This is what I have so far,Remember,No Support from PMDG,If you alter these files! Back up your data!go to,Your Drive\Microsoft Flight Simulator X\PMDG\NavData,to access these text documents.I don't know if it makes a difference in what order these entry's are added,but from looking at PMDG's file structure,it looks like they are filed by latitude.For example this number in the HOMEY KXTA12 fix,(37.233056)At least we can get to the VFR FAF for the runways now,I will try my luck on instrument approaches next.Add to wpNavAPT,(This is for US Cities-X Las Vegas KXTA area 51 airport,I think the default runways are offset a little from this add-on scenery.)HOMEY KXTA12 05413126 37.233056-115.811667000.0012604464HOMEY KXTA14 11975144 37.249722-115.800278000.0014404451HOMEY KXTA30 05413306 37.220065-115.794938207.0030604479HOMEY KXTA32 11975324 37.219167-115.784722000.0032404484Add to airports,KXTA 37.240159 -115.80385Add to wpNavFIX,ABBIE ABBIE 37.104722-115.992222FIDOE FIDOE 36.259694-115.506389FUZZY FUZZY 36.200575-115.900281DOGGI DOGGI 36.259694-115.506389PIMYD PIMYD 36.962500-115.973611 (don't know a better 5 letter abvr for pyramid)Add to wpNavAID,GROOM MCY VORD 37.242559 -115.79230117.50HMERCURY MCY NDB 36.627455-116.027532000.00NI have no idea how to add all this to the FSX navdata.Oh, HOMEY is the official name for area 51, airfield now, don't know why.

I was just remebering when I used to fly "Secret Shuttle" mission in FSX with the default 737. Long time I don't fly that one. It's one of my favorite missions.Ryan, could you post a "tutorial" about how to correctly add this fixes to the NavData? It's not that hard, I know. Actually I've been doing this for some time to add VHHX to the MD-11 map every time the AIRAC changes but... you know, just in case.
