Hi, this can be the magnetic variation. MSFS uses very old magnetic variation datas for the rwy headings. The Navdatas from Richard Stefan have the actual magnetic variation. to align the PMDG datas with the FS9 rwy heading you can edit the wpNavAPT.txt and replace the hdg's with the FS9 datas. For example Ketchikan:The bold numbers are the rwy headings. KETCHIKAN PAKT11 07497109 55.362983-131.726128109.3010900079KETCHIKAN PAKT29 07497289 55.348261-131.701128000.0028900086You could also try to restore the original magdec.bgl file from the FS9 disk.

Hi, when it happens with LDS too then the magdec.bgl file is not the default file anymore. Try to restore the original magdec.bgl file from one of the FS9 Disks. The file is in one of the *.cab files. Normaly you can open and extract it with Winzip. The file should be placed in ...Flight Simulator 9SceneryBASESceneryJan-Paul
