Yes, you are right. Well observed!😀 This is on our list for the next update. We have noticed this too. Unfortunately this happened when we changed the working order of EFB's scanning for airports. And thank you for your kind compliments!

In fact, ATM there is not much we can do. If ORBX's Boss decides that RWY12/30 in YSCB Canberra is a new, NON-AIRAC and NON-ICAO Airport ZSCB then be it that way. To fight with him about such an issue is as useless as fighting with Laminar's Boss on X-Plane issues. Rule #1 applies to both of them: They are the best all over the world and they are alwyays right! Should a rare case show up where they are not right, then automatically Rule #1 applies...🤣 I will see whether I can issue a new AFCAD including both runways. Unfortunately this ZSBC airport also features different parking spots that do not coincide with those of YSCB. Furthermore the configuration settings of YSCB use different basic AFCAD configurations (Ground polygons, RWY only, Static airplanes on or off etc) which might then be lost. ATM the only solution is to deactivate the ORBX_ZSCB_APX.BGL. This way of course RWY 12/30 is lost. Procedures for this RWY (one DEP and one ARR) are lost anyway, as they cannot be attached to the airport ZSCB.

Ray, I just checked my ORBX installation and indeed ORBX has "invented" a new airport by adding a BGL named ZSCB for RWY 12/30. Not really a good idea. It also appears in the P3D airport directory! I'll see what we can do to overcome this. In fact ORBX is always good for their own "engineering" ideas where they don't give a d*** what others so. We'll find a solution for that sooner or later.

Ray, you must have a mix-up in your installation. there is no ZSCB existing in China. If it shows up in your database, you must have an installation pointing to that ICAO Code (apparently a Typo YSCB ->ZSCB). To me it looks like a modified afcad BGL lurking around somewhere. A possible way to find the culprit is to place the A/C to a point where the it is apparently on the ZSCB airport and then look into the Info (i) Window to check the active file.

There is no difference between Free Trial and Licensed version. Free trial just ends after 30 days.

Difficult to say what the real culprit is. I just made a short flight planning LSZH-EDDS by PFPX, transferred into EFBv2 by uplink and saw the following: (admittently using P3D V4 and not FSX, however basic handling of flight plans is identical): EFBv2 FlightPlan: P3DV4 FlightpPlanner: ActiveSky: So all in all every flightplan showed up where it was expected to be. For ActiveSky however a "resend GPS Route" may become necessary if ActiveSky is started AFTER Flight Planning was completed. The above result was achieved by doing the Flight Setup in the following order: - ActiveSky started - PFPX started for Initial planning - during Planing EFB v2 was started (Server, Client) - after completing PFPX planning, FlightPlan was transferred to EFB v2 by uplink - SID and STAR added to EFB v2 FlightPlan - P3Dv4 started This was done on my Office Setup with PFPX, EFBv2, P3DV4 and ActiveSky all on the same machine. I haven't tested yet on different layouts, especially with a networked configuration. We would be interested to see detailed Planning Procdures (as described above) on other machines. Maybe we can find a setup where specific items are gone missing. The fact that ActiveSky does not find the proper FlightPlan and that ATC does not find it either could be a common issue. However we need some more infornation about your Computer setups and the way a Flight Planning is done. The current FlightPlan is always written to the standard FlightPlan directory of either FSX or P3D and is named "EFB_current_gps.pln".

Hi Geoff, It's just because you mentioned build #106 in your previous summary: Are you aware that EFB V2.1 does not support FS9 anymore? See here: https://www.aivlasoft.com/specifications.html

Two short answers: - About the profile: TOD is not used by the GPS. It is displayed on the route depiction. See the manual for details. - Check the latest downloads here. https://www.aivlasoft.com/download.html You might note that build #106 is not really the most recent.

Hi George, Thank you for the Support files. However there is still one important information missing: Where do you display the Client? On a second screen? in this case: What is the size and the arrangement of all your screen? Are you aware of the minimum requirements for a possible scond screen to be as per specifications to be read here: https://www.aivlasoft.com/specifications.html Screen Resolution: Minimum 1280 x 960 is required.

