In these screenshots from the SkyVector website we see two route charts with several imaginary lines intersecting. They are blue high lanes (for flights above 24,500 feet) and black low lanes (for flights below 24,500 feet). Adding this feature to Aerofly would be great as a way to raise the level of realism. In addition, airways are also updated through Navigraph support.

admin Jet-Pack (IPACS) Is there any possibility for you to add these features such as Navigraph support for updating airac and airways to Aerofly? What do you think of these improvement ideas?

I discovered a flaw in the FMC. Several waypoints simply won't load. Initially the FMC even loads some waypoints but then an error message (format error) appears when I try to insert some more waypoints. There appears to be a disconnect between the FMC database and the fixes on the global map. To get around this error, I go back to the navigation menu and insert the missing waypoints of the route I want to take between airport A and B.

this problem also occurs on my device.

I also want to highlight that takeoff speeds do not change depending on the flap chosen. I hope this gets fixed.

The FMC database does not match what is in the navigation menu. Several waypoints are missing. I try to insert a certain waypoint and it always gives an error in the FMC. I simply cannot load a complete route directly into FMC without an error appearing. This occurs since Aerofly 2022.

At the moment only waypoints in the nearby loaded tiles can be inserted in the FMC. This is a limitation of the route and unfortunately I do not have access to the code to fix it, we'll have to wait for the route developer to fix this.
If you see the waypoint on the navigation display you should be able to insert it as well.

When this failure occurs I can only insert the waypoint in the navigation menu. I hope you can fix this bug as soon as possible. Thank you for your clarification.

I have two suggestions for a solution to this problem: one is to integrate all global map waypoints into the FMC or bring Navigraph support to the simulator. Speaking of Navigraph, are there any plans by the team to bring it to Aerofly? In this case, users would be responsible for paying the subscription for this support for the airac update, which is largely outdated. Several procedures are at odds with air navigation charts.

Loading all waypoints and data at once would already be more than most iOS devices can handle. That's why only some tiles are loaded and not the whole world. But of course we can perhaps add some database lookup request which doesn't need to load all data at the same time.

My cell phone is Android. Citing another simulator as an example, X-Plane mobile has a Boeing 737 that carries all the waypoints and airways around the world in the FMC, whether short or long routes. Not only on this 737, but all aircraft have FMC/GPS that carry any waypoint in the world's airspace. In addition, Navigraph support is present, making it possible to update airac and the FMC and aircraft GPS database. And this Navigraph support has little impact on the memory footprint of devices, whether iOS or Android.

The two games use completely different game engines, and can you really not see the modeling quality of xplane? ? ? Are the two comparable? If aerofly had used the same rendering engine as xplane, the lighting problem would have been solved more than 4 years ago

Firstly, X-Plane mobile and Aerofly are flight simulators and not games. Secondly, I'm talking about Navigraph support (airac update) and not the graphical quality of the two simulators. You will learn to interpret a text by your son from Austin Bug.

Hello everyone,
i‘d like to mention the topic of the navigation database being outdated.
Getting flightplans from Simbrief and trying to file the FPL in the fmc is mostly a problem. Waypoints are either non-existent or have a different name.
Is it possible to get it updated? -

Unfortunately a new navigation database is too expensive currently. The database we currently use was at an acceptable price back then. Nowadays the prices are too high for a completely new database but we will keep looking for an affordable option. Keep in mind we need to be able to redistribute this database, modify it and it needs to run offline without any additional user account from a third party software.

What about Navigraph support? This would be the best way to solve this outdated airac problem. Those who would pay for the monthly or annual subscription to update airac would be the users themselves. Or would IPACS have to pay Navigraph just to bring it to Aerofly? How does this issue work?
-
In the past, when simulating on X-Plane mobile, I used Navigraph support a lot to update airac. In the case of X-Plane mobile, this support was paid for by the users themselves. As far as I know, the developers of X-Plane mobile did not pay for the airac update with Navigraph. The monthly cost of the Navigraph subscription is not very high these days.

Hello dear ADMs, I am very satisfied with the aerofly Fs Global. It just needed an update on the procedures, unfortunately they are horrible. Please update as soon as possible

in fact they need to improve this, but to do that they have to update the navigation data
-
The most recommended option would be to add Navigraph support for updating the simulator's airac, which is quite outdated. Outdated Airac is horrible because it is not possible to create a flight plan either through Simbrief or SkyVector because the navigation data generated by these sites does not correspond to that in the simulator.
