PSS Sids and Stars

[helberger 72]

Hi,A few weeks ago I bought the A330 from PSS and now I need some adviseon how to update the sids and stars. The PSS installed installed sids and stars from aug - sep 2002 and is out of date. Now we have the proceduresthat Terry Yingling kindly produces on a monthly cycle. How to I combinehis data with the origiginal files from PSS? The instructions say to unzipto pssnavdata and go fly. By doing so, I end up with much smaller files andoverwrites the original ones. Can someone offer some clarificationson how this works, or is this as good as it gets. I hardly ever see anyTransitions anywhere I fly. If this is normal, than I will have to live with it.Thanks Helmut
