Flight simulator Traffic X new website launched


The dedicated website for Traffic X, the latest version of the world’s best selling AI aircraft traffic expansion for Flight Simulator, is cleared for takeoff!

The DVD-ROM version of Traffic X is now available and to accompany the full release of download, boxed and upgrade versions, the dedicated Traffic X website www.justflight.com/trafficX-home.asp has now gone live.
The site is designed to support the huge community of Traffic X fans. Visitors to the site will find a huge amount of information about Just Flight’s best-selling AI traffic expansion and a steadily growing catalogue of user-generated content to enhance the program. Anyone who wishes to can create their own airport facility files or aircraft repaints and upload them to the Traffic X site to share with the rest of the Traffic X community.
Commenting on the new site, Just Flight’s Richard Slater said: “We’ve had a dedicated site for each release in our Traffic series since the days of FS Traffic 2002. The beauty of the Traffic series is that its huge army of fans take a lot of time and effort to put together traffic files for their own airports or repaint the aircraft. If they want to share their files with the rest of the community they can upload them to a site specifically aimed at other users. We have similar sites for our Cargo Pilot, Airliner Pilot and Flying Club titles and they have all proved to be extremely popular.”
Traffic X includes over 1,700 different aircraft variants based on more than 80 aircraft models. The planes are designed to the highest level of AI aircraft detail and painted in a dazzling variety of airline liveries from around the world. They can all be seen flying, landing, taxiing, parking and taking off at airports large and small.
The aircraft featured range from small single-engine private aircraft like the C152 right up to the world’s biggest airliner, the Airbus A380. The software also includes the highly advanced 787 Dreamliner and Airbus A350 XWB and a huge amount of other aviation traffic that falls between these extremes. There is a massive selection of commercial jet airliners, regional jets, regional turboprops, business aircraft, general aviation aircraft and helicopters and, for the first time in the Just Flight Traffic series, a whole host of multi-national military aircraft!

As well as aircraft, Traffic X also boasts a huge set of new features – here’s a quick summary of some of them:

  • The new Traffic ControlCentre (TCC) program gives you full access to customise and expand your AI traffic in a comprehensive and easy-to-use way.
  • ChronoTraffic AI time period selection feature. Every aircraft and flight can now be set to be specific to a certain period of years.
  • Take the place of an aircraft spotter and watch the traffic at busy airports.
  • The all-new Follow-me car and pushback truck let you explore the airport from the ground and even guide incoming AI aircraft to their parking positions.
  • Traffic X now includes a diverse selection of military aircraft.
  • The 787 Dreamliner now has all the known launch customer liveries included!
  • The Airbus A350 XWB comes with all the known launch customers liveries included!
  • Keep an eye out for clandestine CIA Extraordinary Rendition flights.
  • An all-new Traffic Radar allows you to view traffic information for each AI aircraft in range. There are three different modes - vertical speed and current altitude, bearing and distance, identification and true airspeed.
  • Another Just Flight Traffic first - Unique Custom AI sounds.
  • Appropriate aircraft take advantage of the advanced animations in FSX to operate with airport service vehicles.
