VenturaGuy101 Posted February 15, 2018 Report Share Posted February 15, 2018 A quick question regarding editing a Tracon Sector. * When editing an item like the runway there is an elevation tag. The manual does not state if the elevation is metric (meters) or imperial (feet)? I don't see any place to indicate units. * Is there any contact information for Simulated Designs? I don't see them on this forum and I cannot find any contact information so far on the internet. I found some significant errors in one of their Tracon Products and I would like to let them know. A PM with this information is fine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
crbascott Posted February 15, 2018 Report Share Posted February 15, 2018 Elevation is feet. I have no info on Simulated Design - never bought those sectors. I'd kinda be surprised is they'd be up to changing anything after all these years. You may be better off making the fixes yourself using the Airspace Editor.

VenturaGuy101 Posted February 15, 2018 Author Report Share Posted February 15, 2018 I am in progress of fixing the Tracon myself. The issue is the Mag-True was set negative when it should have been positive. I discovered when the local features and departure paths were not aligned with the runways. When I tried to add a couple of approach waypoints, they were intersecting the runways at 50 degrees. I discovered the Mag-True and corrected that value and it actually created a complete mess with the runways, departures, and some waypoints. I started to edit each runway and entered data available from AirNav and things started to come together so I know that I am on the right track. The sad part is I will not be able to share the sector since it is published by a vendor and the changes are so numerous, not many people will attempt to fix it them selves even if I have a complete set of notes.
