On most days, 25R and 19R used for take-offs while 25L and 19L are used for landings (there is a great spotting sight just off of 25L on Sunset
Boulevard, and you can tune your radio to listen to ATC!). I believe the runways are used depending on which direction the aircraft are approaching
from, as well as their size, as it seems most of the planes using the 19 side are smaller jets and props. On days when the wind is blowing the other
way, the 7's and 1's are in use. FS9 makes horrible use of this system, often landing jets on 25R and causing massive delays. There is an AFCAD with
crossing runways in use available at Avsim: lb_klas.zip. This is for the default airport. There was one by David Cooper for Simflyers, but I can't
seem to find it in the library now. These files, as well as utilities like AI Smooth can definately make McCarran more flyable. On the other hand, I
can think of worse cities to be stuck in!
