Irish Abbeyfeale Airfield (52° 23’ 44,93" N 9° 20’ 24,48" W) is completely missing on Simbrief and with other ICAO code (EIRE) on Navigraph Charts/Flight Planner. Both MSFS2020 and LNM data show it as EIAE.
Hello
That airport is not listed in the Ireland AIP
Navigraph, through Jeppesen, gets their data from official AIPs
But Navigraph Charts do show this aerodrome (with another ICAO code), although with sparse information:
There are two different things. One is a kind of “picrure”/tile which doesn’t come from the official AIRAC source and one is the real world data information.
In such case, check if you can select a runway … When you can’t (as in this case - Info → Runways are empty) you know it is not included in the data and therefore we can’t export it because nearly all addons/dataset accept only airport with at least one runway.
The reason why the runways are missing is in most cases due the lack on information from the AIP. That has nothing todo with us or our data provider - it’s a country issue.
Last, the runway idents on the tiles (on the map) are not always correct, due exactly the same reason. Same with the wrong/outdated ICAO code - its only a tile and not an official data record. So there are a lot of dependencies between map and data but airport data without runway data will not be exported.
Hope that helps
Richard
