SB Route offering missing WP/Airway

Hi,

I have a route from EGPH to LFDH (AIRAC cycle 2605).

The route offered by SB contains an invalid WP/Airway “BAMBO”.

I know I can just delete it and generate the flight, no issue to me, just letting you know. :slight_smile:

Kind regards, Neil.

Hi Neil,

EGPH-LFDG is an incredibly rare route that few users have flown, so there aren’t any good routes in SimBrief’s database. I do see that you generated EGPH-LFPG afterwards, which gave you a valid route due to being much more popular.

SimBrief has good route coverage for 99% of flights that users fly, but on certain rare routes there can be issues such as the one you saw.

For Navigraph Unlimited subscribers (Charts + Navigation Data), SimBrief will actually generate a fresh route from scratch for you if it doesn’t have a good route in the database. But this is a more advanced feature that is not available with a Navigation Data only subscription, since it relies on our Charts backend.

As I said, for 99% of flights this won’t be an issue anyways, but it is possible to see occasional route errors on rarely flown flights if you do not have a Navigraph Unlimited subscription.

Best regards,

Hi,

In effect you are saying that SimBrief found an old route that utilised a now non-existent waypoint or airway called “Bambo”?

Regards, Neil.
