Misalignment of ILS with runway due to data in the "curated" data file

Navaid issue

The location data for ILG currently in Custom Scenery/Global Airports/Earth nav data/earth_nav_dat results in an ILS approach left of center and headed several degrees right relative to the runway. The attached file shows the plane's position about 50 ft. above the runway.
When this file is temporarily disabled, forcing the use of the default nav data, the approach is on center and properly in line. Interestingly, the lat., lon. and heading numbers for ILG in the default earth_nav_dat file (in Resources) are identical with those in the Navigraph-sourced file inside Custom Data:
lat. -2.169666667; lon. -79.890722222; heading 209.940
The numbers in Custom Scenery///earth_nav_dat:
lat. -2.17055600; lon. -79.891111100; heading 210.128
I believe the ILG data in the present Custom Scenery///earth_nav_dat file should be replaced with the data in Resources///earth_nav_dat.

    Thanks! The update to SEGU ILS 21 will be included in the next release of X-Plane that includes updated ILS data. - Robin
