Hello,
I've got a problem. The map in 737 doesn't show good airport location. As you can see in this screenshot http://imageshack.us/photo/my-images/43/txoc.jpg/ , although I am on the centre of runway 19R in KIAD, the map shows it is on the right. This issue applies to all american airports, in Europe everything is fine. I'm using navigraph 1309.

that's result of one of these two things

First : you use a very old Airac and the airport is update sometime later and change names of the runways

second : you use a 3rd Party airport or AFCAD does not Compatible with the Airac database you use or the AFCAD is not Properly designed

After reinstalling the whole fsx the problem still exists.

I'm not using any addon scenery or airport.

Tried to install this: http://www.aero.sors.fr/navaids3.html but it didn't help.

And as I said, I am using actual airac 1309 from navigraph.

Your scenery is outdated. Try an AFCAD update from the AVSIM library or buy the payware Flightbeam KIAD.

Hi there

Just a thought, as it is happening to all your USA airports and they are all default, I wonder if it is a result of out of date magnetic variations, as I see that there is a sticky on this subject in the General forum. Especially as you have re installed FSX which would have outdated magnetic variations which maybe would not be so obvious in Europe? This is just a guess but it cannot harm your system to updated to the latest magnetic variations even if it does not solve your problems?

Kind Regards

I'm assuming you're using FSX default scenery? If so, the runway you are on which says 19R on it is in reality now 19C since they added a new runway a few years ago (since your nav data is current, it knows this runway as 19C). Have a look at the airport chart (available for free online from about 100 different places) and compare to the top down view in the sim and you'll see what I mean. You'll run into this problem at several airports (ORD for example is very different)
