Propilot Event: Aeropostale Transatlantic Route

<< < (5/7) > >>

EHM-2387 Eric-Jan:
GO13 is located at N05.53415499 W027.97757990, which is roughly mid-way between V and SBFN.
Out of GVNP, follow a course of 218°Magnetic (use VOR SNT, 116.6 outbound radial 218 to correct for wind drift)
Once out of range of the VOR, remain as best you can on that heading, and your ADF should come alive when within 70 nm of the vessel.
Total distancee is about 625nm, if you take the shortest route, so that's a 4 hour flight at 160 knots.

The challenge is to maintain a heading for a couple of hours (!), and hope you do not miss the 70nm radius circle around the refueling station, or you'll be lost at sea, without fuel...
(8° off-track will get you lost)

EHM-2684 Andrew:
Hi.

My GO13 scenery is good and work, but GVNP not work (FSX)
I deleted scenery GVFM and I created GVNP by Airport Design Editor.
In FL GVNP-GO13 is not green.
In my FSX displays "FL4: Recording started for flight from GVFM to GO13"
I do not know what to do.
Flight Logger reinstalled and still the same.

EHM-2097 Andrei:
Hi,

This happens because in FSX you are supposed to have GVFM airport, not GVNP.

The easier solution, if you created your own scenery, is rename the airport as GVFM, put the BGL in <FSX root>\Additional Scenery\scenery folder (instead of creating a different folder - in order to bypass the known FSX scenery issue), restart FL4 and let it rebuild the airport index. This way you will have GVFM as a "known airport", just as expected by FL4.

If this doesn't work let me know, there is another solution as well, but I prefer to keep that as a last resort backup so I won't detail it yet.

EHM-2684 Andrew:
OK. I deleted own scenery GVNP and I restored original scenery GVFM.
I rebuilt airport index in FL.
GVNP-GO13 is still not green

EHM-2097 Andrei:
OK then the issue here is GO13 not GVNP or GVFM.

Please check my post above, in reply to your earlier post, in which I explained how things should work after you install the scenery. Regarding to that post, try to explain what went as I said, and what did not. Most important, up to now you didn't say anything about FL4 rebuilding the scenery index - OR not.

Also, after writing down what happens, locate and attach the EHMLOCAL-1.7.DB3 file (of the CORRESPONDING FS installation, if you are using several of them) so that I can see it.
