Using Navdatapro AND Navigraph

Recommended Posts

Hi,

For the last couple of years I have only used Navigraph for both FMS data, and Charts, however, ever since Navigraph changed to Jeppensen Charts (again), I've found myself struggling with the iPad app (as in I don't find it as convenient as Before, and generally I've always used LIDO charts). Hence, I have lately been thinking of moving to Navdatapro to get Charts (so that I can use LIDO), but still use Navigraph for FMS data.

So, I was wondering if it is possible to do it this way?
Also, considering the providers should use the same AIRAC at all times, the Charts (from Navdatapro) should still match the FMS data (from Navigraph) even though I get it from different providers, right?


Thanks in advance!

It has been my experience that Lufthansa (NavdataPro source) and Jeppesen (Navigraph source) do not always match up on procedure definitions... nor do they always use the same name for certain types of FMS waypoints in a procedure.  So on the surface you would think they are identical... but that is not guaranteed to be honest.

even if the fms data is different, i'd expect that the charts themselves pretty much match your navigraph data at least in most significant respects.. aren't they just supposed to be updated real world charts anyway? and if not then what are you paying for hehe? i'd guess maybe there could be some mismatches if they have a delay from certain ones being updated or something from time to time, of course thats why it's cheaper than the certified charts.
