Hi, im new here so im not sure if this is in the correct place..
Anyway i bought a i3 over the weekend and got it fitted tonight and it got me from A-B very well, anyway as ive been having play with it to see how it all works ive found i cant put in an address for a RAF can which i maybe visiting on Friday. It seems to have two RAF camps installed in its address finding thing but not the one i want neither can i put the address in for it as i need a door number and street to which the camp doesnt have.
Is there anyway i can get this to accept the address i need to arrive at?? |

You need to be very careful entering the RAF addreses, as quite a few use the same postcode!! - I have seen a POI file for RAF Bases, its either in the POI's page on this site, or it might have been on POIHandler.com, I will have a look in the morning (tired now) - Mike |

Go to www.poihandler.com create an account (its free) then go to download POI, confirm Country, select "Military" as the Main group, British RAF Bases as the Subgroup.
Thsi file contains the following : Kinloss/ Lossiemouth/ Leuchars/ Stafford/ Boscombe/ Brize/ Odiham/ Waddington and Whittering.
Which base are you going to ? - I might be able to add it to a file, I know where most of them are - Mike |
