Update for RAD-Restrictions and Directs


Recommended Posts

*** With kind permission of PFPX-Support ***

 

Hello,

 

in the folder "Update 1601" you can find updated/new files for RAD-Restrictions and directs, incl. all changes from AIRAC 1406 till AIRAC 1601. With all these chages PFPX can generate different routes for Europe - for different daytimes and days.

Subsequent a list of new nav-files:

 

  • BALKANS - Croatia, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Serbia, Montenegro
  • DKSE FAB - Denmark und Sweden
  • EYVL Free Route Airspace - Lithuania
  • FRAMAK - Maastricht UIR und Karlsruhe UIR
  • LSAS - Switzerland
  • NEFAB - Norway, Finland, Estonia, Latvia
  • UKRAINE - Ukraine

 

The FRAMaK-area has more directs, but they couldn't be implemented, because non-valid routes would be generated then

 

Note:

To benefit from all changes I suggest using AIRAC 1513 or newer

 

Installation

 

  • You can do a backup of "C:\Users\Public\Documents\PFPX Data" first (optional)
  • copy RAD.dat to "C:\Users\Public\Documents\PFPX Data"
  • copy all nav-files to "C:\Users\Public\Documents\PFPX Data\NavData"

 

Expect next update 1602 on February 6th/7th. 

 

Regards

David

Hello,

 

"Update 1603" is now available in the download section.

Please make sure, you read the readme file inside.

Downloaded and installed update 1603.rar and got the same message you did when I started PFPX. Fortunately this is on a second computer which I don't actually use for simming. I will try and figure it out in the next couple of days/

I got rid of the error message by copy/past of navdata.nav from the Backup folder to the NavData folder, However it looks like you already have that file in the NavData folder. I can't tell from your screenshot. Make sure navdata.nav is in the NavData folder. If that doesn't work, I would do what Stephen Cooke recommends.

To clarify the installation of David's files:

 

You should remove all .nav files provided by me, and distributed via PFPX except for the AIRAC file navdata.nav

 

Install Davids files as instructed.

 

It would appear David has merged my files in to the FAB areas, you must not retain both sets as doing so will cause deletions within the files when you start PFPX.

Hi,

 

sorry for any trouble caused by update instruction. I edited step 2 in readme and reuploaded all files.

Those of you, who already fixed this issue as advised by scrooke, you dont't need to download again.

 

 

Regards

David

So i'm moving all files and just leaving the .navdata file ?

 

That is correct, in addition you may wish to retain UserData.nav if you have created your own direct entries.

 

Then add all files from David,

They are not routes, direct links not forming part of the AIRAC.

 

A PFPX route requires validating if you so choose, even CFMU 'proposed' routes are not valid until submitted and adjusted to meet requirement as required.

Hi, thanks for this work. Two things I would like to underline:

- the updated file reuploaded is quite a bit barely visible because it is in the lower part of the post instead of the much visible button on the upper right with written Download this file that is linked to the older 1603 file.

- In my NavData folder I found 27 files, instead in the updated pack there are only 18 files. Apart for the 3 files cycle.txt, cycle_info.txt (from the AIRAC update) and Navdata.nav that has to be retained, it seems to be missing other 6 files.

 

What is not clear to me?
