@OPFOR77 is right falcon.
Everyone will see you as a 747, regardless of what you file.

I don't see the point.

You know that you can use the Navigraph AIRAC in the level d767 xml format. Right?
After you get it you can use it directly for the A330 or you could rename it into ICAO.procedures.xml and put it in FGSCENERY/Airports
And with Israel's latest navdata update from the XPlane folks you get what the XPlane pilots use.

For people who don't have the money to get p3d/fsx/xplane and their addons can use FG and VATSIM :P

But at the end if you can afford, get P3d/fsx its really awesome. You've my word.

I have a source of like ~500 non-NaviGraph xml files, which are public domain if I recall correctly.

Hmm. I have the LevelD 767. I'll give that a go.

Maybe I will use it's NavData format for my FMS.

If you run Linux, FreeBSD, MacOS or any other system with a working Python interpreter, grab the first package. If you run Windows, you probably do not have Python installed, so grab the second package instead.
In all cases, you need SB747 and AVC too.
