SupraJari Posted March 20, 2021 Report Posted March 20, 2021 (edited) I'm happy flying my Saab, but everytime I start it I see this: I'm Navigraph subscriber and this is how my FMS looks like: What's wrong?? I tried to search for answer but didn't find any. This is how my custm data looks like: And for the record my best landing few days ago, I simply love this plane and the pic. Everything was correct, long 10nm approach, flying manual. All info appreciated!! Edited March 20, 2021 by SupraJari pics added Quote
mjrhealth Posted March 20, 2021 Report Posted March 20, 2021 Its the default GPS gets its data from XPLANE dat if using 11.5 im sure Quote
SupraJari Posted March 20, 2021 Author Report Posted March 20, 2021 (edited) I thought that too, but FMS includes also 11.5 Xplane default GPS and as you can see, it should be up to date. My cycle_info says: AIRAC cycle : 2102 Version : 1 Valid (from/to): 25/FEB/2021 - 25/MAR/2021 Still Saab's GPS expires 2020... Edited March 20, 2021 by SupraJari Quote
mjrhealth Posted March 20, 2021 Report Posted March 20, 2021 Im Itruiged, the default GNS430 is supposed to use the xplane files, but this one is not. Im confused. Unless this is the default Xplane 10 one and there was an update for it. Because I dont have any June 2020 data. Quote
SupraJari Posted March 20, 2021 Author Report Posted March 20, 2021 (edited) I bought my xplane when the version was 11.50, now it's 11.52. Also my first Saab-version is 1.6 (now 1.6.3) so I shouldn't have any "historic burden". I have a Zibo 737 installed, I think it's supposed to use same Xplane navdata, I'll try to find out what it's reporting (I'm mid air with Saab at the moment). PS. I simply love this airplane and I want everything to be perfect with it Edited March 20, 2021 by SupraJari version info updated Quote
akatham Posted March 20, 2021 Report Posted March 20, 2021 Considering how other planes do it, it is probably(?) just a static texture. (Just guessing, though) Quote
mjrhealth Posted March 20, 2021 Report Posted March 20, 2021 Just now, akatham said: Considering how other planes do it, it is probably(?) just a static texture. (Just guessing, though) I believe that page is a mod, its not default, so it is probably just a texture,Be nice if it did display the correct Navdata. Is that an easy fix?? Quote
SupraJari Posted March 20, 2021 Author Report Posted March 20, 2021 I'm wondering what other pilots see in when they open their Saab's X530? Same date or different? Quote
Prosco Posted March 20, 2021 Report Posted March 20, 2021 Hello, Like you, I have the same welcome screen with the GS 530 and I use Navigraph AIRACS 2102. I think the welcome screen is a frozen image but the GS530 uses the AIRACS Navigraph if they have been installed correctly (for you it's OK). The test: look for the LFKJ - RNP RWY 20 approach if it is present you have the latest AIRACS. NB: this approach appeared a few months ago in the Navigraph database. Quote
SupraJari Posted March 20, 2021 Author Report Posted March 20, 2021 Hi Prosco and thanks for your help. I was able to find RNV20 from my list, so I must be running the correct AIRAC Quote
pdg17 Posted March 20, 2021 Report Posted March 20, 2021 Is using the default data, XP11/resources/default data which is June 2020, you can copy and paste the current CIFP folder from custom data and the following earth files located in the custom data root, awy, fix, hold, mora, msa and nav. LEAVE the existing earth_astro in place within the DEFAULT data. As always back up existing files. Quote
JGregory Posted March 20, 2021 Report Posted March 20, 2021 The GNS430 display of nav data date is NOT static. There is currently a bug in logic and will be fixed in the next update. 2 Quote
SupraJari Posted March 21, 2021 Author Report Posted March 21, 2021 (edited) Excellent info and much appreciated! EDIT: pdg17, your tip worked! Edited March 21, 2021 by SupraJari pic added Quote
