AIRAC Not Updating in the Aircraft

Featured Replies

Hi,

I have been flying the PMDG Products for quite a decent amount of time for now and I'm facing this new issue for the past 2 months... I Update the AIRAC and it successfully does get copied in the PMDG folder... However, when I load in a flight (777/737) in the page before the POS INIT in the FMC it says "AIRAC NOT UP TO DATE".. But, In the page before the POS INIT, it displays the active AIRAC and a positive validity range... Can someone help me with this?

Thanks, 

Mohammed

Are you sure you're not starting the sim with a scenario that has a date outside the valid date range?

Hi,

Many times I just go with what is set as default by the sim... If I'm flying on VATSIM tho I change the date to the present date... Should that be a problem ?

Navigraph have changed their mapping to PMDG....in Navigraph, delete your existing path to PMDG and then rescan...it will locate PMDG and install to the new path. Regards.

Yes..just delete the PMDG path in the Navigraph Data Manager and then do a rescan....it will relocate to the correct path...

That was driving me nuts, I wondered why I got that.

Hi,

It's a pity that I didn't change the date in the sim... It was as simple as W6kd... The year was set to 2006 whenever I started FSX and it had always caused the problem... I changed it to 2019 and it worked perfectly... Anyways thanks to Peter as well...

Regards

That did the trick for me.

Thank you!
