SAK Sea Plane Bases

Installation Guide

NOTE:  You must have FSADDON's Tongass Fjords for FSX and the Orbx FTX NA Blue SAK packages installed to utilize this enhancement

This docoument describes how to install the SAK AI Floatplanes Package and to add two additional textures to the
AI DHC-2 Aircraft folder.

1.  After unzipping to a temporary folder, move the file Traffic_SAK_FSX_floatplanes.bgl to your simulators \Scenery\World\Scenery folder.

2.  Move the SAK Sea Plane Bases folder to your simulators \Addon Scenery folder and add it to your Scenery Library at a higher priority that any Orbx scenery.

3.  Install the Additional Textures for the AI DHC-2 Aircraft:
    Move the two texture folders, Alaska Air and IslandsRUs to your simulators \SimObjects\Airplanes\AI_Floatplane_DHC-2_Beaver_TFX\ folder

4.  Backup the simulators \SimObjects\Airplanes\AI_Floatplane_DHC-2_Beaver_TFX\aircraft.cfg file  

5.  Then edit the aircraft.cfg file and make the following change:

(Add copy the text below to the bottom of all of the [fltsim.n] entries where "n" is the next consecutive number. 

[fltsim.XX]  \\REPLACE THE XX WITH NEXT CONSECUTIVE NUMBER
title=AI DHC-2 Beaver Floats TF Alaska Air
sim=Monocoupe
model=
panel=
sound=
texture=Alaska Air
atc_airline=Alaska Airline
atc_id=N587AK
atc_heavy=0
atc_parking_codes=
atc_parking_types=DOCK
ui_manufacturer=AI Floatplane
ui_type=DHC-2 Beaver Floats TF
ui_variation="Alaska Air"

[fltsim.XX]  \\REPLACE THE XX WITH NEXT CONSECUTIVE NUMBER
title=AI DHC-2 Beaver Floats TF Islands R Us
sim=Monocoupe
model=
panel=
sound=
texture=IslandsRUs
atc_airline=Islands R Us
atc_id=N164DT
atc_heavy=0
atc_parking_codes=
atc_parking_types=DOCK
ui_manufacturer=AI Floatplane
ui_type=DHC-2 Beaver Floats TF
ui_variation="Islands R Us"

6. Save the revised aircraft.cfg file.

The following float bases will have two AI Beavers operating:

2Y3, 3Z9, 5Z1, A27, 7K2, BQV, ELV, FNR, PAJ1, TKL, EXI, HWI, PYL, OOH

If you should go to one of these bases to observe traffic, do not occupy a parking slot.  If you do, the
aircraft shceduled for that slot will not appear.  There is usually a departure beginning at 1900Z.
