    He could always come over to the Dark Side!

    I'm curious as to why only ML, EN, MB and AV failed to load?  What would happen if the regions for the locations north of WOL CTR were deleted from the SNO_CTR file?

    This is a conspiracy to get people to go to "the dark side"???...

    Yep, we have a problem Houston.

    I can reproduce your issue when I load ml-sno_ctr.sct2. The data in the sector file for the YMML regions is exactly the same as used in vic_tma.sct2 which works.

    VRC does have performance issues when dealing with large region sections (parts disappear when you zoom in and out) which we avoid by breaking them down into smaller sections. This problem is similar and I suspect related to the large number of airports converted to regions in recent AIRACs which causes an overload in VRC and some aren't displayed.

    The only solution I have is to open a second window and load vic_tma.sct2 as the sector file. That allowed me to see the Melbourne taxiways and runways  when using ml-sno_ctr.sct2 in the main window.

    Never had this sort of issue before??

    Nick, let me know which sector file you are using. I can check to see if it contains the required region data for YMML.

    using following...ml-sno_ctr.sct2

    Nick, with Regions turned on you should see the controlled airspace for Melbourne, East Sale and Albury highlighted as well as the taxiways and runways for YMML, YMEN, YMMB, YMAY and YMAV. I'm assuming that you are using the vic_tma.sct2 sector file.

    Peter ...understood...when i go to Canberra everything is fine...only those airports i have mentioned are affected??...east sale is fine as well...

    Works fine for me on VRC. Can only suggest you check that you are using AIRAC1812 sector files

    It is with deep regret that i now advise i will no longer be participating as a vatpac controller. Today's event in which a complaint was lodged against me was the "final straw" and in this politically sensitive environment where people are too thin skinned to take any advise makes my position untenable. I wish the vatpac all the best in the future.

    We all have a different concept of fun. I flight sim purely for the challenge....it can be fun sometimes but also a great way to learn and a challenge. I like to do atc purely for the enjoyment of showing the younger guys how to do it properly. FUN...well my idea of that is a bottle of Châteauneuf-du-Pape and an expensive hooker in a nice hotel room...but that's another story...  20/80
