I have no trouble with Sector files like LA ZLA12 or the UK ones of a single line but I have downloaded Sector Files for Melbourne and Brisbane which have about 18 files i.e. bn_tma, bn_arl etc and I don't seem to be able to get the Radar screen. Have I got the wrong files. Can anyone [Mod - Happy Thoughts]ist please?.

Mate, you have the right files, they are meant to be broken up like that. Yes, the are meant to look different from the LA or UK ones. Read the title of the file. sytma = Sydney TMA. ml-bik = ML-BIK_CTR. We are such a big country a universal sector file would be too big, so they have been broken up.

For Australia www.vatpac.org then from the menu on the left of the screen "Airspace" then "Secto Files" then "Australia" then select those you want. Don't forget to get the pof file "Australian POF Mar 06 " as well.
