Reading airport database using the SDK ?

snagar.dev · March 6, 2020 at 8:34 PM

Hi,

I'm trying to figure out what are Aerofly SDK capabilities. As far as I could see, I can use message like interface for receiving current plane status. What I'm interested is how to get information about the navaids/airports around my plane.

I'm trying to figure out:

How to get information regarding any navaid Aerofly supports.
Can I read the navaids/airports database directly without special interface ?
Is there any API that allows me to get an airport or any navaid that is N nautical miles from my plane or relative to a position I provide ?

Thanks

Saar

As far as I know that is not yet possible with the SDK. What do you want to do with that information?

I was thinking to create random missions based on this information.

You could code most of that manually couldn’t you? Scan the folders, retrieve airport TSC files etc. The only bit missing from your requirements is navaids.
