Hi. How can I remove a windsock on a third-party freeware airport? A few months ago i downloaded a small airport from flightsim.to, but now I have two windsocks right next to each other pointing in different directions (180 degrees). Remove it completely, or at least show the correct direction like the msfs windsock. I contacted the airport developer, but no reaction… Thanks!
Hi there,
I’ve never done this for a third-party airport, but you will have to download the SDK and create another airport for that airport.
I don’t know how much you know about the SDK, but you can follow the tutorial here:
Once you’ve created the project, you have to create an exclusion polygon around the windsock. Then export the airport and drop that into your Community folder along with the other airport.
Then, here’s the part I’ve never done, you will have to turn on the package reordering tool and make sure that your new “airport” has a higher priority than that third-party airport.
I’m not an expert on this, but I hope this helps!
O.K. Thanks! I will try it…
