No Approaches Showing Up

Hello all,

using build 47 on X-Plane beta 8 I can successfully build a database, but no approaches load and "show approaches" does not appear when right clicking on any airport on the main map...

log txt attached, any ideas on why this might be and how to fix ?

thanks

Well, I'm replying to my own post...

Just tried a database build again, beta 9 of x plane, the database will build, watching the messages as the build goes forward it says at some point "0 approaches" and then moves on to airways or something.  sure enough, no approaches show up, and looking at approaches is not one of the options at all when right clicking on any airport.  I seem to be the only person in the world reporting this particular problem - strange !

Hello Terry,

I just did a database run with x-plane 10.10b9, like yours, when it got to "instrument approaches" it indicted 0 to retrieve and went on to its next
set of requirements.  I do not know how that data is presented from x-plane or where the fault may be, if there is one.  On right click on an airport
I do not even see the "instrument approaches" item to select....course if we loaded 0.......

As an aside, could you be so kind as to right click on any airport and then select Show Airport Diagram. Take a look at the runway headings, I say
they are reversed. I have posted about this but no response so far.

yes, I can confirm the runways show up reversed.  I looked up KMAE (my home airport) in both Plan G and  on AirNav.com and Plan G is the opposite of Airnav...

perversely glad to hear that someone else sees the no approaches problem !

a bug somewhere, could be x plane or could be Plan g, a curious one...

Same here (runways number reversed) with X-Plane 9.70 and Plan-Gv3 beta 46

Sorry for the lack of response - I've been away for a few days.

As far as I'm aware, there are no approaches in the X-Plane data set, so none will show up.


I'll look into the runway orientation issue.

Thanks for looking into all this Tim, its appreciated.  The runway orientation was ok in V2.
