KSGU Saint George Utah. The ILS/DME ribbon is in the correct location but the Airport, on Plan-G is at the VOR location When you create a flight plan the KSGU start point will be the VOR positon, not the airport, but if you move your plane to KSGU it will be at the point of the ILS/DME ribbon - or whatever you call it. The real airport is on a bearing of 122 @ 5.2nm fro the VOR.

Default so far as I know. I do not have any 3rd party scenery loaded for that area.
Here's the airports coordinates as shown from the "Great Circle Mapper"
Type: Airport (Part 139 Class I)
Use: Public/Civil
Latitude: 37°02'11"N (37.036389)
Longitude: 113°30'37"W (-113.510305)
Datum: WGS 1984
Elevation: 2883 ft (879 m)

Here's the coordinates of the ILS.DME.
37.0249
-113.51666

Here are the coordinates of KSGU as displayed on Plan-G.
37.08969
-113.59314

The ILS data is correct for the "new" KSGU. The airport symbol you have is for the "old" KSGU (stock fsx, pre 2010 data) which did not have a precision approach. You may have a navigation update possibly from Herve Sors but it doesn't include the airport itself. Maybe try addon sceneries like these, otherwise a google search of "FSX scenery KSGU" will give you a host of options. Install the new scenery then run the Plan-G database builder.. That should put it where it belongs as of today.
