Aircraft home airport is wrong - paul01942 - 04-20-2021
Hi Guys,
I've recently purchased in the General Aviation hanger a 1972 Piper (I-SQLV) I wanted my home airport to be EGCB (Barton Aerodrome) but instead it has made this aircraft's home LIRN (Naples) is there a way to change this?
I 'am on a tour of Italy in the aircraft at the moment, but ideally I'd like its home to be Barton.

Paul,
I see this aircraft home location as LIMC not LIRN. I'm not sure I can make that change as it may affect all past flights for the aircraft so would need to test that, but first making sure I'm looking at the right aircraft in the database table?

Hey Tom,
No worries leave it as it is it'll be fine I was just wondering if it was a simple task.

Took some database table surgery
but think I got it updated for you Paul. The new registration is G-TPNZhttp://air-source.us/Operations/asga/vi ... sp?id=1995

I seem to have a similar problem, I recently Purchased a Douglas C-47 Skytrain (G-AVCH) and changed its homebase to EGPN however i got an error saying 'this registration is already in use' and the homebase remained EGPE when purchased. :? Its not a huge deal i just thought it may be worth noting.

Hi, I have just purchased a Maule and am about to fly it home to Deadhorse (PASC) FROM Shoreham in the UK.
I would like it's home airport to be changed to PASC if that is possible. Is it also possible to change it's Registration Number to VPY-YC ?
Thanks in anticipation??

Hello Simon,
Done! One thing though, the registration code for Gibraltar show as format VP-GAA-VP-GZZ so shows in our database as as VP-YYC. Is this replicating a real world aircraft and does it have registration VPY-YC? I am thinking VP-GYC but let me know what you think we can adjust if needed.

Hi Tom, you have done it right, it should be VP-YYC. Thanks so much, Just finished the flight up to Wick in Scotland. Over to the Faroe Islands next. Great fun! About 14 flights to get home. Plotted them out on FSX Maps.
Thanks again.

It was a real world aircraft, a Cessna, back in the 1970's..
