Brief description of the issue:
EDDK RWY 32L an 32 R getting renamed during magnetic shift to 31L an 31R. All Aircraft with the default NAV Data Base still show 32L and R with no SID/ARR to select. All ACFT with Custom Nav Data like PMDG show the correct RWY number 31L an R
Provide Screenshot(s)/video(s) of the issue encountered:
MS/Inibuilds and Aerosoft will have to update their sceneries.
The issue affects basically all aircraft except Fenix/PMDG which have their own navdata which is consistent.
With the FBW you select the runways (can only select the old names) and it doesn’t offer you any SIDs or STARs.
So at least in the near future, you should have the correct runway-idents for EDDK in the stock scenery too - what means, you can select all terminal procedures than.
Nope, no update still. Aerosoft’s last official word on their forums on Friday was that they are working on the update but have no release date for it.
There’s a community workaround that was included in the CTP briefing for EDDK, but it’s just a workaround to have the runways (additionally) in the FMS.
It can be found in the vatget KB (link is in the red box):
Runway designators are extremely important especially for the landing and taking off of aircraft. They may undergo minor changes over time. That is because shifts occur in the magnetic poles of the world at distances of up to 60-70 kilometers per year. Which means, that the magnetic heading of the runway changes as well. You know, that is the thingy the compass shows and depends on where you are on this planet.
So it happens that airports may have to change these runway designators from time to time - and all procedures and approaches with them. I trust you are familiar with procedures and approaches.
Anyway, EDDK stands for the Cologne-Bonn airport, a not-so-small hub in Germany. You surely know where that is. They had to change the designators for their main runways a couple weeks ago.
And many in the German online flying community (we simulate real air traffic there, you know) were hoping that you would fix that soon. Primarily those who use aircraft which are based on the navigational data of the simulator. Which in turn means that all current nav data for EDDK are unusable with these aircraft at the moment.
Well, you missed it. SU15 came, with lots of content updates, and nothing changed. Would have been a good opportunity, wouldn’t it? But then again, it may be that you are making a game and not a simulator.
In this case, at least, give us access to these data and let us do it ourselves. As we did in other simulators before this one.
I had heard that runway designators could be fixed via the World Hub? Perhaps it can be tagged by staff as such and a community member will be able to fix it for a future World Hub update.
Would it be possible to change the runways in the Inibuilds Asobo Scenery? When controlling on vatsim and pilots have those scenery and the standard navdata they do not have runway 31r/l 13l/r. Its not so important if the visual signs in the scenery are wrong. alternatively just add those runways in the scenery database to the old ones 32r/l 14l 14r, that would help us quite a lot.

Brief description of the issue:
with AIRAC 2405 EDDK changed the runway desgniations from 14L/R to 13L/R and 32L/R to 31L/R. This change did not happen to the scenery airport. this mismatch make it impossible to choose SIDs/STARs for this runways and 13L/31R is the mainly used runway at EDDK

If relevant, provide additional screenshots/video:
there were several updates now for the standard airports in MSFS but the iniBuilds/Asobo Cologne/Bonn Airport still have wrong runway designators for 2 runways. 14L/32R which is now 13L/31R and 14R/32L which is now 13R/31L. I hope this will be changed soon, because you are not able to choose SID’s or STARS for that Runways in every MSFS Standard Aircraft which uses the MSFS Navigation Data because of the runway designator missmatch!
