How can I add ILS for LZIB runways ? I made LZIB.ils.xml file :

Code: Select all

<?xml version='1.0' encoding='ISO-8859-1'?>
<PropertyList>
  <runway>
    <ils>
      <lon>17.196361</lon>
      <lat>48.158694</lat>
      <rwy>22</rwy>
      <hdg-deg>223.93</hdg-deg>
      <elev-m>131.1</elev-m>
      <nav-id>OKR</nav-id>
    </ils>
  </runway>
  <runway>
    <ils>
      <lon>17.200083</lon>
      <lat>48.178222</lat>
      <rwy>31</rwy>
      <hdg-deg>313.93</hdg-deg>
      <elev-m>132.2</elev-m>
      <nav-id>OB</nav-id>
    </ils>
  </runway>
</PropertyList>


But without success. What is missing ?
Thank You.

Where can I find all data for ILS ?
I know file ICAO.ILS.xml. In this file are references on navaids. I found that navaids in the file nav.dat. Are there other files related to the ILS ?

Hmmm, doesn't work. I have additional scenery directory and in it :
Airports/L/Z/I/LZIB.ils.xml
Navaids/Navdata/nav/l.nav.dat

File l.nav.dat :

Code: Select all

I didn t know FG can parse this

Code: Select all

Custom_scenery/Navaids/Navdata/nav/l.nav.dat


AFAIK, it needs to be your FGDATA/Navaids/nav.dat file (not l.nav.dat, or any other variation)

ILS for LZIB definitively works !
I added

Code: Select all

4  48.17822222  017.20008333    434 11070  25     314.020 OB   LZIB 31  ILS-cat-III
4  48.15869444  017.19636111    440 10830  25     223.838 OKR  LZIB 22  ILS-cat-I

to the original file nav.dat.gz

that looks about right.
Good to know it worked.

I'm marking this as SOLVED.

quick question
Is that ILS frequency real?

If so, I'd like to put a ticket for the Xplane group so the Navaid gets eventually updated

Should be OK, sources are here :
Airport charts : http://www.ivao.sk/files/1491432182-LZIB-Bratislava.pdf
fgmembers navaids https://github.com/FGMEMBERS-SCENERY/Navaids

EDIT :
I found updated thread about navaids on flightgear forum :
https://forum.flightgear.org/viewtopic.php?f=18&t=30512
There are links to updated data files, nav.dat.gz contains ILS data for LZIB same as from http://www.ivao.sk
