Description
Ingolstadt Manching Airfield, or Fliegerhorst Ingolstadt/Manching in German (IATA: IGS, ICAO: ETSI), is a military airbase with civil usage located in Manching near Ingolstadt, Germany.
The airfield is home to the Bundeswehr Technical and Airworthiness Center for Aircraft (Wehrtechnische Diesnststelle 61). The first flights of the Panavia Tornado and Eurofighter prototypes took place here. The F-104G Starfighter and the F-4 Phantom II fighter aircraft were flown here testing weapons systems in the 1960s, 70s and 80s. During the Space Shuttle missions it was considered as a landing site for Transoceanic Abort Landings.
Airbus Defence and Space also has its headquarter here. Manching is now a key center for Airbus' military air systems activity in Germany including the support of Luftwaffe aircraft and the German final assembly line of the Eurofighter Typhoon.

Ja, klar, man hätte ja auch vorher lesen können, dass der Support für die 2020-Version eingestellt ist. Aber jetzt ist ETSI anscheinend unrettbar für mich verloren. Habe es gerade aus meinem Bestand gelöscht. Sehr schade!
Warum ist denn die 2020-Version komplett verschwunden? Hätte man die nicht parallel stehen lassen können?

Könnten wir bitte auch da die 20er Version beibehalten? Muss ja nicht weiterentwickelt werden.
Vielen Dank!

One issue I have is that it completely kills the navigraph navdata for ETSI in FS2024- only the runways are remaining but all procedures are gone incl. the ILS - visible in the EFB or any aircraft that uses the sim navdata as source (Beluga, etc.).
EDIT: After tweaking around a bit more and moving both navigraph entries with the package reorder tool to the bottom of the list, now the procedures are back - no idea yet if this will have other unwanted effects tho... The ILS itself is still gone.

Thank you for your work!
By the way, have I to install the three folders (I mean, the FS2020 folder also for MSFS 2024?).
