No airports outside of USA?

[Aonang]

Hi All,
I suspect that I have corrupted the airport database, as PSX no longer recognises airfields outside of the USA.
This is likely to have happened while updating to the current AIRAC with 'navburo'. I used the FAA master database, which it seems only has data on US airfields. 
Is there a default global airport database that I can download?

Thanks

Mike

Hi Mike,

the default database is in your PSX.

Solution:

• Open Navburo
• In Step 1, in the drop-down menu, select your FAA database that you already made, then click Reload
• In Step 6, deselect "Block all fillings". (It is important to allow fillings from the default database; they fill the rest of the world outside the USA and Pacific with data from the default database. So do not block these fillings.)
• Click Autostart

Thank you, Hardy, I'll do that.

Thanks Hardy, it is OK now.

Hi Hardy,
I have recently installed FAA NAV database in my custom folder with Navburo. It is the only one in this folder. When I select the FAA database in the instructor page, I have problems with some airports (Canada and South America). Airport respective SIDs/STARs/APPs are properly listed in the FMC. But when loaded, most waypoints are missing with lots of route discontinuities. I tried CYUL, MMMX, SKRG and SKBO. Everything becomes normal when I select the default database in the instructor page.
Another thing strange: SKBO SID ABL 3K with default database becomes ABL 2K with FAA database.
I did exactly what you wrote on your post above, but nothing changes.
Same problem wih my laptop.

Hi, the FAA database just contains USA & Pacific. If you want Navburo to keep the rest of the world from the PSX default database, you need to deselect the checkbox "Block all fillings" in step 6.

Hardy, that's what I did this morning but no change.

[Hardy Heinlin]

Sorry, without data I can't help. I'm hearing of such a problem the first time.

Is anything in "-Custom/Misc/navErrors.txt"?

[Cbf]

Only "[Aerowinx Navburo - Exceptions]" and then blank in that file.

[Hardy Heinlin]

Does your FAA master file include airports and procedures outside the USA & Pacific area?

[Cbf]

When I use the FAA database, I have the same problem in some US airports.

[Hardy Heinlin]

Are you sure you downloaded the latest FAA database and not an FAA database from the distant past?

[Cbf]

I installed 2503 cycle. I will install latest ASAP.

[Cbf]

Same with 2507 cycle.

Below an example with RNV 19 transition SKIDD at KSZL.

[Hardy Heinlin]

What cycle is your default database from Navblue?

[Cbf]

It's 2105.
I have created a new navigation folder with FAA 2507 as default database. There is no custom database.
It is still the same.

[Hardy Heinlin]

Well, you shouldn't do that. You destroyed the system.

[Cbf]

I have a back up of the folder.
