Title: Preferred Payloads MPHO Problem Navdata FMC Cycle 11/10
Post by: TOM130 on September 26, 2011, 16:23:59

Hi,

I am having a strange problem.

I want to fly from MHTG to MPHO.

The routefinder has no problem with MPHO.

Same cycle (11/10) like my updated navdata in the FMC (PMDG 744).

But If I type MPHO as destination I get 'not in database'. I have checked the airports.dat, the same, this airport is not there.

Does anyboday know of this problem?

Greets

Tom

I think I have found the reason.

Please correct me if I am wrong.

MPHO was closed in 1999 and re-opened as MPPA later. Coordinates are almost the same.

I think I choose MPPA and fill the ILS frequency manually.

Hi Tom,

You are correct, however, we have to stay with MPHO as MPPA is not in FSX.

Cheers,

Ted
