Hi all Another question rised up here during my faa-data to apt.dat conversion. Does the current (or the updated) genapts take new approach lightning codes into account ? Can the scenery tools read the new 8.50 runway line already or is this still based on 8.10 specs ?
Maybe I missed this point in a discussion here, sorry for that. But to illustrate my question, the "problem" is that some lightning codes are not covered in 8.10 specs. What I get from FAA: # MALSR # MALSF # MALS # SSALR # SALS # LDIN # RAIL # MIL OVRN # NSTD # ALSF-1 # ALSF-2 # ODALS Now With 8.50 runway line specs I can cover most of this "new" codes, but not with 8.10, which knows "only" # SSALS (Simplified short approach light system) # SALSF (Short approach light system with sequenced flashing lights). # ALSF-I (Approach light system with sequenced flashing lights). # ALSF-II (Approach light system with sequenced flashing lights and red side bar lights the last 1000'). # ODALS (Omni-directional approach light system). # Calvert (a British design) category 1. # Calvert (a British design) categories 2 and 3. I can not find any information about FLightGear implementation. This here http://wiki.flightgear.org/Approach_lighting_system is just a copy paste from wikipedia and does not say if this codes/models are part of the fg runway lightning system or not ? Thanks for any suggestion and comment about this. Cheers, Yves ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Learn Windows Azure Live!
