Hi My navdata for FMS for PMDG 747-400 is out of date, I went to www.navdata.com,but to get this data you have to buy credits,does anyone know where you canget this information without charge. thanks rocky4

No longer free data now that the feds have closed the door to public data sources. Only sources are now payware, hence the credit system.Cheers,

Is that the reason? Wow. I have to admit after 9/11 I am really amazed that Flight Simulator is still available! :( I have no quams about the navdata pricing at all personally! Reliable, Current and easy to install! as a heavy metal driver, I woulden't go anywhere else for my navdata!

There are no free sources of the data necessary to operate the PMDG products FMC. They all use Navigraph. The credits are not expensive 20 Euros = 200 credits. And once you download one source you may download all the sources including vroute and other products at no additional charge. There are also options for discounts.

Terry provides sidstars, but you still need the navdata. I also provide customized sidstar procedures for the US (see flightsim.com file pmdg0910.zip). See also: http://ops.precisionmanuals.com/wiki/SIDSTARS
