Thanks for any info.


I was just searching for LXe to try to support an old Colibri logger,
and found it on the LXNavigation website.Â* Version 3.5.1.1

Airports and Airpace database was not there, but found a 2014 version on
an old computer.Â* I can email that to you.

LXe and the database actually installed OK on w Win10 computer, but
complained about not finding any COMM ports.Â* Those can be added
manually on Win10.Â* haven't tried accessing the logger yet, but it may
actually still be usable on Win10.

To follow up, LXe actually still runs on a Win10 computer, had to
install their special USB driver, then manually create a COMM port from
inside Device Manager.

Database files they provide are all German, African, or European, so
you'll need to provide your own data.
