On my FS2002, there is no Sawmill (SWB) VOR, any way to add it?

The good old days: Delta L-1011s at MSY

no, not that I know of. FS is missing alot of VORs and the data that MS FS uses data from 2000.

I heard that information on the VATSIM fourms

hope it helps

AFCAD 2, by Lee Swordy, will let you add VORs to FS2004. For FS2002 you need version 1.4 but I've never used it so I don't know if it lets you add VORs. You can get it at http://www.flightsim.com .

I think Afcad lets you add the VOR signal (it will appear in the GPS), but not the visible structure. You have to add that using something else.

Does that really matter? I can't say I look out for VOR structures when I'm flying, in fact I can't remember the last time I noticed one. I just want to use them for navigation. Smile

Same here, but I had to answer the picky people (are there any?) who want to see every detail at the right place. Smile

Now you mention it, I'd have done the same if someone else had given my answer. Smile

Picky? Nit-picky, if you don't mind. I've worked hard for that title.
