For some odd reason I am getting two airports at two elevations. I have the orbx products and they indicated that the airports are not in the default FSX
Quote: " Therefore some other software is adding the spurious runway, probably software that updates the default airports."
Could this be caused by the NavData updates?

Indeed WA05 has been renamed 8W5 in my updates. It is not a "spurious" change since it is the same airport whose ICAO id was reassigned some time ago. However, this airport only includes a single runway.
If you do not wish the change to be effective, locate the modified APX15150.bgl file in your ..\scenery\0101\scenery folder. Check that you also have the backup of the original file (APX15150.bgl.ilsbckup). If so, delete the new file and rename the backup as APX15150.bgl. Then it will be WA05 again. You will loose some ILS updates
In next update (1807), I will cancel this change (useless considering default airport is not modelized at all)

Is there a way I could send you a picture? I just don't get why there are two runways one on top of another with one slightly offset at a different angle. I don't WA05 if has been updated to 8W5. I also do not know why they are showing up in my airport list if they are not default?? is that because of the orbx scenery?
What do I do to delete WA05 in favor of K8W5?

Hello Fabio,
I presume OrbX scenery (I do not have) should exclude the default WA05 runway. Difficult to answer you regarding the dual rwy display and the problem you have in the list. Did you first perform the change I suggested? Let me know and send me pictures via my regular email..Will see if I have an idea and/or a suggestion for solving that

I did try your suggestion and it worked. It eliminated the second superimposed runway. I did not want to mitigate the benefits of your software updates.
Thank you Herve.

It was fun not having the campers not chase me anymore. LOL I had an ILS Conflict with MYF and I used the BGL scanner (are you proud of me?) and found that orbx lists it as the wrong freq despite your update to be correct. I did not think that orbx is motivated to fix it or that simply I do not understand how it works. Maybe orbx just uses the FSX Default which is now old and wins over your update.  by the way... 8W5 is the runway and WA05 is a Heliport now in a different location? it is very confusing. 8W5 www.airnav.com/airport/8W5WA05 www.airnav.com/airport/WA05 |
