VDGS with fenix not displaying flight information at EBBR

Featured Replies

Hi anyone else experiencing this ? The VDGS recognises the gate number at EBBR when spawned in but no flight details are ever displayed. Flightplan with simbrief is downloaded. Both FBW A320 and default A320 both show all VDGS details. Weird. Got tgo be something to do with simbrief but no idea what ?? Thanks.

are you using Aerosoft's VDGS or a GSX airport profile? If it's Aerosoft it does not have the feature on departure, only arrival. If you have an appropriate GSX airport profile with VDGS added, it will show your simbrief data (departure time, stand etc.), if you entered your Simbrief profile id in the GSX settings.
Anyway, just stop using Aerosoft's VDGS, it's awful and the opposite of "automatic".

EDIT: Just seen it works with the FBW, so you probably have GSX set up correctly with a airport config. As for why the Fenix does not work - check Simbrief date and departure time and the aircraft ICAO code ("A320"). If the date/deperature time is in the past, VDGS won't show up (actually there's a new setting in GSX from the latest update to ignore this, so it always shows even if it's in the past).

Thanks for your response. Much appreciated. I am using Aerosoft VDGS. I am using the exact simbrief info for each A320 variant but  for some reason Fenix wont display flight info.
