![]() Navigraph offers this AIRAC data in two formats: Chart and FMS. As of this writing (late November 2015), the current AIRAC cycle is 1512. So, for example, the fourth cycle of 2015 would be designated as 1504. There are thirteen AIRAC cycles each calendar year and they are referred to by the last two digits of the year and the cycle number. Temporary Flight Restrictions ( TFR) are also routinely checked and adhered to by real pilots, but they do not typically exist in FSX/Prepar3D and are usually ignored. Real pilots always consult the relevant NOTAMs before each flight, and sim pilots should use their own discretion. NOTE: The AIPs cannot realistically offer real time updates and this is where Notice to Airmen ( NOTAM) apply. These updates are known as Aeronautical Information Regulation And Control ( AIRAC) cycles. Every 28 to 56 days, they are updated and released again. “A publication issued by or with the authority of a State and containing aeronautical information of a lasting character essential to air navigation.”\ĪIPs usually include current aviation regulations, procedures, and charts containing airport, runway, airspace, Instrument Approach Procedures ( IAP), Standard Terminal Arrival Routes ( STAR), and Standard Instrument Departures ( SID) information. These entities create Aeronautical Information Publications ( AIP). AIP are defined by the International Civil Aviation Organization ( ICAO) as: The source of aeronautical navigation data in each country is typically that country’s government. This article is based on Navigraph FMS Data Manager version 1. Navigraph is a supplier of navigational charts/FMS data to the global flight sim community. Navigraph Manager is an application, created by Navigraph KB based in Sweden, that allows you to easily manage your flight simulation FMS data in multiple formats with one simple user interface. ![]()
