A way to update the program itself with current airport data?

Featured Replies

There are addons that will import the latest and greatest airport data for use in things like flight planning but, does it actually update the program's information and affect the NAV radio functions.

For instance, the current frequency for the ILS system at KRNO is 109.9 but, P3D has it as 110.9. Using the current frequency then will not correlate to P3D properly and using the current frequency will not give you any valid ILS information...you have to tune the NAV radio to what P3D has in order to use ILS at all.

 

The other problem is that P3D shows ILS only for one runway at KRNO (16L) when, in fact, ILS seems to have been installed for  two runways now...34R and 16L according to my web search.

Hi,

 

you can upgrade simulator data via

I state this as is, as I never tried it myself. I am not sure about side-effects, but there are certainly some (including the fact, that most of the addon developers rely on the default - albeit wrong - FSX/P3D data).

 

I'd suggest reading a few opinions on this approach (there are some scattered around), afterwards it's up to you to try it.

 

Kind regards, Michael
