Hi, I have downloaded the AIRAC 2109 via the FMS Data Manager into X-Plane 11.55r2. I verified that the download was correct in the custom data folder. I started to enter a flight plan from KRDG to KFFX. I entered the origin and destination airfields into the GNS530 with no problem. Then I selected PROC and SELECT APPROACH. I immediately got an error message, “Procedures could not be loaded. Missing waypoint RW01.” On the GNS530 it showed NONE under approaches. So I decided to start a new flight at KFFX on RW01. There was no problem and my aircraft appeared as expected on RW01. So I started another flight back at KRDG and again went to program the flight plan and again got the same error.
Out of curiosity I checked the Navigraph CIFS file for KFFX and compared to the default X-Plane CIFS and noticed that at the bottom the runways were completely different. Navigraph had RW’s 01, 10, 19, 28 while the default data had RW’s 09, 18, 27, 36.
I am confused as to why I get an error saying RW01 for KFFX does not exist, while when I set up a flight at KFFX on that same runway there is no problem. To add to the confusion is the erroneous default data.
Thanks for replying. I am not sure what you and I are doing differently or what differs between our configurations. So I updated X-Plane and allowed it to install all of the files it likes. Prior to updating I renamed my custom scenery, custom data, output folders, and plugin folders so that X-Plane installed the clean version of these folders. So at this point I am using all X-Plane default data.
Then I start X-Plane set up a new flight at KFFX. I load KFFX in the FMS as origen, then press ARR/DEP. What I get is the following.
Then I installed my Navigraph data in the Custom Data folder following the same procedure I get the following.
Does this help you at all? How are you getting something that I am not? What could be different between your install and mine? Could it be the aircraft? What aircraft are you using? I believe they all use the same FMS don’t they?
I attempted to report on the X-Plane Scenery Gateway. I had to register in order to get access to reporting an issue. I successfully registered and then logged in. After filling out all of the information to report a runway issue and clicking on “Report Issue” I got the message “You are not authorized to perform this operation”. Do you happen to know how I can get authorized to report an issue?
I think you can log a report without logging in. If you search on KFFX you will find several reports from “unknown users” about missing runways at KFFZ: [Bug reports | X-Plane Scenery Gateway ]
(Bug reports | X-Plane Scenery Gateway)
Not sure how to report without logging in. If I don’t log in all the buttons for reporting a problem disappear. I did see somewhere that it takes a few days before you become “authorized” to report. Not sure why, but I guess they have their reasons. Anyways I’ll just check back in a few days and see it I am “authorized.”
