Navdata question

[Skorp]

Hello guys.

 

The other day I downloaded Airac 1512 and this is LEVX in Airports entry:

A|LEVX|VIGO|42229122|-8627528|855
R|02|15|7825|0|0|0|42221456|-8629608|855|300|50
R|20|195|7825|1|110900|195|42242500|-8623886|829|300|56

I´m surprised because if I departure from LEMD to LEVX, in the STAR I see 02/20 in LEVX STAR´s but no when I departure form LEVX, then the LEVX SID I see are 01/19 runaways

Any idea?

Due to earth magnetic declination changes VIGO airport had to renumber their runway from 02/20 to 01/19 by the end of 2015.

Why did you install an older CYCLE1512 (2015 - DEC)? xplane current version has already included CYCLE1602 (2016 - FEB)

I presume the older cycle you installed has a bug with runway renumbering not properly updated on all procedures. I am not at the sim now to check that the newest cycle included with xplane 10.45 does not has the issue.

I´ve installed, in the CRJ resource folder, Airac 1512.

The lines I´ve copied in my first post are from that Airac (airports.txt)....I suppose CRJ take airport runaways data from that file....or no?

My question is why I have 01/19 (runaways not actived) in LEVX SID and 02/20 in LEVX STAR   ??

Thanks, mmerelles

You are not getting 01/19 on the SID/STAR because you have an oudated cycle on the CRJ-200 and the runways renumbered by the end of 2015.

 

Assuming you are running xplane 10.45, if not then update xplane, it is free (xplane 10.45 includes cycle AIRAC1602 (2016 - February).

 

1. go to your /xplane 10/custom data/gns430/ and copy the folder navdata (and all of its content, so copy the folder)

2. to your crj-200 navdata folder, usually located at:

/xplane 10/Aircraft/CRJ-200/plugins/CRJAvionics/ (there should be a navdata folder here already, replace it entirely, delete the old one first!)

now your crj200 will have the cycle 1602 on its database including sid and star

I´ll give a try.

 

Thx mmerelles

Hello mmerelles

Problem solved.

The Xplane´s navdata is not compatible with CRJ navdata.

The solution is to update CRJ navdata with VASFMCnative file, as Phillip says.

My error was I´m thinking LEVX changed runaways from 01/19 to 02/20, when as you know was 02/20 to 01/19....

 

Thanks for your help, mmerelles

I was about to say, this is not going to work. Glad you found the correct data set and solved the problem.

ops... glad you managed to fine tuned the solution  i assumed the CRJ200 was also compatible to xplane navdata.

It appears the Steam version of the CRJ-200 is (compatable with the X-Plane GNS430's navdata), see Philips post here.
