Hi Dave

Just a couple of issues that I hope you may be able to help me with.

1) Everytime I run Rebuild PFE Database, I am losing all my SID/STAR data, despite answering Yes when prompted whether I wish to save this data. Do you have any ideas as to why and is there any kind of work around? (I found one post from last year wherethis was happening to a user half the time, but there was no satisfactory resolution to his problem).

2) When trying to set up some STARs for Graz, PFE cannot find LOWG. When I checked the runways.csv file, there is no entry in there for LOWG either. I had a stab at filling in the appropriate information into runways.csv by hand (in alphabetic order of ICAO code), but it seemed to throw all the other data out of synch (ie when I entered an ICAO code into the SID/STARs page, it pulled up completely incorrect runway data)...so I assume it must keep track of the number of records somehow. I know MakeRunways is not part of PFE, but I just wondered if you or anyone else could shed some light on this problem?

I love the recent developments. Please keep up the great work.

All the best

Owen

Are you sure you're running version 2.14?

I don't know if my memory is getting worse as I get older...
...I just can't remember how it used to be!

Hi,

I have the same problem, have you found a solution to keep SID and STAR after rebuild?

I'm running the latest version of PFE!

It isn't a problem, its just the way pf works and no, there's nothing we can do. Besides, you shouldn't be adding sids and stars to your flight plan
