Listers,
Anyone aware of data base to retrieve airport Lat/Lon, msl, ID etc to download to MapSource as waypoints? Manual data entry is very time consuming.

Many thanks,
Ken

Ken –

Here is a method that I use, but it is a little convoluted:

1. Go to the following web site: http://www.faa.gov/airports_airtraffic/airports/airport_safety/airportdata_5010

2. Enter some criteria and then push the select button. For Example, you can select state of Washington and Public Use.

3. Another page will appear. Select the Airport Facilities Data link under Data Downloads near the bottom of the page.

4. This will open an Excel file that contains a bunch of info about the airports you selected including altitude, latitude and longitude.

I hope this helps.

Bill
