I want to add 74S, KOTS Anacortes WA as it is currently not available for flight planning. Please advise.

Thanks
Don

All you need to do is to add it to the apts.txt file in your FSBuild directory. Make a backup of that file first! Note that entries are alphabetical by airport code. The file content is pretty much self-explanatory.

I followed what you said and I successfully added the airport. The Lat and Longs were a little confusing. Can this be put in some type of master list?

Hi,

I'm glad you got it working. . . I don't think Ernie supports this sort of thing, but it really is pretty easy for airports. Do remember that you will have to put that data into every new release of the nav data that you get, so save a master copy somewhere.
