Re: [Flightgear-devel] Navaids FIX data with duplicates entries

2008-02-07 Thread Cleber Santz
   Yes, SBGL is in APT.DAT but the FIX around is not in FIX.DAT ( Like FICO, 
PERES )

   And there duplicates entries in X-Plane data too, i have send mail for Robin 
check it, but FIX of around SBGL airport is in X-Plane but not in Flightgear.

Tks,
Cleber

Well I checked LEPAS and HARDLY quickly in another source, and there are
several of them too. Although the real world authorities strive for
uniqueness, they cannot and do not guarantee so. Short of errors or
oversights on the part of Robin Peel, his (thus X-Plane's and in turn
our) navaids data does reflect this accurately.

Also SBGL Galeão Antonio Carlos Jombim is to be found in apt.dat.gz
and looks alright to me.

 
 Hi,
 
 AFAIK the fgfs navaids files have been converted from X-plane data files,
 but alas, years ago and therefore they are outdated.

The last update was somehow shortly before the relase of 1.0.0, and
taking into account the mentioned possible errors/delays it should be 
up-to-date within reasonable limits, although not following the very
latest AIRAC cycle.

1) That is a correct observation, there are duplicate fixes.  That
 includes named waypoints, VORs, et cetera.

2) This is *not* a bug in the database.  Complaining to Robin about 
 it would be a step in the wrong direction.

3) Real-world pilots and real-world navigation instruments resolve
 the ambiguity by choosing the _nearest_ one of the possibilities.

4) This *is* a bug in the stock version of the FGFS code, in the
 sense that it is not smart about duplicate fixes.

5) This bug was fixed eons ago in the Sport Model.  See item 31 on
 the list at
 http://www.av8n.com/fly/fgfs/README.sport.model

[Flightgear-devel] Navaids FIX data with duplicates entries

2008-02-07 Thread Cleber Santz
Hi,
 
   I have trace same routes using waypoints and find many duplicates entries in 
FIX Data ( like LEPAS, HARDY ) with different coordinates, thats is correct ?

   One more thing, some FIX that find in X-Plane navaid data not appers in 
FlightGear ( FIX for SBGL airport for example ), is not the same database ?

Tks,
Cleber Santz.
