Hi Zoran,

EDIT: I just realized you may have used a separate VHHX installer.  This is no longer necessary.  Recent airacs from Navigraph now include VHHX data.  The installer may have messed up the files.  You will need to reinstall the airac from Navigraph.

If you didn't use a separate installer: 

I have Airac 1807.  I just loaded up a QOT 747 and found no problem setting VHHX as the destination (but only after entering my departure airport first).

If it's the 777 or 747, try deleting ARPT_RWY.dat found in ...FSX\PMDG\NavData .  It is not part of the airac's navdata.  It's a cache file that will rebuild the next time you load thee 777 or 747.  You can back it up if you want outside of the Navdata folder.

If that doesn't work or it's a different PMDG aircraft, there are a few other files to check.  But this would be the simplest solution.

Thanks Mike! success !

I was loading the only flight plan I had saved in the PMDG777 but it was taking off from VHHX for testing. Followed your advice and made it the destination which of course it should be and its all there

Hi, Zoran,

I just noticed in another thread you said you still have Navigraph airac 1309 showing for PMDG.  That doesn't have VHHX.  But recent Navigraph airacs do.  Once you have the current airac installed, you don't need to run a separate VHHX installer.

Mike  yes i was able to update to the latest cycle before I replied to your post here and VHHX + sid / stars were there waiting.

Where did you get PMDG v5?

Try this …. and I hope it helps.

Check file Airports.dat for:

Where did you get PMDG v5?

Thanks for that however as posted above the problem is solved. Pmdg 777 V5 download link is earlier in this thread

My solution to the problem was simple as the poster Mike suggested i try this and it worked

"I have Airac 1807.  I just loaded up a QOT 747 and found no problem setting VHHX as the destination (but only after entering my departure airport first)."

Check file Airports.dat for:

Hi Patricio,

This is no longer necessary if you use Navigraph, and is likely to cause problems.  Since Airac 1712, Navigraph is including all the data for VHHX in its files.  In fact that is what this thread is originally about.  Please take a look at the first post on the first page:

Mike

PS: I just downloaded Navigraph Airac 1808 for PMDG and the info is in there.

Hello Mike777 long time no see … glad you are here again. Regarding on the help I tried to give in this thread was based on a person who had issues with finding the VHHX but you are right. VHHX airport data appears in AIRAC now. I thought it could be a good idea at least to check if VHHX info was in the AIRAC from zmask member.

Hi Patricio,

Glad to "see" you too!  I think Jocko's installer is still needed for navdata from Aerosoft.  I'm not sure since I don't use Aerosoft's data.  Jocko has a different installer for that available on his web site.  Aerosoft's data for PMDG should also be fixable using your information.  Same for anyone who does not update their navdata.

Best regards,

Mike

A pleasure keeping in touch with you Mike777 and even learning more. I have plenty Aerosoft sceneries but none of Aerosoft planes. Really PMDG is all I want and as you know I have 737NGX, 747 v1, v2 and v3. Also, the PMDG 777 and Level-D. I was almost purchasing for Carenado guessing is from Aerosoft but not sure if I can fly with. I never tried a smaller aircraft without FMC. I didn't try even with Cessna (lol) because I don't understand very much about. It is more enjoyable PMDG with FMC.... just me. I may try sometime with Cessna to find on how to program an arrival. When you say Aerosoft data I guess their birds use AIRAC from Navigraph too. I might be wrong.

Just installed X-Plane 11 and updated to AIRAC 1809. The Boeing 747-400 FMS says VHHX not in database. Any ideas? I am new with X-Plane 11 sim.
