Yesterday I did fly with LK8000 version 7.4.32 and found out that Airspaces are not loaded, so I did not see any Airspaces and got no warnings.
I just confirmed on another phone is also the case.
I use the Airspaces provided by LK8000 via the download feature within LK8000.
I think it is a problem with the airspace files (.AIP) because another file (.txt) did load and the DEMO.TXT file also loads.
I hope somebody can look into this ASAP, as this is a safety feature.
Thanks.
In previous Beta versions it worked just fine. |

Trying to get it working
Removed LK8000 Beta Restarted the phone Re-Installed LK8000 Beta 7.4.33 Downloaded German and Netherlands Airspace files using the LK8000 Download feature. In System setup page 1 selected the airspaces
Airspaces do not show up on the map
In System setup page 2 checked colors but no database is present, when clicking the database button nothing shows up.
I tried the same airspace files in the stable version(downloaded the latest files) of LK8000, but in the stable version it works just fine.
Conclusion in LK8000 Beta 7.4.33 the airspace loading is broken. Files are just fine.
I will try again by removing LK8000 Beta completely, so also all data and start over with a clean slate. Maybe that will help

I have just tried with removing LK8000 beta completely including all data, restart the phone and reinstall everything, but the same issue persists, the airspace files do not load, no database present. Restarted LK8000 beta several times, but no help.
The DEMO.TXT airspace DOES load,.and shows the database.
So the xxxx.AIP Airspace files do NOT load, but the xxxx.TXT files do load.
I will try to find TXT airspace files that do show up the Airspaces normally and not as unknown.
Btw, the Waypoint (airport) data in AIP format does load normally. |

| Hi Marco, not much help I know but the UK airspace loaded from our own source, ASSelect UK, in Open Air format, works just fine in beta versions. |

Thanks Bruno,
For now the sharp edge of urgency is removed as I have downloaded some files from the Open AIP database, that cover most known airspace types in LK8000, used the OpenAir version 2 formatted airspace files..
https://www.openaip.net/
But it is quite a hassle to download from that database, like it is not under the download button, but you have to go into a menu and select data base download, then you have to filter for your area and then select the format you wish... you also have to register an account before you are able to download anything.
BUT, the data seems to be complete and updated all the time.
Kind regards
