RayProudfoot Posted December 10, 2020 Share Posted December 10, 2020 Hi chaps, I have Zagreb - LDZA - by rfSceneryBuilding purchased on SimMarkets. I'm a little confused by the runway designations. SkyVector, PFPX, and Wiki all shows it's 05/23 but P3D and EFB show it as 04/22. You guys are normally up to date with this so could you confirm the runway designators please? Thanks!

RayProudfoot Posted December 10, 2020 Author Share Posted December 10, 2020 Just an update to this. I had a bare-bones scenery install when I said P3D was showing 04/22. The scenery itself is 05/23 confirmed by the actual runway markings and confirmed as 05/23 when I run P3D with all scenery enabled. So it's just EFB showing it as 04/22. Odd because when this sort of mismatch happens EFB usually doesn't show the SID/STAR data but it still does. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lonewulf47 Posted December 10, 2020 Share Posted December 10, 2020 The official RWY numbering at LDZA is 04/22 (see screenshot from LIDO manual): Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RayProudfoot Posted December 10, 2020 Author Share Posted December 10, 2020 Hi Oskar, Do you have a link to that site so I have a suitable reference? So maybe it’s a very recent change as all the other software has 05/23. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can't confirm the change date, bu the Croatian AIP shows the ground chart valid as per 04NOV, but the changelog does not incorporate any runway figure changes. So the change must have happened before 2012 cycle. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RayProudfoot Posted December 10, 2020 Author Share Posted December 10, 2020 Hi Oskar, Fair enough but on checking PFPX (fed from my Navigraph sub) it shows 04/22 so that's good enough for me. Still confused why EFB didn't flag a conflict with the AFCAD it's using for LDZA which clearly shows 05/23. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No, EFB2 simply replaces the RWY assignment, as long as it is confirmed by the current AIRAC cycle. It does this unnoticed for a few hundred default RWY also. Otherwise the log would be overloaded by unnecessary error flags. If a (different) RWY number is confirmed by the current AIRAC cycle, there is no reason to flag this as an error. For Add-On sceneries it is of course the developers duty to change the ground markings. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RayProudfoot Posted December 10, 2020 Author Share Posted December 10, 2020 Thanks for that Oskar. Probably best the user doesn’t get swamped with warnings. I’ll write to the developer and ask for new runway markings. I’ll also use PFPX as my reference as it’s updated by each AIRAC cycle. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RayProudfoot Posted December 11, 2020 Author Share Posted December 11, 2020 The developers had already provided an update. It’s available on SimMarket with the base product. Great service! 👍 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
