I think that depends on the airport not the traffic.

It does indeed and as far as O'hare goes, my traffic seemed to park at their correct gates.

awesome pictures, but there is one thing that's wrong with your traffic, the GA traffic, there is no GA traffic in O'Hare. We Northside Chicago pilots have KPWK. There is the occasional Biz Jet but no GA, O'Hare is too busy and overwhelmed to handle GA traffic. KMDW does have GA though... Nice shots though.

Well that's default traffic for you, sneaks up on you "unawares". It may be there because I didn't populate the airport with all the available AI.

Gents,

I rent and fly out to the Chicago area frequently.  The Landing fees are not much more than $10 or $20 for GA aircraft at most airports and FBO's (Fixed-based Operators) almost always waived it if fuel is purchased.  However, In a jet the landing fees vary from type and size; so its more expensive to fly a jet into any of the airports in the area.  But the reasons for a lot of the GA aircraft not present at large class B airports like KORD are FBO services and FAA ATC clearance requirements.  Even under VFR, a GA pilot must operate with the same protocal as on an IFR flight plan with the same time, communication, and clearance restrictions at a class B airport like KORD.  Most GA pilots like to do things without too many restrictions and there is a lot of hassle when going into a big place like KORD in a GA aircraft.

Anyway, non of this applies to FS but just FYI...

Hi, the clouds are a set from FEX (http://www.flight1.com/products.asp?product=flt1fex) and the AI is from the WOAI (http://www.world-of-ai.com/).

The AI was designed for FS9 however and needs converting for FSX use. Good information on the tools available can be found in this thread (http://forums.avsim.net/dcboard.php?az=show_topic&forum=121&topic_id=446699&mode=full). Most important will be the WOAI installer and AIFPC for converting the AI bgl's from FS9 to FSX format.

Have fun.

Really good shots.
I will have to check out the FEX program for the clouds.
