SABA not working in FS9

[Jellis]

I just purchased and loaded the St Maarten, Juliana, SABA complete for FS9. Both TNCM and TFFJ work just fine and look amazing. However, SABA does not work at all. If I try and start at a gate, the Island and everything else is above the aircraft, and the AI traffic I created for the airport also show up under the island. The only way to see the airport correctly is to start on a runway, but then none of the AI traffic show up and if I try to takeoff, the airplane sinks below the runway and crashes.

Just for clarification, I have tried all the suggestions previously offered on the forum and tried re-installing the addon several times. There are no other conflicting addons installed, and this is the only SABA airport running.

Also, when I try to load/start a flight at SABA airport in FS9, it says Ignore in parenthesis after the name of the airport. I am sure it is not the ZABA file that is in the folder also.

I am attaching a screenshot for verification.

Please advise and thanks for your help in advance.

Just a follow-up to the previous post.

I had a chance to try a flight to SABA from TFFJ. If I fly to the airport, then the airport works correctly, and AI traffic will land at the airport.
However, I still can't start a flight at SABA.

Thanks in advance for all the help.

The file that is important for the correct startup elevation is /FS9/scenery/world/scenery/AF2_SABA_flytampa_dummy.bgl

This Afcad file sets alt="60.0M" and is loaded before any other Afcads by being in the world/scenery/ folder.

Check that this file is present and that you have no other Afcad files for SABA on your system. There used to be some duplicate Afcad checker for FS9 if I recall correctly.

Hi Everyone,
just wanted to let you know that I found the problem with the SABA airport.

When the installer installed the complete package, it somehow installed (2) of the dummy versions of the SABA airport in the World Scenery file for FS9. After deleting one of those files, that resolved the issues.

Thanks for all the help,
Jeff
