FBFT/FBPM Nav Data

Good Afternoon, my issue is a bit hard to explain so please bare with me.

I discovered previously in this forum ( ATR 72 not using up to date AIRAC/Navigraph AIRAC ) that FBPM is msfs 2020+2024 is mislabeled/missing runways making the approaches, SIDS, STARS, etc for the airport unusable in FMS’s in the sim.

However FBFT (the old ICAO code) is up to date with the correct runways, however Navigraph doesn’t supply any sids/stars it, as it doesnt really exist anymore.

I have tried reporting this on the msfs forums but it was reported long, long ago and yet nothing has been done to fix it.

If possible would it be able to transfer, copy the sids/stars/approach’s/taxi charts etc from the new ICAO FBPM, to the old one FBFT (Which is on navigraph and the flight sim already), quite frankly I am not sure how navigraph data works, but if this is at all possible it would be greatly, greatly appreciated and allow me to finally properly fly to the airport on vatsim.

Much appreciated!

Edit: found a user who faced a similar issue, https://forum.navigraph.com/t/missing-navigraph-data-for-fbft-francistown/6932/3 , this would fix the issue we both are facing, that is, if it is even possible.

Hi,
Thank you very much for your report/question.

No, sorry, it is not possible to “transfer” data from current/effective airports to outdated airports. As ASOBO/MS with Lido, we also use a real-world database from Jeppesen to update the sim and its addons.

The better approach is to inform the 3rd-party scenery designer to use the correct/effective ICAO code for this airport, but changing real-world data to support a non-existent ICAO code is the wrong approach, and we may not do this. Sorry for that.

Cheers
Richard
