EIDW (Dublin) 28L apt.dat required

Hello Colleagues

 

Since Dublin is building a new runway, 28 is now 28L and the apt.dat is outdated.


The entries should read something like 

I
1100 Generated by WorldEditor 1.6.0r1

1    242 1 0 EIDW Dublin

editing manually gives errors that the scenery may not look correct.

searching and replacing ALL references to 10 and 28 in the apt.dat with 10R and 28L respectively (except where these numbers are part of a lat or lon value obviously) seems to overcome the scenery error.

 

Updating  ...\Resources\default data\CIFP\EIDW.dat to change RW28 to RW28L and RW10 to RW10R might help, depending on your navdata configuration.

As always backup any files revised BEFORE saving changes. And this file may get overriden in a future X-Plane Update so a copy of the revised version might be handy to keep stored away.

 

In addition I've copy/pasted & amended the Navaid data for 28(L )and 10(R) into my custom user navdata 

...\Custom Data\User_nav.dat

As ever we'd greatly appreciate a minor tweak from Aerosoft to correct this officially in their excellent XP11 product.
