Airfield duplication and incorrect data

OK Folks got a little problem here

AGKG Kaghau - on the island of Kukudu in the Solomon Islands - nice little strip with some neat easter eggs for my pilots
S7* 19 .85/E157* 35.23 10 foot elevation 2400 foot grass strip

Cant miss it - its agot a cruise ship tied up to the dock there

AGKU Kolombangara (also on the Island of Kukudu)
S8*.01.16 /E156*56.83 elevatioon 20 foot 1800 foot of crushed coral

OK the problem seems to be that FLynet THINKS that Kaghau and Kolombangara are the SAME airport
So presently I have a Skyvan trapped at AGKG AFTER I made a perfect flight there AND GOT penalized for landing at the
wrong airfield

So - would some one PLEASE remove the 2 entries of AGKU and reload the correct one (as shown here) AND Knonny may i have my money back plse????

Lief, it's easier for you to go in and edit the bad numbers on the existing entries and then PM one of the DB Admins with which airport needs to be removed (if any). You can edit airports just as you can edit aircraft types.

Has the edit bug of 3 significant figures been resolved for the correct input of Airfield Longitude ?
Last time I tried it it would only take 2 ?

This one needs deleting :- http://flynet.en-studios.de/forum/viewtopic.php?t=1160

Is there a list of DB admins anywhere ?

thanks

Thanks Chris

Ive already changed AGKU in the Data base - the one that needs removing is the one that say AGKU - Kukudu

Hopefully that will fix everything except the loss I took by landing at the CORRECT airport last night

as I said its a shame because a couple of the Skyvan routes in the Solomons will test your ability at short field AND

provide some interesting scenery



Cheers

Everything's been updated. Sadly, the wrong database entry appears to have been deleted and thus any flights to and from Fare will need to be redone.

Sorry Lief, I deleted the second entry on the list, and it appears to have been the one that everything was linked to because when I went back, the one left didn't have any flights to or from it, which it did the first time, so I dunno what happened.

Chris _ IM still showing the second one as present - BUT you did delete the correct one - The other AGKU has NO Flights
AGKG (Kaghau) DOES have one flight a day


Cannot figure out HOW they got duped as I loaded the Solomon islands intially and used the data I had From The Australian DOT which MATCHED the scenery and AFCADS I had

It Didnt do any good , Still showing "Not at correct airport" message - plus its still duped - Why dont you just go ahead and delete both AGKU and AGKG completely and Ill re apply them - see if thats doing any good - Its a bit frustrating because its
costing me to shunt the aircraft and myself around (like THAT matters LOL) but I'd like to get it sorted so my guys can starting flying those sectors


Cheers

You're welcome, but the disappearing thing is a Konny issue. Sorry bud, you'll be stuck until he can get to it. :(

Hm, when I log in with your account everything looks good. You show up in the roster and you have booked a flight. Do you still have any problems ?

Thank you Konny

As soon as I moved myself and the Aircraft back to Henderson I magiacally reappeared (which is what I had surmised would happen). So everything seems to have returned to status quo, hopefully when when of the village worthies relaods the Correct Date for the two airfields that I provided we can continue with our route structureI went back and looked at the original uploaded data and the problem seems to have been they were added to the DB with the same NAME but different lat and lons.
