MISSING NAV-AIDS SCENERY FOR SOUTHERN PACIFIC AND AUSTRALIA FS5.1 DEFAULT
SCENERY VERSION 1.0
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
(read also the IMPORTANT note ate the end of this txt)
The default Fs5.1 world scenery is including a lot of airports and a lot
of navigational aids.
But most of the navaids (VOR and NDB) are still missing.
With the help of JEPPESEN, the biggest company specialized in distributing
navigational data, I started making scenery files containing ONLY the missing
VOR's and NDB's in the fs5.1 world.
JEPPESEN exclusively provided me with the needed data files under the
restriction that the data would only be used for non commercial scenery's
for PC flightsimulation. (The database is dated February 1995)
So take the copyright instruction included to the files very serious: in that
way we can keep Jeppesens permission to use the database.
This release is covering the SOUTHERN PACIFIC including a big part of Eastern
Asia!
Magnetic Variation is in this part of the navaids collection OK.
I also included the settings for VOR only, VOR/DME and DME only.
You will find some DME only navaids in New Zealand (f.i. near Queenstown:
Alexandra, LX 117.1)
As the area coverage will not be clear to everybody I will list the included
Countries here:
ASM PAGOPAGO
AUS AUSTRALIA
BRN BRUNEI
CHL Chile/Isla de Pascua
COK Cook Islands
FJI Fiji
IDN Indonesia
KIR Kiribati
MYS Malaysia
NCL New Caledonia
NIU Niue
NRU Nauru
NZL New Zealand
PNG Papua New Guinea
PYF French Polynesia
SGP Singapore
SLB Solomon I.
TON Tonga
TUV Tuvalu
VUT Vanuatu
WLF Wallis Is.
WSM Western Samoa
INSTALLATION:
Just copy the file SPANAV.BGL to your favorite homerbrew scenery directory and
if you don't use the OzPack Australia scenery you should also copy AUSNAV.BGL
to that place.
CREDITS:
I used SCASM vers. 1.27 to compile the stuff. Thanks to Manfred Moldenhauer!
I used the file NAV.ZIP from Phil Saitta (MicroSoft) to exclude the in FS5.1
included nav-aids.
NAV.ZIP includes the FS5.1 nav-aid information.
IMPORTANT:
I did a quick test on this stuff and all seems to work fine.
Testing, locating and checking all included nav-aids would take a LOT
of time.
That's why I am asking YOU to test the file and to report me:
-if you are missing nav-aids
-if you find double nav-aids
-if you encounter database errors
-if you have suggestions for enhancements
-if you know the correct fs5.1 magn.deviation around the world.....
Please send bug reports, including exact (lat/lon) position of the problem,
name of the navaid, etcetera, to:
