Wrong runways LGPZ

Navigation Data General MSFS Data

I know the topic was already here, but it got cancelled. However, I have reasons to believe that the information provided as the answer then was wrong.
I have purchased via IniBuilds store the scenery of LGPZ airport for MSFS2024.
Immediately after the purchase, I have planned a flight to that airport. I am using Simbrief to plan the flights and Navigraph for all the monitoring, charts etc.
I am also using the Beyond ATC application for AI traffic control simulation. In case of yesterday’s flight it failed, and displayed the error, stating that they can not recognize the runway 24 in the destination airport.
I have checked the situation and it is quite bizarre.
The Simbrief -Navigraph data as well as Microsoft base data for that airport provide the runway number 24.
The “custom” scenery lists runways 25 L and R, which may be true to life, but not accurate according to Simbrief.

Here’s what I have found about the real runways configuration.
Current Runway ConfigurationAs per the most recent and authoritative sources:Runway 07L/25R: This is the primary runway, measuring approximately 9,419 feet (2,871 meters) in length and 148 feet (45 meters) in width, surfaced with asphalt. Check- Universal Aviation
Runway 07R/25L: This secondary runway is about 8,315 feet (2,532 meters) long and 90 feet (27 meters) wide, also surfaced with asphalt. Check also Tarmac-Aéro page
taromvirtual.roi
These designations align with the magnetic headings of approximately 068° for approaches from the east (Runways 07L/07R) and 248° for approaches from the west (Runways 25R/25L).

Conclusion
The current and accurate runway designations at Aktion National Airport are 07L/25R and 07R/25L. Discrepancies in some navigation databases may be due to outdated information.

Can I ask you to confirm that the change will be made for the benefit of the Simbrief/Navigraph users?

According to the official Greece AIP there is only RWY 06/24:

Nope, 07/25 are the outdated designators and one of the runways was turned into a taxiway.

The Jeppesen chart specifically references the modifications (bottom of the chart):

The changes seem to have occurred late May/early June 2024.

A virtual airline is rarely ever a reliable source, especially for any recent changes to an airport.

You should always try to reference the official AIP whenever possible. The official Greek AIP appears to be public:

Here’s the official ground chart for LGPZ showing the current layout for the airport:

The custom scenery must be outdated too.

Thank You. I have found the AIP. It looks like I need to claim the custom scenery producer to either repair or to refund the purchase.
Have a nice day.
