August 17, 20187 yr VHHX file exists in PMDG\SIDSSTARS folder and also in PMDG\NavData\wpNavAPT and latest AIRAC installed via Navigraph subscription (cycle 1809), but whenever try and enter VHHX into FMC receive error 'VHHX Not in Data Base'. Also when try to import PFPF flight plans involving VHHX receive error message 'Invalid Route Uplink'. Please advise how to resolve

August 17, 20187 yr I’m not the OP, but I know how he probably fixed it. In the folder that contains the Navigraph nav data, is a file called APRT_RWY.DAT A new copy of this file is provided by Navigraph with each new monthly AIRAC update, but sometimes certain airports are missing in the Navigraph version. The way to fix the problem is simply to delete the file from the NAVDATA folder. If you then load either the PMDG 747 or 777 (any variant), a new copy of this file will be automatically created, and it normally fixes the issue of known airports missing from the FMS database. Loading the 737 will not recreate the file, since the NGX FMS does not use it. Jim BarrettLicensed Airframe & Powerplant Mechanic, Avionics, Electrical & Air Data Systems Specialist.

I thought it was part of the Navigraph download because it has the same date stamp as my most recent Navigraph update. However, after deleting all files and downloading again (without loading the aircraft), It indeed does not reappear. In any case, deleting and letting the aircraft load re-create it seems to solve most “not in database” airport problems with the PMDG 747 or 777 Jim BarrettLicensed Airframe & Powerplant Mechanic, Avionics, Electrical & Air Data Systems Specialist.
