Preliminary results show the following:q1. Majority use the NAVDATA website.q2. Seems split - most peole update the NAVDATA SIDs to make them more accurate.q3. Majority keep them in the default FMCWP folder.q4. Of those that store the Database elsewhere, most store them in a seperate folder.q5. All of those who store the database outwith the default FMCWP folder use the SS Copierq6. No one has reported performance problems. - Performance problems have been reported on the forum by a few users who use the All in ONE file from the NAVDATA website.q7. Most of us it seems like to have the paper charts to hand as well.q8. Everyone would like their Sids to appear as runway specific. Follow this link and find out how to make q8 become reality http://ftp.avsim.com/cgi-bin/dcforum/dcboa...rum=DCForumID33Thanks to all those who have taken the time to answer the questions.Mark
