To download a file, press the green arrow on the right side of the file. The red circle is used to delete a file.

To import a file in a particular group, press the file icon with the blue arrow on the right side of the group name. A selection popup will appear on top of the page. On most browsers, after a file is selected, it will start uploading immediately. On older browsers, you may need to press the «Upload» button to start uploading.

To upload a PDF document and associate it to a specific airfield, you must add the ICAO code of the airport where you want the PDF to appear at the beginning of the pdf name ( Example: LSGG _Geneva_approach.pdf ). You can then upload the document in the «Appcharts» section. If Air Navigation cannot find an airfield matching the 4 letter prefix of the file, an error message will appear and the PDF will not be installed.


Note: make sure to separate the ICAO code of the airfield from the airfield's name using an underscore (_).
