AS 2012 Flight Planner Won't Recognize Airport

Featured Replies

Hi,

I wanted to create a flight plan between my hone airport to Clermont County in Ohio. The code is I69. I tried both I69 and KI69 and both bring up the error to "Please Enter a Valid ICAO Code." This airport is in the FSX database. What's wrong? Thanks. Tom

Might not be within the AS 2012 Database....

AS2012 only includes airports with a 4 character code. If I need to do a flight plan within Active Sky, I use an existing airport (4 character code) very close to my home field (3 character code).

 

If you do a flight plan outside Active Sky and import it, and it includes a destination not in the AS database, the flight plan will still show up going to the correct location but you may not get the destination ATIS information (frequency 122.02) from Active Sky... the radio is silent.

Hi,

 

You can also add this as an airport using the "Edit Station Database" tab in wx options (select airports and add it at the end, then apply changes). You must use 4 letters i.e. KI96 and specify the name, decimal-based latitude/longitude and elevation (meters). Then it can be used as a waypoint in a flight plan with that ID, seen on the map, etc.
