Black box A340 AIRAC issue

Featured Replies

Does anyone have the Black Box A340 and is able to update the AIRAC? Not sure how to update it. My most recent AIRAC is from 2017.

Mine worked no problem with navigraph both manual installer or FMS management app, but I have deleted Blackbox stuff long ago....

I forgot to mention I have P3Dv5. Is that what you used?

Yeah same worked for me (P3Dv5)! I wish they would update the aircraft as it had potential...I am not sure how you can justify selling it with a "BBS promise of more things to come" that does not ever seem to happen..☹️

Well said: HAD. Consider development of these birds as finished years ago. Expect no further improvements from their side and you will be happy. With that mindset, I find the A340 and the A332 are very enjoyable, specially when using the 2D panel. VC is too crude for my liking.

Anyway, if you wish, use the manual installer and point it to the P3D v5 folder. But you need a Navigraph subscription for doing so. Any of the Navigraph options is enough for that.

I had put it in the Blackbox Nav Data folder which is in the P3Dv5 folder and I am unable to update the AIRAC. Even with the manual installer from Navigraph. 

I selected installation into P3Dv4 and then (P3Dv5 root)\Blackbox Simulation folder as destination folder. It works for me with no issues.
