Hi,

Hi, EGCN isn't on the map by default as far as I can remember, but there is an outline file you can download to show it - I'll look it out.

However, I'm not sure that I've ever seen any traffic flying in/out that gives position information.

Edit: .out file attached.  Put this in your RadarBox Outlines (not Out) directory and restart RadarBox.

If you want a label too, then copy this to your File>Preferences>RadarBox>Custom Legend List and make sure that you have Map>Custom Legends set to 'On'

EGCN,53.4737,-0.994564

pure3000,

Are you using thing latest version 3? As that does have an updated map database.

So it is!  I didn't realise that it had been updated ....... I don't tend to have Airports set to on unless I'm down in the London area!

It doesn't seem to have a label though.

Hi the airport is actually there, it isn't on the database of airports and doesn't have the EGCN set up to show, you could do it through the custom legend (if you know the Long and Lat)
I've just added the details to the db,now when i locate EGCN it goes to the airport but doesn't show identifier or name in the station label section.
