	How do you add new fmc data to the modern airliners (767 757 777) ?

	The NavData for Captain Sim products can be found in [MSFSX Directory]\Captain_Sim\navigation. I've never taken a look at the files themselves for CS, but I have edited the files from another developer to add an airport that wasn't included. There's a specific format you have to follow to add information on each airport or waypoint that you insert. The latest AIRAC cycle is always available on Navigraph for just a few dollars.

	Like Mark said, they are in Database format (database files have the same icon as DLL files). Just select "Open With" and choose notepad. I'll take a look at the formatting used, since if it's anything like other addons, it won't be logically formatted at all.

	The digits before the airport code, I don't know, but the after ones seem to be latitude and longitude (coordinates) of the airport. e.g. 13;KJFK;40.639750;-73.778925 > 40.639750N; 73.778925W Pinatubo.

	That number before the airport (126) for KLAX is the elevation. Not sure about the unknown number for the airways and waypoints. And for the runways, the first (00CA) is the airport code, the second is (my guess) the ILS Frequency, and the third (again a guess) the ILS heading.
