Not sure if I asked this here before, but is anyone else missing waypoints in fs? For example, im missing many waypoints around atlanta, like in the flcon1 arrival.
Im missing dirty, byrds, flcon, and a few others. I downloaded the rnav support by dan downs, and when I try to find them in my fsnavigator they still dont show up.
Any ideas?

For added navaids and stuff to show up in FSNAV, you have to run the FSNavDBC located in the Start menu under FSNAV - once you run that, any new points that you have added through add ons, etc...will then show up in FSNav

Where do I get FS 2004 default navaid to add on from? I couldn't find any website to get update Navadis to the FS 2004 folders. I have tried to search from google a few months ago. How do I get these data update?
Thanks,
Stuart

Unfortunately Stuart, FS9's navaids are very out of date with no way that I know of to update them. The only thing that you could do is to open the .pln file and add the coordinates for the waypoint. For example, if you wanted to add CANUK go to http://airnav.com and click on Fixes. On the next screen input CANUK and click on Get Fix Information. The next screen gives you coordinates of Location: 33-13-00.170N 083-48-30.530W. Open the .pln file in notepad and add waypoint.X=, , , CANUK, I, N33* 13.00', W83* 48.51', +000000.00, CANUK3. Where X= whatever waypoint number is appropriate for this waypoint. You can replace +000000.00 with whatever altitude that you plan to be flying when you reach that waypoint. CANUK3 is the STAR that you are flying.
Or you could purchase FSNAV or FSBuild and download the navigation updates. I think that they charge for the updates now though.
A little long I know, but I hope that this helps!

FSBuild does not charge for their updates last I checked.

I just noticed that we have navigation aids information available in the pilot center. It will give you the information like airnav along with a purty picture too! Sorry Luke for not seeing that before.

There is a way to update FS9 NAV points .... I remember reading about it here in the forum several months ago.
