Odd, all the NDB's I've added wtih AFCAD are in the sim OK. Are you trying to make an NDB approach and ATC is not giving it to you? That will not work.BTW, where did you save your modified AFCAD airport? If that location is not added to the Scenery Library (or already added) then it won't show up in FS.Hope this helps,--Tom GibsonCal Classic Propliner Page: http://www.calclassic.comFreeflight Design Shop: http://www.freeflightdesign.comDrop by! ___x_x_(")_x_x___

What do you mean by "show up". You should see it in the map/GPS and be able to tune it, but if you want to see a physical object in the sim you need to install a scenery object for it with something besides AFCAD2.scott s..

Thanks for the replys.After setting up the NDB with AFCAD I restart FS and it displays the messages about rebuilding the scenery databases. When FS is up and running I use FSNAV to check the NDB and it is not there.Also have recently aquired AFX and that produces exactly the same results. When I use AFCAD it displays three bgls for the field I am modifying, a MOD which is the UK2000 bgl and two stock bgls, they are both greyed out but accessible. I have put the NDB in all three but still no NDB shows up.

Sorry guys - Memory trouble on my part.Adding the NDB had worked. I had forgot to run the Database setup program for FSNAV. The NDB was there all the time.That's the problem with getting old your memory goes, now what was I talking about...........Many thanks for your help.
