September 11, 20196 yr Won’t this update not only change the runway numbers/headings but cause misalignment on approaches when flying ILS LNAV approaches? For example: Wont your AC be heading on 028 bearing to follow the localizer when the runway has been updated in sim and now points in the bearing direction of 029? Chris Camp

Nope.. the runway does not move.. it simply gets new painted markings Bert

Yes - no issues so far and I have been using Herves' updates for maybe five years now. I update it and my Navigraph monthly.

Ok... can you still use the default flight planner to plan and import IFR flights for use with stock ATC or does the new updated NAVData overwrite and outdate the stock flight planner feature with map?

This from the docs "Replacement of stock navaids BGL files (as well as airport and airway data in the Europe area)may have side effects on generated flight plans, map display, GPS approaches using default sim data (but not those using external providers) and possibly AI traffic and ATC functionalities." So, I would expect the FSX flight planner to have issues. Besides, Little NavMap is free and a much more powerful flight planner.

You can still use the default FSX flight planner if you wish. Edited September 13, 20196 yr by Bert Pieke Bert
