olmo 5 Posted May 20, 2014 Share Posted May 20, 2014 PFPX's FIRs data is already becoming outdated and unfortunately it's not part of the available AIRAC cycles. I have just asked Navigraph if they would be able to provide the needed data on this thread (readable only by registered users). It would be nice if FlightSimSoft would also get in touch with them (and even with Aerosoft) trying to push forward a feasible solution. In the meantime I've been "wasting" some of my spare time by retriving from the appropriate AIS publications FIRs data and updating them through "manual input". So far I have redone the Brazilian Airspace, updated the Jeddah-Bahrain (OEJD-OBBI) boundaries, Almaty-Astana (UAAA-UACC), renamed SOOO to Cayenne, enlarged Samara (UWWW), Krasnoyarsk (UNKL) and others inside the Russian airspace. If FlightSimSoft doesn't mind, once I'm done I will be more that willing to share the update as a temporary solution while waiting for an official update.

While we wait for an official answer from FlightSimSoft and Navigraph about a possibile update I can tell you that all the FIR data is stored inside a text file named FIR.dat and located in the PFPX program folder. The file can be easily modified (even with Notepad) but generally it's really a matter of collecting data and paste it in the right format. I wouldn't even suggest you to start your own project since if FlightSimSoft will give their approval I'll share the update. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Checkursix 3 Posted May 20, 2014 Share Posted May 20, 2014 I agree these data should be part of the regular navdata updates. I'm pretty sure Navigraph does have these data available as they are regularly updated in Jeppview and JeppFD and Ng gets their data from Jeppesen.

Checkursix 3 Posted June 4, 2014 Share Posted June 4, 2014 Richard confirmed this is possible, so I hope it will be implemented soon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
olmo 5 Posted June 12, 2014 Author Share Posted June 12, 2014 The update has been completed and as promised in my previous post I will be more than happy to share it. But before release I just want to make sure to get FlightSimSoft's approval. I will file a ticket and let you know ASAP about the outcome. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
olmo 5 Posted June 13, 2014 Author Share Posted June 13, 2014 The file will be made part of the next PFPX update. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
