    Misspelled State/Province info for Cuiabá airport (CGB)

    Posted 2 Jan 2015

    The "State/Province" info shows Matto Grosso, when it should be Mato Grosso.

     

     

    Other airports in the same State in Brazil are Alta Floresta (AFL) and Rondonópolis (ROO). Both also have this misspelling on the State/Province.


    Updated needed for Airport of Natal (NAT)

    Posted 2 Jan 2015

    The airport of Natal (NAT) has passed through important changes since May 2014.

     

    The original airport, called Augusto Severo International Airport was officialy closed on May 31st of 2014, and all flights were transfered to the newly built airport São Gonçalo do Amarante–Governador Aluízio Alves International Airport.

     

    The old airport is now used only by the Brazilian Airforce, and has adopted the IATA code of NSA.

     

    The new airport assumed the old IATA code (NAT), and looking at the passenger info, it seems to have greatly increased so far. But it's important to wait until June 2015 —when it will complete 1 year of operation— to see if those numbers stand or was mainly due to the World Cup in Brazil.

     

    With this change, is important to change the coordinates to the airport and adjust the runway length from 8,530 to 9,842.


    OPS - Sinop Airport wrong state/province name

    Posted 14 May 2014

    Hi there, 

     

    The airport of Sinop (OPS) in Brazil has it's State name incorrect. 

    In AE's DB it's written as Matto Grasso, when the correct is Mato Grosso


    Reims-Cessna F406 range

    Posted 12 May 2014

    Hi there, 

     

    This nice small airplane has an incorrect range in AE's DB.

     

    In game it says that it has 863mi, however if you look in the in the aircraft's wikipedia entry, you can see the range is actually 1327 mi

     

    I've tried to search a more official source, but due to the bankruptcy of the original manufacturer I couldn't find. But I found a few other places which all refer the same range. 

     

    The reason I suspected the range data was incorrect was analyzing the aircraft's size, engine performance, fuel flow and it's competitors. It would be very odd an airplane with such capability have a range so similar to the Cessna C208 Caravan.

    Hi, 

     

    The Brazilian airport IPN - Ipatinga Usiminas Airport name is misspelled in the AE DB. 

     

    It's written as "Usiminias" instead of "Usiminas".
