I’ve created an new airport diagram for Ramat David (LLRD) because current diagram from 2006 is quite old.
This is my first diagram for BMS and is available at my web site here.
Did you see any mistake or something that can be improved?
The ILS-09 diagram is also on his way.
Thank you for your comments.
@griffin
LLHB (Hatzerim Airport Diagram) - Beta version for BMS 4.35 is now available. (Next update planned in january 2022).
See my newer post on this section for LLHB…
@snakexy
I will try your campaign next week within our squadron. Very appreciated. Thanks!
Hatzerim Air Force Base (LLHB) airport diagram for BMS 4.35 is almost done. I didn’t find runway 15-33 length and some other minor fix (MSA, Aprons, etc.) will be added later in my next update in january 2022.
Your comments are welcome to help me improve this diagram.
You can find my “Beta” version for review here:

Enjoy and Happy Christmas to everybody!
This is probably not in the proper forum section, but a comment can be corrected in the configuration file. Note: This is only a really minor typo.

Yes we have experienced this problem with U2 if it can help the Dev Team in their research. We experienced this problem within our squadron on a tactical mission (not in a campaign).
This problem already existed on certain occasions in
Air-to-Ground mission with U2.
We will attempt to reproduce this intermittent problem and provide more info as soon as possible.
Three of our virtual pilots have experienced this kind of problem with the TMS Up becoming inoperative, but on very rare occasions.
I thought it was a ghost keyboard command issue or our HOTAS setup that was causing this problem but it seems to be related to other things.

FAA pictogram for arresting wire is now updated on LLRD airport diagram. HotSpot1 (HS 1), fonts, and missing runway length are now in place with some other minor improvements.
ILS/DME 09 will be available soon.
@tgw Very nice job with this NEW Hornet! I have a dream for 4.36 for a basket refuel tanker will come to life.
Did you plan other skins? I will really be happy to have a CF-188 Hornet (Royal Canadian Air Force Hornet) from Bagotville AFB, Quebec, Canada (SQN 425 or 433).

Thank you for each of your suggestions. I am taking note of it and working on the fixes. I would be happy to contribute here according to your immediate needs. I especially like this ITO theater and Ramat David is arguably one of the nicest airbase in Falcon BMS.
@Kolbe-49th
Thanks for your answer Kolbe.
In the next update 4.37, is it possible to have those informations for each config options? (standard);
Example:
This can be a simple line at the end of each option (in reverse video or another color) , all in the same format.
In many config options in the Technical Manual, we already have these informations (very helpful, thanks!), but some of them did’nt indicate the “max_value” or no indication if this option is overwrited by the host server, etc.
I know that each value type is already avail with g_b (boolean), g_n (Numeric), g_s (string), etc.
I think that if every options was having an lastline always showing every possible values listed here, will really help outside programmers to validate every inputs from the config files of our teammates (via a little validation program as we have in my VFS).
As a second question/suggestion: Do you still plan to maintain three separate configuration files files in 4.37 (… Base.cfg, User.cfg and Server.cfg)? I must admit that is a big issue now for a squadron manager. In my point of view, the filter option of Joel Bierling was a better way to maintain only one active current configuration file because it was so easy to compare all my teammate’s config file with a little home made program tool (home squadron validation tool). These three config files to scan now is a much harder way to maintain stability for all our squad members…
So your input will be appreciated, because I’m currently working hard for our VFS with a new “F4Patch” like program (as done by Joel Bierling in 2004, but now including all know Options listed in technical manual in 4.36.1. This is a Treeview (hierarchical list on the left side, with input user data on the right side. My program scan every config options in all three config file (Base, User and Server) to output the «final result» of the current active config for this user. So I will probably standby with this personnal project if the actual “config method” is going to change in 4.37…
Thanks for your input and also thanks for this very helpfull technical manual.
g_bShowWpErrorsOnMap config option is already available in “Falcon BMS.cfg”, but is absent (not described) in the technical manual.
I think “g_bShowWpErrorsOnMap” and the explanation should appear at the end of page 26, after the option “g_bImageBasedLighting”. as it is ordered in the Falcon BMS.cfg file.
This is probably not in the proper forum section, but a comment can be corrected in the configuration file. Note: This is only a really minor typo.

QuebecAirForce is gearing up for its next fall season and the release of the 4.36 U1 patch couldn’t come at a better time.
I too am very impressed with the list of numerous fixes. A colossal job!
Congratulations and a respectful thank you to the entire BMS development team.
Our 24th year of simulation with Falcon will no doubt still be outstanding thanks to your dedication.
Great job! These maps are always very useful.
Congratulations to the BMS development team.
After working on a small project this winter with a BMS sub-committee, I can point out how professional your team is behind this free Add-On.
The future of BMS is very promising. Already, in my opinion, BMS outclasses everything that exists as a military simulator.
I can’t wait to see the next versions of this simulator when the graphics functions will make more use of the GPU via DirectX. The more the years pass, the better the wine.
Keep it up, you have had my gratitude for several years with your exceptional work.
Longue vie à BMS!
Bravo Mike Sierra for ever.

<p>@vfp <br />All new ITO airport diagrams have been completed as required with vectorial process (very high quality diagrams).<br /><br />For IAC, SID diagrams, I currently don’t have enough informations, tools and accurate data to proceed. But I continue to work and get some data. I will soon have more info from ITO theater project manager to obtain some specifics informations and for proposals at some aspects of the charts. <br /><br />My virtual squadron is currently on a 21st international dogfight championship with BMS 4.35 U3. Lot of work for now. I will be back in 2 weeks on the project…<br />Have a nice day!<br /></p>

<p>@Seifer <br />Thank you for the news. Always much appreciated. Make time for the next release as we already have a very busy winter session with 4.35. As for me, if 4.36 was released only this summer, it would be fully appreciated. Do not rush anything, already you have all my gratitude for this enormous work that you are already doing.<br /><br /></p>
