Unable to update TBM 900 NAV database using Navigraph.

[delta_Z]

TBM 1.1.13

X-Plane 11.55

The latest Navigraph updates are not reflected in the TBM 900's G1000 - as evidenced by the screenshot below. The default X-Plane aircraft (737-800) is showing the correct database expiration dates. Interestingly, only the Obstacle Database in the G1000 seems to reflect the Navigraph update.

I've seen threads saying that the issue is due to TBM using old X-Plane data format that is no longer supported by Navigraph. Is there a workaround? TBM Developers, are you aware of the issue?

Navigraph are preparing a Hot Start navdata file for the CL650, and this will also be used in the TBM once we get around to updating it.  Due to the impending 650 release, the TBM will be updated soon after the 650.

Thanks for the info. Any update from Navigraph? Any workaround meanwhile so we can have newer navdata in the TBM?

Best regards,

Dani

Sorry, but I am not sure that we are talking about the same thing. This is not about the support for MFD charts that you mention in the previous entry.

The question raised is about the current AIRAC not being updated. As @delta_Z commented in the fist entry, it is like the TBM AIRAC database is not updated.

 

I am using the latest NAVIGRAPH 11.55+ format and it has been working great until this last one (in 2022).

All other aircraft in XP11 using the same database (like default 737) are updated with the latest AIRAC.

Best regards,

Dani

I’m pretty sure that’s just a label… the G1000 navigation is mostly Laminar’s and it uses the custom nav data just fine. If you don’t have missing approaches or waypoints then don’t worry about it.
