Dear Herve,
thanks again for clearing this up.
What you say confirms what I now have learned by testing your data inside FSX. (In real life I am a private Pilot also (I guess you are one too) but I do not have an IFR-Rating.)
Quote: "I suspect that flying the correct magnetic course (215.8°) will just maintain the needle centered otherwise it will not. That's what the needle is for (taking into account the calibration). So certainly if you leave SXC to GOATZ on a 213° radial, needle will go off right and you will have to correct "
In FSX it is just like you described above. This is something I really did not know yet, so I initially thought that there must be something wrong with the data.
But now it all makes sense.
So thank you again for your efforts in bringing this work to the simmers !
Best Regards
Robert

I installed the North America region. Before that I made copies of Scenery files 0000, 0001, 0003, 0100, 0101, 0102, 0200, 0201, 0202, 0301, 0302 and 0401. Then I used the automatic installer
But the result was I lost ALL my ILS approaches. I now have Visual, GPS, RNAV, VOR. I tried the Uninstall but that did not work. No where could I find a *.ilsbckup file. I restored the files from my backups. Then I tried the Manual Install. The same results - No ILS approaches available.
I do have ORBX scenery installed. FTX Global, PNW, CRM but NOT Vectors
I feel that I am not doing right but I can not figure out what that is. I did read the FAQ but I could not find the answer.

As indicated, if you performed a manual install, first step is to make a full restore from your backup and to start from it After that, you'll be able to use the automatic installer (now and for future updates) otherwise, things could go wrong. When launching the installer, and before replacement confirmation, the program will indicate how many files will be replaced (please provide me this information so I check everythnig is ok. Should be 181 unless some default files are missing). Then accept replacement. Replaced files will be saved with a .ilsbckup extension so you will be able to uninstall if needed. On next use of automatic installer, only newest files will be replaced (it means that if you launch it a 2nd time, after installing, files to be replaced should read 0!). Let me know (and if you prefer, use my email -> hsors(at)hotmail.com
Regards
Hervé (PS There's no specific instructions in my forum FAQ on that but things are explained in the included readme.txt file)

Hello, reputable Herve Sors. I inform you, that NDB Ameland 358 WO does not work. It is a course 075 degrees 10 nm from the EHAL airport on the Sky Vector map. Maybe you know how to correct it. Thanks for your work. Excuse me, if I did something wrong.

You did nothing wrong ;-) This NDB has been decomissioned some time ago. It is not any more referenced in EH AIP, Jeppesen and Lido databases. SkyVector is not a reliable and official reference
