Want to be immortalized on the web site?

    Want to be immortalized on the web site?

    I need a volunteer (or two) to meet me on VATSIM so I can get a screenshot of the WestWind AI livery displayed by Squawkbox.  This is for a page on the web site that will describe the steps to setting up Squawkbox to show other WestWind aircraft in the AI liveries created by Ken G.  Squawkbox users preferred since I know how to get you to configure it to show as WestWind (you do not need to have the WWAL AI traffic installed) if you haven't already done so.  But if you're an FSINN user and know how to set the airline for your selected aircraft to "WestWind" that might work.  Actually it would be useful to know if that works.

    Speaking of FSINN, if anyone knows how to set that up to display WestWind aircraft, I would appreciate it if you could send me a description of the steps required with screenshots of any option dialogs that would clarify the procedure. 

    If this works in FSINN with FS9, does it also work with FSINN+FSX?  I know we have WWAL AI traffic for FSX, but I've never used FSINN and do not wish to install it at this time.

    I'll be online at KDFW terminal B around 2:45 CDT (1945Z).  It should only take about 5 minutes.  Thanks!

    Well if I had seen this post about 6 hours ago I would have been there.  I thought we just showed as VIP on SB.  I have pulled up to a few WWA on various ramps but have never seen our livery.....only VIP.  Thanks Mark.

    Three things need to happen to see the WestWind colors:  you need to install the WWAL AI traffic package, you need to add a configuration file to Squawkbox (both files available from the scenery page), and the other pilot has to have the airline for the selected aircraft set to "WestWind Airlines".  As I understand it, Squawkbox tells other Squawkbox clients which airline you are, and if your Squawkbox knows to display a particular livery for that airline, it will do so.  I'll be adding a page with specific instructions on how to do all this.  At some point I want to add an image to the page showing what you will see when all this comes together.
