I am also curious about this. Why aren't all of the 5-letter fixes included in the database we are supplied? It would make it much easier when transferring a flight plan from one device or service (sky vector) to another. Entering lat/lon is too error prone.

Thanks!

Guys,

Thanks for reporting this. Seems we have a problem: I found the fixes in other sites, then I found them in our FAA feed, then I found them in our distributed databases. So after some head scratching, I looked at the code - and I found a simple bug in how we are processing the data so they are not showing in the search results. I'm going to rebuild the aviation database and publish a new version which corrects the issue. I'll post here again when it's done. Sorry for the trouble...

Thanks!
Walter
