what do I overlook

[the_nick]

I want to fly from EBBR to EGLL (heathrow) with an 737-700 pmdg when I enter in the FMC EGLL and go to the dep/arr there are no
runways , also when I open fsnavigator I don't see on the airport the ILS frequencies and I know that heatrow has them (scenery UK2000)
my airac data is from august 07 and the scenery is older so I don't think there is the problem. could there be another cause for this ?

Hi ya Nick...did you run the scenery database in FS Nav when you added UK2000? Sometimes FS Nav doesn't recognize an airport
because of the AFCAD. I've had this happen before with VHHX. You have to rename the AFCAD , for example:
zzzAF2_VHHX.bgl. I had to do the same for FlightZones's Portland AFCAD as well. Always put the "zzz" in front of the AFCAD name if it
doesn't show in FS Navigator.

As far as the FMC goes, maybe it's missing the text file?

that's probably the point where it went wrong , I did first the database and then I did the UK2000 scenery so I will maka the database
again. but what is the purpose of the zzz infront ?

As far as the FMC goes, maybe it's missing the text file?

what kind of text file

thx in adv Joe

I've reinstalled the scenery and re-made the database but still there are no ILS signals

Drew asked a very good question. I'm just wondering if the AFCAD is where it's suppoose to be within the addon scenery or if it's some
place else.

I have no idea why zzz works in getting FS Nav to recognize the airport but it sure works

I believe the text file is vital for the FMC to recognize the SID/STAR for the particular airport and is found in the PMDG SID/STAR folder. If it's
missing, you may have to search for one.

I downloaded the afcad from the site ( uk2000_fs9_heathrowPRO_AFCAD ) but where do I have to place afcad files ? I placed it already
everywere, I placed the files in the map from UK200 where there is written af2_high but no result then in the map UK2000 heathrow
scenery also no result , I have also just flight traffic 2005 and also there I placed those afcad files wih no result. when I re-start fs he
builds the scenery. and this has no effect either

[the_nick]

maybe I found it but I'll let you know then , thx for pushing me in the right direction

the ILS problem is solved , I forgot to update my fsnavigator to the 4.7 3 days ago I reinstalled everything and probably I forgot this .
I've also updated my airac and everything works back fine , even other things that didn't work before
