UK SIDS & STARS - WHERE ARE THEY?

Featured Replies

Hi AdrianThank you very much for the useful link - will browse and download some of the zip files ASAP.CheersAdam MoorePS: Excuse my ignorance but do you know if the txt contained in the zip files can be imported into the PMDG FMC or is it a case of manually entering each SID/STAR?

Hello AdamJust copy and paste the text files into the sid/stars folderC:Program FilesMicrosoft GamesFlight Simulator 9PMDGSIDSTARSC:Program FilesMicrosoft GamesFS2002PMDGSIDSTARSyou may have to overwrite a few files that already exist or move them elsewhere for safe keeping. Once the text files are in the sid/stars folder they will display in the fmc.Simon

Simon Thank you! Will try these out tonight.RegardsAdam Moore

Spent some of last night attempting to find at least one UK airport with complete STAR/SIDs in the 737NG FMC database. A planned trip from EGLL was cancelled after I noticed the FMC database only contained half the required SID routes from EGLL (CPT, DVR, DET) and the arrival airfield (EGBB) contained no STARS! Is there a more comprehensive SID/STAR database I can download to populate the FMC database? The current one is sadly lacking in worldwide information. I could import from FsNav (which has alot more SID/STARS) but then I would lose certain features only found in the FMC.Any ideas?RegardsAdam Moore
