Simple GA Traffic provides six MSFS generic aircraft with 3 liveries each, at every airport and airfield in the MSFS world with a GA parking space.
ONLY WORKS IN AI OFFLINE MODE - does NOT work with Real Time Traffic.
Includes my previous ATC Generic Callout mod, so ATC will identify the Simple GA Traffic aircraft as:
Beech Baron
Beechcraft King Air
Cessna Citation
Pilatus PC12
Piper Cherokee
Okay, the "Piper Cherokee" looks more like a Beechcraft Bonanza, but three Beechcraft would be too much and maybe Cherokees are more common?
The flightplan was created with the excellent AI Flight Planner version 3.4.3.15 for MSFS2020 by Don Grovestine: http://stuff4fs.com/open.asp?Folder=AIFP&JS=TRUE
You can use AIFP to decompile the Traffic_GA.bgl in this package and add your own airports and aircraft if you wish.
You MUST set your AI traffic to AI Offline and Traffic Variety set to ULTRA. The two "Use Generic Plane Models" options can be either ON or OFF as required.
Set your Ground Traffic slider to 0, this will remove all generic airliners and airliners with random liveries. If you see no ground traffic at all with this setting, delete your rolling cache then re-set it (8gb is the default size). You should also see low flying GA aircraft buzzing the airports and airfields instead of airliners.
Simple GA Traffic will appear in your sim with the AI Traffic slider set from 10% up to 100%.
I have my slider set at 25% - this gives me a good balance between my airliner traffic and Simple GA Traffic, which means I don't see GA Traffic at airport gates with jetways.
Apologies, one more question. You mention this includes your other mod ATC Generic Callout which I use and like (thank you!) but does it also still modify the call-outs for non-GA airplanes (“Boeing”, “Airbus”, etc) ? I removed the Generic Callout mod, thinking I wouldn’t need it any more

It doesn't include airliners, but if you have ground traffic set to zero you won't need them.

This is amazing, it adds much needed life to the small airfields AIG does not cover. Thank you!

Ok, I have my answer, it's not your mod. CTD without the mod.

Thank you for checking and confirming aviateur, I hope you fix it soon.

I'm testing right now but since I installed your mod, it's the 4th time my sim crash. It's been a long time my sim is very stable no CTD, but now I get lot. So I removed the mod, will see if I still get CTD to be sure.

Is there any way to make this work better with Aerosofts Simple Traffic (which does not include GA traffic, afaik? At the moment, it feels like that and this mod are basically mutually exclusive, which is a shame.

I know what you mean, Simple Traffic will put an airliner in every available parking space regardless of it's size UNLESS you move the traffic slider right down. The minimum for Simple GA Traffic to appear is 10%, so I suggest you start at that and if it's too low, increase in 5% increments until you find the happy medium. Deleting the rolling cache before each re-launch of the sim really helps while testing like this.

Is there any chance for an AI online version? I would love to see some GA aircraft doing VFR things while still using real-time for the airliners.

Sorry the flight plans only work in offline mode. Asobo would need to create a GA traffic link to the Flightaware servers for live GA traffic to work.

Question. Why I can see the GA planes on the ground but not in the air ? While in the air, I see only the lights.
2 years ago
The GA planes are very small and you'll need to be within a mile of them to see them in any detail.

Many thanks for your contribution GA traffic!
The only thing I have observed is that the airplanes take a very long time to start (I have read your previous comments, regarding time, settings, etc.)! I look forward to next update!

Thank you imb12, I'm still undecided about the liveries but I'll look into it further.

Works great along with my AIG Traffic! Look forward to future updates with more liveries in the future.

Thank you Hamsa935, much appreciated. Most GA liveries are plain white with a stripe or two down the fuselage and they're quite boring to be honest, but I'll certainly consider it for a future update.

Oh boy, that is a very awaited mod. Thank you so much. So cool to see GA planes flying as AI traffic with AIG airliners traffic. I love it.

Does this add to or replace/override the built-in GA traffic flight plans?
2 years ago
It replaces the default flight plans.

ma sono statici o volano?

Sono normali aerei AI, quindi sì, volano.

Sorry you DO need to be in AI Offline mode, I'll amend the description above.
