94Z Uknow arrival airport

I get this error when try planning a flight:

Searching in SB database the airport is founded:

… but the ICAO code has 4-letters and you see it also on your screenshot.

So, try C94Z please …

Cheers,
Richard

Yes, not 4 letters because it isn’t ICAO, is a FAA Identifier

… but according ARINC424 standard rules (and SimBrief follows these rules as all our apps/data) only ICAO format is valid. FAA is specific to USA partly CAN and it’s not a worldwide valid ID. So, add the C to build a valid ICAO id and all is good.

Thank you!
Then all airports without ICAO code aren’t in SB as FAA id, for all I must set a C letter before, right? Will always be with the letter c? it is to apply it to the database of my application.

Regards.

P.S: To missing airports with ICAO code, Should I post in General non MSFS data category ?
Thanks!

The rule for such FAA ids “translation” is:

add C - for canadian airports
add K - for US airports

There are only 3-letter FAA ids in these two parts in the world. All other countries follow the ICAO 4-letter standard.
