Not sure if this includes what you are after:
South Pacific Airspace Scenery

This scenery replaces the sparse default airspaces in the South Pacific with a detailed and accurate set. Provided in this scenery are the airspaces of New Zealand, the Cook Islands, Samoa, American Samoa, and Tonga. All control areas (CTA) are replaced by accurate representations and all control zones (CTR) have been added. Also updated are all waypoints and routes (IFR). Overall, this scenery provides a much more realistic ATC experience over the default. If you don't want to miss out on a realistic ATC experience then make sure you have this file installed.

You will need to update your FMC database by installing the latest airac (payware) from http://www.navdata.at

Even then, I don't know if it will have any SID/STAR procedures for New Zealand...

you can download STAR's and SID's aswel from that website.
Can you use the Level-D FMC downloads as they have NZWN and NZAA

The Navdata stuff now uses Navigraph (since the US stopped giving out DAFIF data for free), so you have to purchase Navigraph credits now to download the Navdata data.

I wouldn't say that you would be able to use the Level-D downloads as they may be formatted differently to the Wilco ones - but I can't say for sure as I don't know.

Perhaps look at how the Wilco FMS formats its data, and see if you can put in the SID/STAR data by yourself. smile.gif

Thanks.
It doesn't matter anymore, though, I've learned how to enter a waypoint using longitude and latitude.