Hi Cedic, it's exactly the way you descibe. ATM the database providers do not include so-called "circling approaches" in their dataset. There are quite a number uf such approaches throughout the whole world. Even .e.g the LOC/DME at KASE is NOT tied to the RWY either (according to the official FAA data, as can be seen on the Screenshot attached), but for any unknown reason it is designed as LOC/DME15 in the Navigraph dataset und thus appears on EFB v2. Neverthless EFB v2 would be ready to display "Circling Approaches" as soon as they are included in the regular dataset.

Hi Roger, As all the airports mentioned in your list have relatively short runways (<1000m) I strongly presume that your actual profile is for an aircraft requiring a longer runway. Either you choose another Aircraft or you deactivate the button "PRFL Filter" in the Airport Selection menu. All these airports are of course normally available. BTW, whether an airport is available or not is depending on the simulator, not on EFB 😀 They may just be filtered by the above mentioned Profile Filter.

It seems that the feature "Run as Admin" is still rather unknown and many users are not aware of how to achieve this without any additional clicks, once the properties are correcty set up (Example below (left) from German Win10 Version, (right) from English Win10): - Open the "Properties" box by right clicking the application and choosing "Properties" in the drop-down menu - Select the "Compatibility" Tab and check the box "run as Admin" and close the the Properties Box with the "Apply" button

Sorry if this might sound a bit stupid: Why would no need to type ANY password to start an application as Admin??? The only thing you need is to check the respective box in the properties/Compatibility box (sorry for publishing a Screenie of a German version) and your application will start as Admin FOREVER!!

It's all here: https://www.aivlasoft.com/download.html It might be worth downloading it from the same site...😀

It's not a problem but an occurrence that can happen with the Demo License. It is described here: https://forum.aivlasoft.com/topic/2813-could-not-reach-any-date-server-port-13/

Because no one source of magnetic variation is the same and can differ by quite some amount. Every state is allowed to use its own source and there is only an ICAO recommendation to update variation and station declination of navaids every year ending with -5 or -0 (zero). Every source can be used as long as it is shown somewhere on the map. GPS's and onboard navigation systems hold their own declination tables as do the various simulators. Furthermore e.g. LOC bearings are defined as magnetic bearings, recalculated to true bearings by using the magnetic variation noted in the respective state publication. You will always see a difference within different sources. No chance to overcome this unless the whole (real world) navigation is based on true bearings. Not sure when this will ever be introduced. the good thing is: whatever navigation tool you use, you will always reach your destination, regardless whether variation is absolutely correct or not😀

Reboot your computer.

Hi Dave, From a logical standpoint there is no reason why P3D V4.5 should not work the same way as the previous version. EFB v1 connects via SimConnect and there haven't been any recent changes in that protocol.

Hi Volker, Please check your firewall settings. See this thread.: https://forum.aivlasoft.com/topic/3586-cant-start-server/

Hi Jay, We do not display the Airline Codes in the Taxi Selection page but on the Information Page, Tab "Parking".

Hi Erdal, Not sure what you are referring to. The procedures are not dependent on the scenery but on the database used. That's why we require the Support Files.Taxiway depiction OTOH is DIRECTLY dependent on the scenery used. There are AFAIK two sceneries for LSGG, one Payware (actually for XP10) by PilotPlus and the Gateway scenery. Both have taxiways, however the Gateway Scenery is more accurate and complete. the Payware is very basic.

Hi ??? (please observe the forum rules: https://forum.aivlasoft.com/topic/2522-forum-rules-read-before-post/ ) Those are two separate issues. I do have all relevant procedures in LSGG displayed as you can see in dthe screenshot attachend The issue about the "Sync Pos" we might need to investigate. It would be very helpful if you could supply more information. Please make a set of Support Files and attach them to your next post.

George, We still do not know your exact configuration and installation. Please submit the Support Files, so we can at least try to figure this out.

No update on Client?? Please submit Support Files.

Sorry George, You did not even answer ONE of my above questions. I am unable to help you this way. Please uninstall EFB v2 (using the standard Uninstallers) and make a complete re-install using the default installation paths. Then proceed to the setup as per Manual and when finished provide all necessary information as per Forum Rules, section 3. https://forum.aivlasoft.com/topic/2522-forum-rules-read-before-post/
