Double Airports in Alaska

Navigation Data Airport Scenery
1

I’m having a weird bug where there are two airports for the same field, with slightly different IACO identifiers, parking spaces, and generally overlapping runways. Some are slightly positioned differently but all are within a mile of each other. I’ve also confirmed these runways don’t exist in real life, I just don’t know where they’re being created. These aren’t 3rd party fields, I’ve checked my community folder, even checked the MSFS packages and can’t figure out why they’re being duplicated slightly different. I’ve even confirmed none of them are available as 3rd party airports so something is creating an error between the stock airport and what is being generated in game. I tried to do the priority reorder for Navigraph and it didn’t change anything. So far I’ve only noticed this in Alaska, but it’s possibly in other locations as well. Maybe an error between base libraries? I just can’t figure out how to get rid of the duplicate/wrong ones. I’m not positive this is a navigraph issue, but I don’t recall having them like this before I had navigraph and am just trying to fix my game. Thoughts?

Locations I’ve identified:

Nightmute PAGT/IGT

Tununak POKA/4KA

Chevak PAVA/VAK

Kotlik PFKO/KOT

Manokotak PAMB/17Z

New Stuyahok PANW/KNW

Crooked Creek PACJ/CJX

Hi,
Without knowing which SIM you are using, there are no 3-letter codes in our data, so I assume the 3-letter codes are from the SIM.

The logic behind this is that we “create” only airports that are not included in the sim. The key is the 4-letter airport ICAO identifier, which is international. Therefore, I guess you’re seeing double airports because of different airport IDs.

Three-letter codes are usually IATA codes, but they are not typically used on aircraft.

Sorry, that’s nothing we can fix because we need the airport ID as a reference. When it’s different, the builder creates a new airport.

Hope that helps
Richard

Sorry this is MSFS 2020, while troubleshooting I just totally uninstalled Navigraph cleared the cache and it’s still duplicated. I think they’re copied in some microsoft world update but I can’t find them to delete them. Sorry for the hassle.
