However the JJEDI2 is not an option in my mcdu. Neither is the transition waypoint. Did I do something wrong? Do I need to manually direct things somewhere so fslabs or pmdg sees it? Thanks Which PMDG aircraft are you using? The main screen that appears on the FMS when you power up the aircraft should show you the date of the current AIRAC that is installed. If it shows the current cycle (18-03, which expires on March 28th), then it is installed correctly. If you do not see the most current AIRAC you have downloaded on the FMS then the Navigraph installer might not be pointed to the correct location to put the files. All PMDG aircraft use the same base nav data, but the 777 and 747 (but NOT the 737) use an additional file called apt_runway.dat. Navigraph includes a version of that file in their monthly download, but it sometimes does not work. A classic symptom of the problem is missing SIDS or STARS. You can simply delete the file (which will be the only one in your /PMDG/NAVDATA folder with a “.dat” extension. If you delete it, it will be rebuilt the next time you run either the 777 or 747.

I pointed fsaerodata to the right folder and installed and enabled with the most recent airac. Both fsaerodata and navigraph show 1803 but in the fslabs I am still not seeing up to date info. Any thoughts?
