Those sceneries have the same AFCAD installed in 2 different places - if you use the GNZLAP AFCADs for these (which you should!) make sure you also replace the ones in \Scenery\World\scenery.

Are you using FS2004 or FSX, Nick?

I don't think that it is necessary to replace the AFCAD in Scenery\World\scenery, as this is just there to set the airport elevation. You wouldn't need to change this unless you changed the elevation -- and of course this is a lot trickier than just changing the AFCAD elevation.
However it is possible to end up with duplicate AFCADS, which would cause problems. Let me know which version of FS you have, and I'll get into it further.
The most obvious thing to check is that your Addon Scenery folder is still activated...

...and that those are the only AFCADs you have installed, otherwise they fight each other.

I'm just not too sure that GNZLAP has AFCADs for Real NZ Marlborough?

Yeah, but they are not interchangeable -- I normally move airports to their correct location, so using any adapted AFCAD based on the position of the default airport would not work -- and would give the results you are getting.

The GNZLAP project started as a result of the RealNZ sceneries needing AI population...
All the RealNZ FS9 sceneries have replacement GNZLAP AFCADs available which place the GA (and other) aircraft correctly.
E.g. NZTG puts Bayflight on the concrete pads next to the taxiway around the back, in order; NZWN has additional GA over the runway, so too NZRO and NZPN.
Tekapo too.
NZWB has parking for C130, CT4 and helos (in the RNZAF AI packages)
etc etc
All other GNZLAP AFCADs are fillers for places where no aircraft parking exists in your stock setup, use them only where necessary.
Snowman's sceneries are of a later vintage than GNZLAP, so would not require the use of GNZLAP AFCADs.

So the GNZALP AFCADS are the best? I just had a system reinstall (damn Viruses) so what should I install?
