airac cycles

[Guest]

please can someone help.. I know what airac cycles are (NavUpdates) but how do i install them into FS2000 and FS2002. I run 767pic on fs2000 and sometimes I am told to hold over a way point that is not in the fmc, will these airac uploades fix this problem ? Incidently has anyone bought A320 pic yet ?? Is it as good as the 767

Hi Trigger,The AIRAC updates use the latest real world waypoint info, and the controllers should also have this same info, so updating the AIRAC should fix the problem.Hope that helpsHenry :-wave

Come on guys !!!! Some one out there must know how to install airac, nav updates. Incidently Wilco say A320 pic, might be released in 8 to 10 weeks...

The Navdata updates are saved to the FS2002FMCWPNavData folder and are comprised of six files:Airports.datfmc_ident.txtwpNavAid.txtwpNavApt.txtwpNavFix.txtwpNavRTE.txt Please back up your data in the event you want to restore the original files.Where did you get the Navdata (AIRAC) files from? If you downloaded them from www.navdata.at the 767 PIC Navdata comes in an executable file that automatically detects your FS2000/2 location and installs itself correctly.

thats great, now I am getting somewhere !!! I have tried to download the latest airac cycles from navdata for the 767 but every time i try to unzip them it says the file does not have a valid archive !! I have just got the update from the Wilco down load page and that seems to work !! althought this is only Feb 2002

Perhaps you should contact the NavData site directly about the issues you're encountering?DSCVA3339

Well I just downloaded the Navdata files for 767 PIC from the same site and I had no problem opening the file.http://www.navdata.at/programs/docs/airac/...ac=0213&ext=zip

I had this problem a few weeks ago but just tried to download some hours later without any difficulty. It may have been a server problem.

Have just managed to download the airac cycle from your site that you posted (NavData).. and Whey it worked !! Maybe now I can hold around a waypoint instead of flying around aimlessly.. Thanks again Workingstiff and 737767 , Matt BAW472:-)
