Depending on the country concerned the may be shown on the aerodrome chart, but certainly should be in the text section. I am absolutely aware of the paper world. My question was regarding the data in Skydemon, where to find that data to see why it is not working as intended. I will check with my custom airfields on the next trip anyway and expect, following Tim Dawsons comment, that it pulls my threshold data from the custom data editor. If not, I'll be back for sure. What did you find out?

Sorry, to repeat myself, where do I find the threshold location data for a specific airfield? I know where to look at the custom data airfields, but did not find the data for the Skydemon fields at first search. The airfield tab approach information only shows the AIP coordinates.

It uses the threshold coordinate of the runway you have selected. Sorry, this is not what I encountered. Where do I find the threshold coordinates of an airfield to check a specific one? In the AIP.

That is how I thought SD works and how I believe to have read it (in the manual?). I was about to question the usefulness of SD’s pseudo-ILS feature. Eric
