Thanks, Bert. If that's the case, you are right - little we can do about it.Mike

Hi there,I am wondering if there's any way to update the aged AIRAC data used to display airways on MFD.ThanksMike

Thanks a lot!Mike

Aaron,amazing to say the least! Kudos to you for this masterpiece! I am sure it will inspire many to throw out their old PCs and get upgrade to get decent performance in NGX.Cheers,Mike

My NAV DATA file only has positions of airports I have visited. There's no coordinates for runways, approaches or fixes there. Here's what I have added so far:NZIR-77.867400 167.802900EGAR-67.571536 -68.126828File to be edited: Microsoft Flight Simulator XPMDGNAVDATAAirports.dat

I have made a few flights in Antarctics. Went from Marambio to Rothera and then from Rothera to McMurdo in 737-600. Worked well for me to land on short gravel strips in both Marambio and Rothera. Adding custom waypoints to PMDG NAV database is easy. Flying by coordinates in FMC is also easy. in McMurdo I landed on the ice runway. Didn't have any problem with that but locating the runway was a challenge since TACAN there has limited range. Overall I liked the adventure and certainly would recommend to anyone considering taking their wings down to the South Pole wonderland.

Good job, Joel!To me this is tikun olam in action. :)Best regards,Mike

I had similar experience climbing out while enroute from Astana airport last night - steady 4000 feet/min climb in B737-600. Then while on final for runway 23R in Almaty airport I managed to maintain the 119 knots IAS with flaps 30. Not bad!I think my FPS have slightly improved in the VC. At least I seem to get fewer stutters.Regards,Mike Chirkov
