Spine / Re: Latest version: V5.7
« Last post by KMorgan on 04-Apr-2011, 12:43:36 »
Jeff

Just updated to 5.7 and am getting the "incorrect database format" (or something like that) error.  I've tried uninstalling and deleting all Spine files/folders in app data that I can find.  However, I still get the error once I've installed Spine gain.  Any help really appreciated as I lurv Spine.  Win7 64 btw.

Cheers

Keith

After opening registration again for a short time, I have had to close it down again due to floods of spam attempts.

Spine / Re: D216 shown as a Restricted area to FL150

Thanks Jeff for investigating this.

By the way the update for v5.7 apparently installed on my Windows XP system without any problems.  I didn't need to re-install from scratch.

More on this. I have contacted Croft Brown and he agrees there are errors, specifically with the duplication of D216. He will be issuing an amended update shortly.

No, it's nothing to do with code - it's data.

I took the Croft Brown airspace from here (Tim Newport-Peace format) and adapted it for Spine. It needed adapting because CB set all danger areas to TYPE=PROHIBITED, which I changed back to TYPE=DANGER. Otherwise there would be solid red splodges all over the map.

As for D216, I see it appears twice with different top alt and slightly different coordinates in different parts of the file:

Croft Brown original
Code: [Select]
#  Dated 20 Mar 03  ENR 5-1-3-11
INCLUDE=YES
TYPE=PROHIBITED
TITLE=D216:CREDENHILL
BASE=SFC
TOPS=2300ALT
CIRCLE RADIUS=2.00 CENTRE=N520453 W0024806

#
INCLUDE=YES
TYPE=RESTRICTED
TITLE=D216 CREDENHILL
BASE=SFC
TOPS=FL150
CIRCLE RADIUS=2.00 CENTRE=N520449 W0024759

My changes just involved changing the PROHIBITED to DANGER. I didn't notice the duplication.

I don't have an up to date chart (retired from gliding), so perhaps you could post what the chart actually says this should be (with the correct coordinates.

Spine / D216 shown as a Restricted area to FL150

Jeff,  I've just installed v5.7 and on the plot of airspace and notams I see D216 Credenhill (near Hereford) as a restricted area up to FL150.  I am unaware that this is a restricted area.  I suspect that it may be that the new feature to display danger area details in a pop-up may be misbehaving.  Please can you have a look and see whether I've misunderstood something?

Thanks Phil King

TpTask / Re: TP task 2010

There was a general problem caused by introducing 4-character TP names by the first update to the 2010 turning point list, so there has been a second update.

Ooops. I usually get a reminder when the TP file is updated. It didn't happen this time, so I will sort this out. Thanks.

PS: There is some confusion over amendment level numbers which I am currently sorting out with Tim Newport-Peace. Once that's done, the files will be updated (both for TpTask and Spine - TN-P looks after TpSelect now, which is why that got updated and not the others).
