Hello, with the AIRAC cycle 2509, all STARs and APPs for VQPR (PARO) have disappeared in Navigraph/Simbrief. Due to the difficult terrain around the airport, it is literally impossible to fly airliners to this location from today on. Will this be fixed? Gretings from Germany Stefan

VQPR data/charts have been officially withdrawn and are therefore no longer available. AIRAC-AIP-AMDT-01_2025.pdf 2.17 MB Thank you Richard

Servus Stefan, We never offered any terminal procedure for VQPR (Paro). I have now looked back at AIRAC 2401—no procedures for this airport were included. So they have not disappeared; they are simply not existing. The reason seems to be that the AIP Bhutan doesn´t provide such information; theref…

But can we just have that back in? Paying for unlimited subscription and having one of the most fun and challenging approach in the world just vanish is kinda fun breaking…

But that’s the real world - you expect real-world data/charts, and we offer it - you pay for it and get it. We did not make this decision, nor did we filter it out. It was a decision made by the government of Bhutan. That has nothing to do with the data provider; no data provider (including Lido) l…

Sure the data alone would be fine ,charts we can dig the old records for the unrealistic challenges, but the missing of the nav data for approaches is really sad, please add back the data points and approaches SID data back, thanks

Having the data back in a future cycle would be nice, especially if no new (official) approaches are added to replace them. Regards, Tim

Hi Richard, thank you for your explanation. I just wonder how pilots in the real-world approach VQPR today. Any ideas without NAVData and Charts? Is there a way to reimport/overwrite those older NAVData and Charts for this particular airport into SimBrief and NaviGraph Charts? Greetings from Germa…

Hi MIchael, We plan to add the VQPR procedures as tailored records in the data. As I have mentioned here , not the charts. Hope that helps, Richard

They have their own local VFR procedure. So what they put in into the FMS only TAKTI and then PRO and then PR and then after that is route discontinuity. Latest Just Planes video in Paro has the captain explain their company VFR procedure. No airline ever use the RNP AR procedure as far as i know un…
