new to flight sims charts question

a few questions about using charts to navigate.

 

1. Where do i get charts?

 

2. Will they be compatible with the FSX does the geography match?

 

3. Are there any good youtube, online guides that I can use for navigating?

 

4. Having trouble doing the VOR instrument pilot mission because I cannot find the chart, where am i suppose to get it?

 

Thank you very much,

Welcome to the forums.

 

1. You can find them on the internet. For example, a search with the keywords "VIDP charts" will get you the charts.

 

2. Most probably no, unless you are using the charts from 2005 or the fact that you are having a recent updated scenery.

 

3. What kind of guide for navigation?

 

4. If you press Shift+F10 while you're doing the mission, you'll find the required charts under the Briefing tab.

 

Good luck.

thanks so much for the info. I'm using FTX scenery, Global, Australia, Europe, and PNW, how do I find out if they are updated, and what charts would work?

 

Basically I want to know how to get corresponding charts to do VOR navigation.

Did you check out http://www.skyvector.com?

FTX does NOT use updated navdata.

Ok Ive checked out the site, i compared a few of the approach charts with the ingame FSX charts, they seem to be more or less the same. So despite FSX being outdated, the most recent charts should generally be okay to use?

Yes, unless there were some changes in the recent times.

For those who have iPads, I recommend FltPlan Go app. I use it real world and for sims. Don't provide Jeppesen charts but they use the government ones. They provide consistent update for real world use. And it's FREE!
