When your AIRAC cycle is outdated, flying is not as fun as it should be on P3D or FSX. Usually, addons like PMDG will come up with a message like 'nav databa.

How

The right locations for AIRAC data

I switched to Ubuntu LTS 18.04 for my X-Plane 11 installation this weekend, because the B748 EFB isn't working on my Windows 10 installation anymore. I have to look into that. This is just a quick writeup on how to update the navigation data for X-Plane 11 and SSG's B748 FMC.

  • X-Plane is looking at /Custom Data
  • The B748 FMC is lookin at /Custom Data/UFMC; you might need to create the UFMC folder

The right locations for AIRAC data

I switched to Ubuntu LTS 18.04 for my X-Plane 11 installation this weekend, because the B748 EFB isn't working on my Windows 10 installation anymore. I have to look into that. This is just a quick writeup on how to update the navigation data for X-Plane 11 and SSG's B748 FMC.

  • X-Plane is looking at /Custom Data
  • The B748 FMC is lookin at /Custom Data/UFMC; you might need to create the UFMC folder
  • When I reinstalled the Navigraph FMS data I let it install into the default location it selected (I did this before I reinstalled Aivlasoft) and when I reinstalled the EFB I choose not to install install the free AIRAC cycle as I didn't see the point. Now I don't know exactly which folder I'm looking for when it's asking for my Navigraph FMS data.
  • The problem may be completely on my end by unintentionally breaking something in my installation. After updating the AIRAC using the FMS Data manager provided by Navigraph, I didn't ever touch the files manually. I am also not using other FMS Data or from other providers. Checking the MCDUDataA/C Status, the correct current AIRAC1701 is.

  • If it had been a regular installation you would simply require to download and get the navdata foIder from the go achive and replace the present navdata folder. Chemical:Plan Files (a86)SteamsteamappscommonX-Plane 11Custom DataGNS430 navdata.

Because I have a Navigraph subscription, I can use the Navigraph FMS Data Manager to update the AIRAC data in these folders. I have created 2 Addon Mappings for these 2 applications, with the folders specified as above. The scanning of software and plugins doesn't really work for me in the sense that it detects too much and that some things are not detected. I'm only flying with the B748 freighter, so I don't care about the rest.

How to create the right addon mappings

  • Download and install Navigraph FMS Data Manager on your system
  • Start the program and navigate to Addon Mappings
  • Create a new mapping for X-Plane (in the pulldown list) and choose /Custom Data as the user defined folder ( is the main X-PLane folder)
  • Create a new mapping for SSG Boeing 748i, E-jets Evolution (in the pulldown list) and choose /Custom Data/UFMC as the user defined folder
  • Click Save
  • Go to Addon List
  • Check the global checkbox and select Update, both should be updated

Verifying the AIRAC version

  • For X-Plane, select the default 747 and start a new flight. Click on the FMC, hit and the following screen should tell you that you've installed the right AIRAC data.
  • For the B748 FMC, select the B748 and start a new flight. Click on the FMC, hit and check the AIRAC version.

After configuring the 2 paths in de FMS Data Manager en updating, you should see something like this:

As you can see below, the right AIRAC is read by X-Plane and the B748 FMC:
