TraineeHi,
It's really strange as I've done this before without any problems but this time around it won't work!
The problem is with installing SID/STAR data into the Level D 767 FMC. I previously used the Navdata website and downloaded an all-in-one and I don't recall any issues with the process. Incidentally, the reason I'm doing it over again is as a result of a full system recovery.
Once the "all-in-one" is downloaded WinRAR opens the download and displays the following files:
approaches
sids
stars
nadata_sidstar_readme.txt
Clicking on the readme you'd expect to get some instruction on what to do and where to do it. Not in this case - it seems to be only the credits. Opening one of the other files you can see lots of airport specific data but the file formats don't match those within Level D'd navdata file in FS9. Obviously I don't wnat to copy/paste any unusual files into there. Also, with this download there is no data for UK airports - and I recall that there were with the previous update.
I've tried e.mailing navdata but no response as yet.
So basically the questions?
1.Does anyone know where to extract these files or what to do with them?
2. Failing the above, can anyone suggest another website where I might find SID/STAR data for Level D?
Any help or advice is much appreciated.
Thanks guys.
Dan
P.S. I did used the same website for my PMDG all-in-one and there were no problems whatsoever - I simply extracted the files directly to the relevant PMDG folder.
