upload data to share

[Werner]

Would be great to give the possibility to upload minor informations. especially for small or inofficial airfields.
For exemple the circuit grafic, PDF, frequency, contact phone..near restaurants, fuel aivability, temporary lockings..

Also would be helpful to update changes in the other data..

Good idea to allow users to share such information when they add elements to their FIF database.

Note that this this forum can already be used as a vector for sharing.
You simply export your element (points, patterns or airspaces) in one of the formats supported by FlyIsFun and add the file to your post.

Unfortunately, the forum does not accept attachment with extensions like "gia", but for small sets of data, you can simply include the contents in your post.
I also tried to rename the file type as ".txt", but this is also not supported by the forum.

A workaround is to include the contents in your post as in this example (.gia format)::

I have enabled uploading the FIF formats. So now it is possible to upload nav database data...
