my fmc says that i have AIRAC CYCLE 0311 wich is out-of-date and the newest cycle is 0407....since i have an old cycle, do i need to load the other cycles after my current cycle (0311) up to the newsest cycle (0407)? ...or can i just update from 0311 to 0497 CYCLE without needing the other ones after 0311 to get 0407? same with sid & star updates...please let me knowTHREE GREENS!brandon Glass

Nope, just update to the 407 cycle, no need to update with earlier cycles. You'll also want to grab the latest updates to the SID/STARs to coincide with the AIRAC cycle. No need to update with previous versions of these either.

DanI recently updated my SID/STARS file, and had some trouble. KMIA has "no runways" and SBCO has suddenly changed Runways to a completely different direction (12 instead of 17). I posted this before, but although it was acknowledged by some, no fixes yet...Any clues?BPilot

In some countries/airports the rwy numbers have been changed. Check them out, lot of problems solved probably!reg,John

thanks everybody.rgds,brandon
