My patch is not 100% perfect. You can see blue surface of the Dead Sea :(

Remote MCDU is very good feature. I use it on every my flight. And some months ago, with this thing I prepared nasty surprise for my son, I hijacked his 737 :). His revenge was sweet - he activated double engine fail on my Bus :) I landed in 1 piece only with some strange miracle.

Thx so much indeed. I've just set it up and runs very nicely. What an impressive effort to say the least, and a very penniless effort btw.
Trying to update the Airac procedures.. I downloaded the the Level D database from Navigraph and created the FMSDATA within the scenery folder but not quite sure how to activate it
within the sim folder structure. The read me file a bit optimistic regarding my FG prowess.

Thx in advance

Having difficulties with the navdata and the Mcdu. Are the SID/STARS/TRANS and via accesible via de the MCDU? I've downloaded the Level D data and put it nicely under the scenery / L / E subletters
accordingly. A tad odd the process.

SID, STAR and approaches are visible and selectable in the MCDU. Airways not. Default Navigraph procedure files have name scheme ICAO.xml. You need rename file to ICAO.procedures.xml and place this file into YourScenery\Airports\I\C\A\ folder if I remember correctly.

Swift, I think means if you can change the radio from within swift.

I don't see why not; but I haven't specifically tried it. If it in fact doesn't work, then it might be possible to make it work!

last time I've tried the swift client it worked... (active freq only, we can't do stby cause you'd need multiple stby files, one for each rmp)
