I guess it has been posted hundreds of time before... sorry for repeat, but I cannot find in the search.

Any ideas on where to download the Pilot's handbook in electronic format, the one with all the airports runways, frequencies of ILS and approaches charts ?

Thanks,
Simone :)

I didn't know there was such a document but I'd be very interested in getting it.  It must  be huge, with all the airports, runways, frequencies, ILS data, etc.

Sounds kind of like FSNav.

 You might try Jeppesens website, or search on google, if you look on Ebay you can get a copy of AOPA's Airport directory, but the one I have only covers the U.S.
 Good luck finding an airport directory that covers the whole world, it would be in several volumes I'm sure, let us know if you find one.

Hi Andrew... ;D..!
...but it's much smaller, cheaper, instant, and more compact than filling up your bedroom with zillions of Jeppesen charts covering every singe airport, airfield, frequencies, etc, in the whole world... :o...!
....It's the best "two-pennyworth" I have ever spent on any Flight Sim add-on... ;)...!
...and I wouldn't be flying FS 2000/2002/2004 without it now... 8)...!
...trust me... ;D...!

Cheers Andrew... ;D...!
Paul.

As far as Approach and Departure charts, there use to be an AWESOME web site clearanceunlimited.com that had a search and PDF files of almost any airport you could think of in the US. The were great jeppesen look alikes in PDF format. I still have some but would like to know how to get some more. I guess that site went belly up. There is a pay site at echoflight.com. its only $5 per quater or $20 for the year and I think there are unlimited downloads. Might be something to check out. If anyone knows what happened to all the ones at clearance unlimited please let me know.
