My collection of 66 US locations available in AVSIM library now, filename is cycle_1007_sidstars.zipCycle 1007 is a minor update (half way through the 56-day full cycle) and there are not many updates to civilian procedures. However, if you haven't tried my collection of SIDSTARs yet I recommend giving them a try. The same stuff as from NAVIGRAPH except I add custom routing to get you to and from the runway or approach to the SID or STAR. No more discontinuities for vectors, and if you are using ATC then the original unmodified procedures are still in there.Happy contrails,

WOW! Thanks a lot...There's a ton of useful information there! Much appreciated! :(

I want to take a second to once again thank Dan for his dedication to these updates - the files are great and everyone should check them out!

Cool! But one question though. Do you have to update the NavData to 1007 in order for the SIDSTARS to work?

No, Dan defines all his fixes within the files so there's no need to have a current database. What I do is install the latest Navigraph set and then install Dan's files, overwriting the airports in the Navigraph set. This ensures everything is up to date, but it's not required to have the navigraph stuff.

This link includes US and UK and surround FMC procedures to download at no cost:http://planepath.com/html/pmdg.htmlAfter installing these install Dan's.

Alrighty then. Thanks for the reply!Maurice Neal

Just to clarify, if there have been runway changes (new numbers or new runways) then this creates a need for sidstar and navdata information to be somewhat in sync. It's been months since this has been an issue.All the cycles are available back for almost four years in the AVSIM library. Select EXTENDED SEARCH, search AUTHOR=Dan Downs and sort results by date. Volia, the current is on top, and this works every cycle.
