January 31, 20242 yr It is missing in Navigraph. It is present in the default database. You can find it in the WT G1000. But you cant' find MTCA in navigraph charts.

Just streamed a flight from TFFS (Le Saints, Guadeloupe) down along Dominica, Martinique, St Lucia and St. Vincent, watermasking all incredible. Scenery is awesome.
January 31, 20242 yr Looks like it's named in different ways. Let's call it MTCA and problems solved! 😆 Cheers, Ed MSFS2020 Steam // Rig: Corsair Graphite 760T Full Tower - ASUS MBoard Maximus XII Hero Z490 - CPU Intel i9-10900K - 64GB RAM - MSI RTX2080 Super 8GB - [1xNVMe M.2 1TB + 1xNVMe M.2 2TB (Samsung)] + [1xSSD 1TB + 1xSSD 2TB (Crucial)] + [1xSSD 1TB (Samsung)] + 1 HDD Seagate 2TB + 1 HDD Seagate External 4TB - Monitor LG 29UC97C UWHD Curved - PSU Corsair RM1000x // Thrustmaster FCS & MS XBOX Controllers
January 31, 20242 yr It took me a whooping total of 6:50 hours for the complete Caribbean Update. Average speed close to 5 Mbps, minimum of 2 and maximum of 10 Mbps. World record!. Thanks MS guys. And, all this over a 500/500 Mbps internet connection.

Why would it be in the database? The runway is 1390 meters long and 25 meters wide. Not sufficient for the 600. And it is not forgotten. It's in there. Littlenavmap lists it as an add-on airport.

January 31, 20242 yr I downloaded the update and it took about 30 minutes, and that's with a big Starfield patch at the same time. Must be certain times of day and/or regions having download issues. ------------------------- Craig from KBUF
January 31, 20242 yr Northeastern US, the update took 12 minutes. I am on Spectrum cable with 200 MB internet.

January 31, 20242 yr No problems downloading here. The initial sim update took about 30 seconds. The World Update took about 5 minutes. Every internet-downloaded game ever has had server clogs on launch/major update days. It's silly to expect MS/Asobo to buy and run the level of servers/bandwidth needed to provide full speed downloads on the 3 or 4 heavy traffic days per year. I, personally, do not want MSFS 2024 to cost $300 so I'm happy to be patient when the download servers are temporarily clogged. Ryzen 7 7800X3D/B650 X AX | 5090 | 32gig | Win10 | Pimax Crystal Light

The initial update was very quick but I am halfway in the with the Caribbean update and so far it has taken 2 hours on a 250 mbps connection. One of the slowest updates for me since MSFS2020 was released. EDIT Actually things started to speed up at about 60% and the whole download took about 2.5 hrs.

February 1, 20242 yr Certainly pays to wait till the rush is over: under 4 minutes to install the 1.29Gb at 31mb/s on my 38mb/s connection, and that includes the time to reach the MSFS homepage. The 11.80Gb Marketplace WU install was more hit and miss, fluctuating between periods of 33mb/s and only 2.4mb/s, taking 59min.

I contacted Navigraph, and this is what they said about MTCA: I have checked the Haiti AIP but there are no details about this airport available. It seems that Haiti doesn’t report this to any public service because I haven’t found the code in the FAA notams service too. Such situation doesn’t mean, that the airport doesn’t exists but FAA nor the data provider doesn’t receive any information/updates from the goverment of this country. Therefore it’s missing, sorry.
