Hello Guys,I'm trying to fly the VOR/DME 35 Approach into Kerkyra/Corfu/LGKR.This basically involves Over the top of Garitsa vor GAR (N39E19 roughly) at 4500' GAR147/9 @ 2900' followed by GAR166/9 @2900' then final descent to touch down.Problem is..... When I select GAR in the scratchpad and then LS? I am presented with a choice of aids. I select the appropriate aid and I find the track from Tigra intersection is roughly 115 which ties up. I then scratchpad GAR147/9 and it autoselects another GAR station some 3000nm away with a track of 315. How do I overcome this please.....

How do I overcome this please.....Instead of typing GAR147/9 into the scratchpad, try selecting GAR from the LEGS page using the LSK (which transfers it into the scratchpad), then just type the 147/9 at the end of GAR and insert it into the plan.Also, is this in the LEGS page or the RTE page where you're doing this?

Adrian,Interesting. I will bring this up to the beta test mail list level to see if this is something that has been looked at for SU2.Regards,

LSK GAR then add 147/92. Typing GAR then add 147/93. Deleting GAR then re-inserting it then as above to no effect.In the meantime,How do I get the FMC to fly a track after a point....EG I've defined a user waypoint eg MAY120/3 which appears as MAY01.I then want to TRACK 090 from MAY01. I know it won't let me input MAY01090 but I can input MAY01/6 and i'll get 6 miles beyond MAY01.I know that within the various SIDS and STARS one can input VECTOR, INTC... etc My question is HOW DO YOU PROGRAM this into the FMC direct?All help suggestions (poilite ones hehehehe) greatly received!

UPDATE INFOOriginally I tried to program the VOR approach during the Cruise phase, Tracking towards GAR VOR from Tigra intersection, I tried again to program the infamous GAR147/9 - This time it worked!It seems that if you are near the beacon then it will accept it otherwise the problem remains.:-eek
