Hello everyone,

I’m reaching out to see if anyone else is experiencing a specific issue with the latest AIRAC Cycle 2603 (International/Worldwide) on the Reality XP GNS 530 (using Garmin Trainer data).

I’ve noticed that the RNP RWY 24 approach at LSZG (Grenchen, Switzerland) has completely disappeared from the procedure list in this cycle. Interestingly:

1. The approach was perfectly available and working in Cycle 2502.
2. The IAF waypoint ARVAN is still present in the database and can be found via the WPT page.
3. Other nearby airports like LSZB (Bern) show their new procedures correctly (including the new RNP Z 32).
4. I have tried cleaning the Garmin Trainer cache (db.bin / idx files) and reinstalling the data, but the list for LSZG remains empty (except for the VOR 24).

I suspect a coding change in Cycle 2603, possibly related to the 4.0° glide path or the recent runway re-designation (25 to 24), causing the GNS software to filter out the procedure.

Has anyone else noticed this "disappearing" approach at LSZG with the 2603 data? Is there a known workaround or a specific "flag" in the Jeppesen/Garmin source that triggers this filtering?

Thanks for your insights!

The approach should be valid.

The current Navigraph Charts shows the RNP 24 approach at LSZG. The glide path angle is depicted as 3.34 degrees rather than 4.0 degrees. The chart is dated 06 March 26 and is effective 19 March 26.

Could be a coding issue in the RXP nav data. I do not own the RXP product, so cannot verify.
