Hi,

when compiling an adventure from EGKK to EHAM PFE gives me 121.7 as clearance frequency.
FSX frequency is 121.95.

I've already tried to update the PFE database but that didn't change anything. There are no addons active for EGKK. Is there a way to correct this error or am I doing something wrong?

Have you ran makerwys and then update db.
Is PFE of latest version.

PFE Version is 2.14.0.
Yes I ran makerunways and updated the db successfully. Attached you'll see the excerpt of the runways.txt for EGKK. The question is, where does PFE get it's clearance frequency from because here it is correct.

PFE uses the F5.CSV file created by Makerwys

Ah, ok.

So, these are the lines from the F5.csv:
  • EGKK,0,0,"Gatwick"
  • EGKK,1,136.52,"EGKK"
  • EGKK,5,121.80,"GATWICK"
  • EGKK,6,124.22,"GATWICK"
  • EGKK,6,134.22,"GATWICK"
  • EGKK,8,118.95,"GATWICK DIRECTOR"
  • EGKK,8,126.82,"GATWICK DIRECTOR"
  • EGKK,8,129.02,"GATWICK DIRECTOR"
  • EGKK,14,121.95,"GATWICK"
The last line seems to be the frequency that I am talking about?

If you'd like to send me a debug log file for a flight from EGKK I'll take a look to see what's happening
