The Captain_Sim\navigation\user folder designed for custom IAPs, SIDs and STARs.

For example, if your custom files:
KJFK_iaps.db
KJFK_sids.db
KJFK_stars.db
are in the Captain_Sim\navigation\user
folder, they will be used instead of main databases IAPs.db SIDs.db STARs.db
for KJFK.

You can modify files in Captain_Sim\navigation\user as you like without a risk of damaging the main database.

Custom files can be used immediately after they are saved.
No need to restart an aircraft, just press DEP ARR button and re-select the desired sid, star or approach in the FMC.

Files in Captain_Sim\navigation\user won't be overwritten by navdada cycle updates.


:D Thanks for explanation, and more for actually including this function, that's way better than some other add-ons to keep my  customer airport alive.
BTW does it work for other dbs like Airports.db?
