Just bought the 182. Is there nav data for this aircraft ? If yes, where is it located on my Win 7 PC? I use data from Navigraph.
Thank you,
Ken Boardman

Re: Nav Data
Hi Ken,
By default, the 182 uses the default GPS gauge in FSX/P3D in which case the sim's own nav data is used. This can be updated, for example using https://www.aero.sors.fr/navaids3.html.
I don't believe that the Navigraph Navdata Center app is currently able to update the nav data within P3D or FSX, but it seems this may be a planned feature. From their website: "FMS Data Manager is used to update addons for the other simulators including X-Plane, Prepar3D and FSX. Eventually the Navdata Center app will be used to update these platforms too."
Alternatively, customers who own RealityXP or Flight1 GPS gauges (GNS and/or GTN) can install these in the 182 using the aircraft configurator. The exact models supported by the configurator will depend on the host sim being used. These are all based on Garmin's trainer, which includes its own, standalone navigation database.
Thanks,
Nick

Re: Nav Data
Thank you for the fast and helpful reply Nick. I've discovered that the 182 offers some very nice default Nav
instrument / display options which will be more than good, for me.
Best regards,
Ken
