    UTDK - Kulob (Kulyab) Intl. Airport - Image 2

    Description

    * It is known that there are obvious MISALIGNMENT between the ILS localizer track and the runway in case you are using navdata from 3rd vendors like Navigraph or payware aircraft like Fenix A32X. However the runway for this airport is placed in alignment with satellite imagery, which is most accurate so I decided not to make the runway to align with the ILS for the case stated above. DO NOT USE AUTOLAND and fly manually on short final*

    When I was making the Afghanistan Airstrip Pack, I found this airport on Google Map at the border between Tajikistan and Afghanistan, and it is missing in the game. I search on this website, no one made this, so it's my turn again.

    The runway of this airport is obviously inclined, which the elevation difference between runway thresholds is more than 40M. Takeoff and landing could only be conducted at the south of the airport, although I don't think it is technically challenging at the opposite side. The only precaution is that don't fly at the east of the airport if you are not flying to/from Afghanistan, as it is very close to the border.

    The size of the terminal is very small comparing with the size of the apron. All the parking spaces are taxi-in taxi-out, which means no pushback is needed although there will be one in the sim. Although the runway is longer than 3KM, you are recommended to land not faster than 140KIAS if you can, otherwise you maybe unable to stop the plane before the last exit (TWY C), then you need to keep taxi forward to the end of the runway and then turn back to enter TWY C.

    Now the navdata and the scenery have been separated. Just delete the file "navdata-utdk.bgl" if you have subscribed 3rd party global navdata from vendors like Navigraph to prevent conflicts. Also check here if you experience the very common "double runway" issue:

    This no longer contains CGL. The file size is a lot smaller. Is this correct?

    Affirmative. In fact the world data (aerial imagery, terrain, autogen buildings, worldwide navdata...) for both FS2020 and FS2024 are the same now

    Strange...
    My previous images have not attached...
    I can try to send it in private message.

    Sorry for long respond.
    Here is screens from Fenix navdata database and part of AIP.
    May it can help to resolve the problem?

    I have tried to change data in Fenix by your data, and the result was that offset changed to the other side...

    Tests with PMDG 777 showed, that problem is solved for this aircraft.
    There is only with Fenix A320...

    As far as I know, Fenix A320 loads navdata from Navigraph directly, bypassing the navdata from the sim, if you are subscribing Navigraph and logged in with the EFB on the aircraft.

    I've tried with priorities:
    A320 neo(v2) begins work properly with priorities:
    Package name="navigraph-navdata-base" priority="1"
    Package name="navigraph-navdata" priority="2"
    Package name="kychungdotcom-airport-utdk-kulob" priority="3"

    But Fenix still have the offset. (((

    May you send here coordinates and other properties of ILS and runway in scenery?
    I will compare it with data in Fenix.

    Here is the configuration of the ILS for my UTDK. :
    lat: 38.00652413014347
    lon: 69.81214323335850
    alt: 706.08405600000003
    magvar: 357.070007
    heading: 13.00000000000000

    Additionally tested with A320neo(v2) which is one of default aircrafts. The same...

    Would you like to retry by moving the priority of this addon over "navigraph-navdata-base"?

    Hi.
    I have the same problem: ILS 01 have offset about 80m to the right from visible runway.
    I'm using fenix, pmdg 777, 737 and current Navigraph subscribtion

    It seems that the problem is that the aircraft is reluctant to follow the localizer, rather than the localizer is tuned inaccurately. However I'm sorry that I have no clue on this problem at the moment as I have none of the aircraft you have.

    May I know if you have Navigraph subscribed, and the type of aircraft you fly to this airport?

    almost 2 years ago

    Navigraph have, but in Content.xml i am prescribed a priority, secondary RW not see, but the ILS starts on a default runway. Aircrafts - Fenix a320, pmdg all, cessna 172

    IRL the runway of this airport is single-ended under IFR, i.e. takeoff from Rwy 19 only and landing on Rwy 01 only, so ILS is also only installed for Rwy 01 only. It is safe to operate in reverse under VFR, but the airport is not configured for this. I have compiled a new version with some minor changes for coding and I hope it can solve the problem of ILS misalignment.

    Great job! Thank you so much for one more lesser popular destination.

    Excellent scenario, I have a request to make an update, in the latest version of MSFS I observe 2 runways.

    I guess you are subscribing Navigraph, where the "double runway" problem is very common for those airport not built-in with the sim. You may refer to the Navigraph official forum for possible workarounds. I did made an updated version for this airport, but I got stuck at somewhere which prevented me from releasing it.
