MAP VIEW/AIRPORT FACILITIES

Postby ynot » Wed Jun 08, 2005 10:43 pm

Is there a file in the FS9 disks that I can use to create my own paper file by downloading the Airport Facilities information as shown when in Map View?  Sure would be easier than stopping my flights each time I approach my destination airport and get the ATIS info to the runway and I have to look up the ILS frequencies etc.

I don't have the direct answer but what you will see in the topic Arrival Charts may help.

There is also a program you can download from
http://www.flightsim.com/ called airchv50.zip which directly draw a map from the FS database.

also, as told in Arrival chart thread you can try final approach.

Hi... This is a great addon for flight simulator.  Its here

http://www.simviation.com/fs2004utilities4.htm

and its called

FS2004 FS Kneeboard Utilities 2004

When you use this addon you get excelent maps and radio frequencies that you can print off without having to access the map view and pause your flight.... Hope it helps

or if you want, go to www.airnav.com

they have the FAA diagrams for all towered airports ( i use them myself, so far have 37 airports) in PDF files.

but this isnt related to flight sim directly...

FS Navigator lets you do that. Instead of the limited map view you get in the default map, FSNav. lets you scroll around the world and find info on any airport in FS. It will even update the airports database for airports that you have added on. It's payware but a great addition to FS.
