KJAN ILS 34L problem

Featured Replies

Hi all,

 

I am trying to correct the 34L ILS at KJAN in FS9. It is about 20'-40' off to the right side. I have tried AFCAD & Airport Design Editor. Although I can create the file & it is going to /addon/scenery folder, the changes do not show. When I reopen the AF_KJAN.bgl file created, the changes are there just nos showing in FS. The addon folder is defenitly active because every time I reopen FS the scenery library does it's little update. Any help on this would be appretiated.

Well I found a afcad for KJAN that solved the ILS issue. I do not know why my fixes did not work. Would still welcome any thoughts on this.

I moved (drag) the ILS to align it with the runway center line. I recompiled to get the new bgl in the addon scenery folder.

...and the ILS shows up at the original location in sim? The usual cause for this is that there is another Bgl file containing the airport that loads after your modifications and resets things. Do you have any third party addons that might contain the airport? Some of the AI traffic packages contain airport files and these can cause all sorts of problems if you are not aware of them...

Jon,

 

Thanks. I will check. I have World of AI but thought all bgl's would either be in the scenery or addon/scenery folder.

Not necessarily and even if they are in the same folder as your update then they are loaded in file name order. So if there is one loading after your file with the airport in then it could over write your change.

The Localizer is in the correct location. The problem is, the front course should be set to 338.04. The approach data are correct.

So I was right in dragging the localizer to the runway centerline, but by not changing the front course is where I screwed up.
