No it’s a payware

SID / STAR / TRANSITION / APPR

Navigraph

Finally, I have to admit that it is the price to pay for a neat database.

But, there's a big hole of airways in France in Navigraph. So it finds stupid and not real routes!

Dear IPACS team,

The implementation of Navigraph would be a great thing.

Ok, one year subscription of this enhancement is more expensive than Aerofly itself, but for those who accept to pay...

Navigraph is a pure wonder that deserves Aerofly.

Just a simple idea with a lot of work behind.

Thank

Without a real implementation of Navigraph, the Microsoft export file (from Navigraph) contains all the necessary to create a flight plan.

• Origin airport,
• Departure runway,
• SID name and its waypoints and theirs coordinates,
• Airways name and its waypoints and theirs coordinates,
• STAR name and its waypoints and theirs coordinates,
• APPR type and its waypoints and theirs coordinates,
• Arrival runway,
• Destination Airport.

Importing such a flight plan (in a kind of override mode) could just (for one flight plan) show waypoint names (pinned with coordanates) even though they are not known in the database or the airways are not known. The aircraft could behave the appropriate way at ILS or RNAV or other approaches. The constraints would be ignored in that case, but the descent mode of the A320 will compensate.

Dear Jet-Pack (IPACS)

It's impossible to select STAR or/and APPR at Berlin for the 4 runways.

• With or without streaming;
• A check of the installation has been done with Steam;
• Deletion of the main.mcf done.

Thank you.

Best regards

Yes, our navigation database does not include the new airport yet. We've added the runways but we are not keen on programming all approaches, sids and stars manually.

Ah OK, I was worried because I was playing with a custom_mission_user.tmc file with a flight to EDDB. I was not sure I feared to have killed something.

Thanks for the rapid answer.

Jet-Pack (IPACS) you are not keen to... (was man als 'nicht scharf drauf' übersetzen kann). Then please update your totally outdated navigation database!

Hello Adms, I know I've already made this request once, but unfortunately I'll have to do it again: This simulator is incredible after the global version came out, but it needs an update to the simulator's Airac and is also in need of optimization. I will send three photos of some SID procedures at Galeão airport (SBGL). But it's not just the same person that needs this update, but all of them (whether from Brazil or the USA). There is no way to do a decent flight in the simulator, not to mention that there are many landfills (WAYPONT) and airways (AIRWAYS) missing to give that beautiful simulation in Aerofly Fs Global (AFS GLOBAL) So ADM, please take advantage of the fact that we are in beta and start preparing these updates

Or let us save some created smart-routes?

The Navigraph support is the best solution to resolve this outdated airac issue. With outdated airac it is not possible to create a corresponding flight plan in SkyVector or Simbrief. The implementation of airways in the simulator is also something important that should not be forgotten.

Dear Ipacs, I noticed an error in the FMC on the Boeing 737-900 on the Legs page. Taking off from Nice LFMN and following the SID 'BODR5B' the route indicated in the FMC, (412) 225º and 04R/8 320º is not correct. Thank you.

Jet-Pack (IPACS)
…also MN044 91º and MN224 91º! Thank you!

Jet-Pack (IPACS)
Thanks for the prompt response. Certainly the magnetic variation changes quickly, one of the things I learned for obtaining my private pilot's license 😛, but as you can see when I take off from Nice LFMN I turn right, heading approximately 139º, not 225º or 347º as indicated in the FMC. In that case I would go the other way. I apologize if I seem insistent.

The information in this letter is outdated as it is from 2011. Most likely this letter is no longer used.

can you try the SID following the FMC track instructions? Please?

Quote from Jet-Pack (IPACS)

Magnetic variation changes quickly, so you can't compare out old database with new data from the real world...

Hello Jet-Pack (IPACS) I wanted to know if you intend to update the simulator airac. The simulator is great, but to make it even better we need you developers to update it, there is no way to make a decent flight plan in the simulator because all the procedures are out of date
