to know what to expect.
