Using FSSC, I have created a reasonable facsimile of the Great Falls International Airport, home of the Montana Air National Guard. I will be including this scenery, and a few others, in the update package for the freeware Alpha Sim F-106 Delta Dart. I figured since I did a paint for the Montana Air National Guard, might as well give the plane a place to fly out of. Will be doing Florida and California ANG paints too...and will be creating reasonable facsimiles of those ANG bases as well.
Anyhooo...to the crux of my question. Great Falls has 3 run ways, 3/21 which is 10500 feet, 7/25 which is 4293 feet and 16/34 which is 5723 feet. The plane starts at the end of 25....which is just barely long enough for the F-106 to get to take off speed. I would like for the plane to start up at the end of 21...which would give it plenty of space for take off and allow the simmer to see the hangars and buildings placed in the approximate position of the ANG facilities (buildings are from Cees Donkers API collections...very nice).
How do I get the plane to default to the end of 21? I can select the runway through the advanced position selection thingie, but I would like to have the plane default to that start up position. This is in Free Flight, not QC or Mission Builder....so the runway data info does not influence this in the least...or at least I don't think it does.
