As it is, I assume there's no point, as I don't have MakeRunways installed in XP11. (Can it be??).

Is there any way (and again, since AFAIK MakeRunways won't work in X-Plane, I am guessing not, but it's worth asking the question, just in case) to have PF3 read the runway database for X-Plane instead of FS9 or FSX? Since discovering the joys of X-Plane 11 last summer, I have hardly flown FS9/FSX since! (I am SO happy there's a PF3 plugin for XP11!!! I wish someone would get FDC working there too).

PF3 can only use the files created by MakeRwys I'm afraid

I don't suppose you (or anyone) would know if PF3 could be made to work with MakeRunways for X-Plane, from Oncourse's point of view?

The blurb talks about 'the other ATC programme', but...

I don't believe the utility you're talking about actually provides all the required files but if you'd like to ZIP and email the files it does create, plus any documentation you have that comes with the utility, I will take a look

OK, that'd be good Dave. I'll install it at some stage this week and send you the files as you suggest. Thank you.
