How to correct airport location in Plan-G

Juneau International Airport Seaplane Base is in the wrong location.  I'm assuming that Plan-G gets the info from Fsx,  however the location is correct in Fsx. How can I change it in Plan-G?

Is this from an addon? Did you rebuild Plan-G's database after installing it?

Bruce,

You may want to check a conflicting entry caused by add-on sceneries (you might even have forgotten). Try this link and you'll find a pretty nice tool from the author of the Airport Design editor: http://www.blog.scruffyduck.org.uk/index.php?/archives/93-Simple-Airport-Scanner-Updated.html. But, please pay attention before doing any action! You may read first this here http://www.blog.scruffyduck.org.uk/index.php?/archives/92-Airport-Scanning-is-a-Dangerous-Thing.html or this https://scruffyduck.clarify-it.com/d/jrjg27.

Yes it's an addon.  Orbx SAK. I've rebuilt data base.

Tried the SAS tool. Did not find a duplicate for PAJ1

Found a work around. Create a new flight plan .plg. Export to create flight plan.pln. Edit the .pln to the Fsx lat & long.
A little cumbersome but it works for me.
Tks guys

Was the orbs region active? Inactive regions get taken out of the scenery.cfg by the Orbx Central tool, which is why they need to be added manually through the Additional Scenery list.

Hi Bruce,

Did you find any indication that Juneau is taken from ORBX files? SAS usually gives back the path of its findings. If so, those guys probably had shifted the airport reference point to the wrong place and you might be able to correct this with the little help of the Airport Design Editor (don't miss to make backups!). If you need assistance you might PM me.
