Converting Lat/Lon to proper format for RWYs

Recommended Posts

Guest Major Pilot

Hi Terry,I am working on an airport to import into the PMDG74x and finally managed to import the runways and they show up...but they are not aligned nor am I at the correct end of the runway per the map(easy fix). The reciprocals also do not line up which is disconcerting. In the arpt.dat the runways are listed as lat/long but after the long there is another section ie. -98.646683000.0035401886 what is that?Here is the data for my runways. Could you help me convert the Long to the proper format?RWY MAG (TRU) LENGTH RWY START LAT/LONG Corrected Format?35L 347 (360) 12000 37.965877 -116 03.023213 AFC335L34712000 37.998790 -116.xxxxxxxxx.xxxxxxxxxx17R 167 (180) 12000 37.998790 -116 03.023213 AFC317R16712000 37.965877 -116.xxxxxxxxx.xxxxxxxxxx35R 347 (360) 10000 37.971350 -116 02.875813 AFC335R34710000 37.998777 -116.xxxxxxxxx.xxxxxxxxxx17L 167 (180) 10000 37.998777 -116 02.875813 AFC317L16710000 37.971350 -116.xxxxxxxxx.xxxxxxxxxx06 057 (070) 20000 37.964185 -116 02.807295 AFC306 05720000 37.982944 -116.xxxxxxxxx.xxxxxxxxxx24 237 (250) 20000 37.982944 -115 58.897552 AFC324 23720000 27.964185 -115.xxxxxxxxx.xxxxxxxxxx08 077 (090) 15200 37.982842 -116 02.258370 AFC308 07715200 37.982842 -116.xxxxxxxxx.xxxxxxxxxx26 257 (270) 15200 37.982842 -115 59.416320 AFC326 25715200 37.982842 -115.xxxxxxxxx.xxxxxxxxxxBest RegardsMike
