Hi, is there any way or program to update the GPS database on FS9?
Many thanks

As far as I know there is no 'central' GPS database. Items displayed by the GPS are defined in the AP######.bgl files (..\Scenery\\scenery\AP######.bgl). Each file defines airports, navaids, waypoints, etc., and approaches within a geographic area.

'Scruffyduck' has released ADE9X-RC1. I see that, like ADE (for FSX only),  ADE9X (for FS9 and FSX) has the 'Approach Mode' approach editor available in FS9 mode. Maybe this is just the tool you're looking for.

I will give it a go.
Thank You very much.
