Johannesburg (FAJS) ICAO has now changed to FAOR.

The AIP SUP mentioned in the NOTAM is here. It's important to note that this change was delayed and updated in the NOTAM above.

The ICAO change has now taken place. Navigraph and NavDataPro files for the 1301 AIRAC contain the new ICAO in their database.

The AirSource database has been amended.

Now if we could only figure out how to change the code in the MSFS program...

Just a question.
For flight sim puposes, is it posible to have the AS Data Base use both codes until updated
AFCAD's can be made available (at least for FS9 & FSX)?

I have been directed to a program in another thread to change it myself,
viewtopic.php?f=25&t=6218 but I just
simply do not have the time to learn and work with new software at the moment. (I don't
even have time to devote to painting any more - and I love doing that )
If in the near future I do find the time, I will post here and at FlightSim.com for the rest of the flight
sim community.

This is really no no big deal to me, but I do like to keep it as real and accurate as possible
but I also understand the limitations of the sim-world.

Just humble curiosity - not a complaint nor a bash.
