Thomas,
I am not sure to understand all what you say and think, because my english is very poor.
You cannot ADD blue waypoint (terminal waypoints) in the Freenav AIRAC or in any BGL file. You can add them only on the "En-route" (magenta color) format, because in the FSX structure, terminal waypoints are included in the airport AFACD file.
If you want that your waypoints are "terminals" (blue color), you must edit the airport AFCAD with Aeroport Design Editor, and add your waypoint inside and compile your edited AFCAD in BGL format, and distribute the AFCAD with you airports files.
This is the reason why terminals waypoints have in their names the Airport ICAO code, because they are include in the airport AFCAD file.
We can add in the Freenav AIRAC, only "En-Route" waypoints (magenta colors), VOR, VOR-DME, DME and NDB.
A user waypoint (type "U") is not in the AIRAC file. It is a waypoint define only by Latitude/longitude. This type of waypoint is declared only in the Airport .CSV file and it has no symbol on the ND map of the aircraft.
You can add them to PLAN-G, by a right click and the function "add user waypoint", with a specific symbol.
To summurize :
You can add "En-route" waypoint to the FSX database by in innclude them in the Freenav AIRAC file (when you create airport files, you use a temporary file called "EDDN.xml" file for exemple, that you compile to a temporary EDDN.BGL to test your airport.
When Airport is completed, you send me all your files, and I add to the Freenav AIRAC, all waypoint included in your "EDDN.xml" file and I compile the new AIRAC.
When you install the new AIRAC, you can delete your temporary "EDDN.BGL" file.
In the Excel data sheet, navaids requires the following declaration :
Waypoint "En-Route" VOR and NDB:
- Type : W for waypoint, V for VOR, N for NDB
- ICAO region code (2 chars)
- let empty ICAO Airport cell)
- ICAO Name (3 to 5 Chars for waypoints, 2 or 3 chars for NDB, 3 chars for VOR)
Waypoint "terminal" :
- Type : W
- ICAO region code (2 chars)
- ICAO Airport name (4 Chars)
- ICAO Name (3 to 5 Chars)
NOTE : Some NDB, requires the ICAO airport code (this is often the case whhen it is a NDB that is an OM - Outer Mark, in final approach)
User Waypoints :
- Type : U
- let empty ICAO region code
- let empty ICAO airport code
- Name of your choice until 5 chers max
- Latitude in decimal degrees
- Longitude in decimal degrees
Runways threshold :
- type : R
- ICAO region code (2 chars)
- ICAO airport code (4 chars)
- Runway ident (always 5 chars ,composed by "RW" + runway number ; leading 0 are mandatory, exemple : RW07R
That's help you ?
