So at the moment when I setup an ILS landing at any US airport I use the information on Airnav which tells me what stage of the approach to intercept the glide slope, the nav frequency etc.
However they only seem to have american airports and I cant find an equivalent site with the same level of detail as say this https://aeronav.faa.gov/d-tpp/2009/00268IL32.PDF
Any suggestions ?
Was looking for the same thing, for now I use https://acukwik.com/
FltPlan Go on Android has Canadian ones.
I used a combination of this one
http://www.fscharts.com/
and this one
http://airportnavfinder.com/index.php
any resources for Canadian ones on PC?
hi.
used this link
https://www.airnav.com/airport/
You could start from Vatsim Canada where you will find major airports charts.
https://www.vatcan.ca/
I was under the impression all the airports navigation data is contained within the worldmap. I believe, if this is true, you have to really drill down into the location, and eventually it is there. You also have to setup an arrival AP and then just zoom into the WM until it provides the map, as I have seen examples of it doing that. I have not tried it, as my sim won’t work now.
This is map linking to official AIP databases for different countries. Some of these are in the public domain, some may require registration, and some are restricted (you may have to pay to get access).
I use this app, it downloads the charts to your PC, so have them ready if needed again.
Chart Finder 2
this one for the rest of the world : http://apxp.enif.uberspace.de/
I assume this functionality will be coming with the NavBlue Charts+ option for MSFS, but no word yet on when that will make its debut. I strongly suspect that Charts+ will come with some kind of DLC fee, unlike the NavBlue AIRAC data that is embedded in the sim.
Navigraph Charts is another current option, though it is also a paid subscription service.
As others have noted, many national AIP agencies in Europe and elsewhere permit downloading current approach charts for free, but for a flight simmer, that would involve keeping track of multiple different web sites and log-in credentials.
One advantage of a service like Navigraph or Charts+ is you would get immediate access to procedures for many dozens of countries in one unified application.
navigraph airac doesn’t work with fs2020. Besides that AP/FMC/MCDU is completely broken in the current version…so there is no point in paying for the navigraph subscription yet.
I wasn’t referring to the core nav data in the sim itself. The OP’s question was about sources of approach charts for airports outside of the US. Navigraph is one option to obtain worldwide charts, but there are several free sources as well.
Some good websites are:
www.airnav.com - mostly US locations and some outlying locations.
www.skyvector.com - I think worldwide locations via sectional charts, good videos on YT to read them.
https://www.mypilotstore.com/mypilotstore/ - pay for stuff here.
However, in the Sim, under the world map, I think all the information is contained for ILS, etc., via which runway you choose to land on. I think you have to select high altitude airways, but could be wrong. I know I saw that information there just a while ago, while planning flight from KATL to KCHA. I did not setup an ILS approach as i was flying C172G1000 - don’t like G1000 way too much stuff to learn, but this link shows how to use and operate it very well.

I have completed the flight training within the sim, most of the stuff I knew from flying all over the place. I know you can also load old flights from FSX, by using space bar while creating a flight. So old flights are not lost, some changes will need to be made to the plan once imported.
Also the “sim-market” has produced a document outlying FS-2020, but most of the stuff is contained in any number of YT channels dedicated to FS. I did learn some things, but it needs to be way more in-depth, with almost a step by step approach plan/flight plan in a variety of planes. Everyone’s default is either the C152 or C172. No one except Captain Mac has really done in-depth jets in the released sim. Squirel channel has a in-depth flight training in the C172, which is quite good, his last one is on navigation, very good.
