Naive question #91  GNSS

A number of airports in Australia have GNSS/RNAV arrivals and departures.  They use waypoints that have different descriptions to the conventional waypoints.

Is it possible to get GNSS navdata, either for particular airports or for countries or...?

I would love to be able to use GNSS procedures, but at the moment I can't see how to programme them into the GPS or FMS.

If it is easy please be kind..

As in #90 you are asking very naive questions :o

Maybe the Australia VOZ 1.5 package can solve the problems?
If not, it's coming with better textures and real loveley scenery with aditional runways, ships, cars...


PS: There are some "building crashes" some 100 ft below the ground, I had to uncheck crash dedect :'(
I thing it' only a little fault for a great free adon

I am FSX so VOZ 1.5 is no use to me.

Anyway it is a scenery program not a navdata base.

I have watched some demonstrations of the new FTX scenery for temperate Australia being built by Orbx and it is fantastic. It is qualitatively better than photoreal scenery and will probably set a new standard in scenery design.

Voz 2.0 which I haven't fully comprehended, will I think provide airports upgraded, but still not the navdata base.  I will check with Navigraph as to whether they supply RNAV data.

However I did ask before I looked more carefully.  Navigraph does include some GNSS/RNAV waypoints - how completely I don't know.  I am away from my main computer so it will be a few days if their terminal procedures file has any plates that include GNSS waypoints.

HI guys

I have FSX on my comp. I have a question how to turn light on for the exterior of the aircraft like the logo lights and window lights? I try to fly at night the exterior of the aircraft has no lights except for landing lights. Can you teach me how??

Try L it turns some lights on, and SHIFT+L turns them all on.

I tried that most the lights come on except the logo lights and window lights. I don't why it didn't turn on.

Please reply

If this is the default 737, 777 and a few others the models are missing the lights, SP2 in a few weeks(or Acceleration now) fixes those aircraft. Prior to SP2 the mentioned aircraft have none of the mentioned lights. (known issue)

If you are talking about non-default planes, that would be an issue with the specific aircraft maker, not FSX
