Database
« on: August 01, 2010, 02:50:14 PM »
Hi Guys

I've been a bit out of the loop recently as my wife is unwell. In trying to catch up I have noted that a lot of work, via volunteers, is ongoing on correcting the database.

I have seen updates for wrong aircraft informtion being posted and I assume the database is then updated. My question is does this update all our databases automatically or should i be uploading a new version?

Sorry if it's a daft question I'll try and catch up ASAP.

No (it doesn't), and no (you can't).

Although hopefully it won't be long before we're able to download the new database.

Here's the link (although it's not yet working): www.airnavsystems.com/download/anrb/databaseupdates/NavData.db3

Hi John,

It wont update wrong information automatically, Airnav will need to provide an updated Navdata file at some stage.  

I hope your wife is feeling better now and is on the mend
