ontheair Posted September 5, 2021 Share Posted September 5, 2021 Hi, Back again in the Sim World. Just hope you're doing fine ! Congratulations for the "new" EFB v2 I've just discovered Which AIRAC cycle is provided with EFB v2 I'm planning to buy ? I did not find that kind of info in the installation manual The AIRAC Cycle supplied with the basic installation is not the most recent one, however it is included to provide full functionality of EFB J.Louis EFB v1 customer since a long time P3D v1, v2, v3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aivlasoft Posted September 5, 2021 Share Posted September 5, 2021 Hi J. Louis welcome back to flight simulation. The AIRAC cycle you have asked for is 1802. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ontheair Posted September 5, 2021 Author Share Posted September 5, 2021 Thanks very much. Airac cycle 1802. I should know about that but does 18 mean 2018 ? and 02 February ? If yes, it's outdated Except subscribing to Navigraph or similar provider, is there a way to get a more recent cycle ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lonewulf47 Posted September 5, 2021 Share Posted September 5, 2021 Hi Jean-Louis, Yes. of course the provided AIRAC Cycle is outdated. Its only purpose is to serve as an exampe for proper use of EFB2. For legal reasons we are not allowed to provide an actual AIRAC Cycle with our Basic Installation. AIRAC Cycles are published in a 28 day rhytm, which gives an average of 13 Cycles/Year. always starting on a Thursday at 00:00. Next AIRAC Cycle 2109 is starting on Thursday, September 9th. For more information please see here: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aeronautical_Information_Publication Complete AIRAC Cycles for EFB2 are available by either Navigraph(Jeppesen) or NavDataPro(Lufthansa LIDO). Both are commercial databases used in real life aviation. There is no alternative way to legally get recent cycles other than subscribing to NavDataPro or Navigraph.

Meinrad Posted September 21, 2021 Share Posted September 21, 2021 hello with further searching in the forum i found the solution, dated from 2018 but still the key.... ; Thanks anyway for your attention Mani Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lonewulf47 Posted September 22, 2021 Share Posted September 22, 2021 Just as a piece of additional information: The Navigraph installer should find the proper installation path for EFB2's AIRAC data. It should be: C:\Users\<username>\Documents\AivlaSoft\EFB2\Server\ for a default installation. Once they are installed, just use the "Update Navdata" tab on the EFB-DatabaseBuilder.

flyaway7400 Posted July 11, 2022 Share Posted July 11, 2022 Greetings, I'm trying since Airac 2206, to install/update the database, with no luck. It stays on 2205. Any tips to get it to install? Regards, Henk. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lonewulf47 Posted July 11, 2022 Share Posted July 11, 2022 Henk, Can you describe exactly (step by step), how you proceed to update the EFB database? And please post a screenshot of your present DatabaseBuilder Page Tab 1 (Create/select EFB Database). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It tried to install the update but it tried to install it in the wrong folder (EFB instead of EFB2). Fixed that and then I saw that today is the release for the new airac 2207 and installed that with no problem and updated the database. All honkey dory now.😀 Regards, Henk.
