FMC Database link is dead... Help!

Featured Replies

Hi all,I went to www.navdata.at as instructed and all I got was a blank page with a single line of text:"A new web was born!"What's up with that? Has the site moved? I really want to be able to use my FMC, why is the database no longer on PMDG's site? Can anybody suggest an alternate place to download it?Thanks,Marc

Well I just checked it and all is there like it has been. Are you using IE5? You will need to register to download, it's free if you have not already done so.[h5]Best Wishes,Randy J.

Hmm,I've checked it on three different computers at home and at work(IE5.5 or 6.0) using Win98, Win2000, and WinXP. The only thing they all have in common is they're behind a firewall - but wouldn't expect that to matter. Very Strange!Marc

Awww DISABLE your firewalls, I do remember reading something about that.[h5]Best Wishes,Randy J.

Disabled my firewall at home... no dice. If that's supposed to be the new web... I like the old one better :-). Does anyone else host that data?Thanks,Marc

Gooper (name?),The FMC is pretty much worthless without a database... kind of like a pc with no hard-drive.Regards,Marc

Yup, I get the new web thing as well. Not cool at all.

>Does anyone else host that data?Marc,To the best of my knowledge, no, only Mr. Steffan does(and if I mis-spelled his name I am sorry).

Hi all, No way here at the moment : "a new web was born"... Glad to know that, but it seems that a lot of us have the problem.Maybe it would be useful to inform Mr Stefan ? Anybody's got his email ?

Randy,I use mozilla and I kept visiting the page, trying to see whats up. It kept working. So I tried IE, and sure enough I got the problem. Then I cleared my cache out, and i get the same page that the other users are getting ;-)Try that and see what happens.
