I even downloaded a tutorial that explanes how to set up the fmc, no prob got a route but I have seen no where that explanes what the CO ROUTE is. what you put in there. Also I am havbing problems with jetways. like j66 or j131, or any jetway. it say's not in database. other then those two minor thing I am having a blast! Thanks for the help.David

have seen no where that explanes what the CO ROUTE is

this is from Timothy M. Metzinger's Advanced FMC operations v1.01.pdf downloadable from www.avsim.com====Saving a routeThe active route page 1 comes up. If we press LSK 5L, we

And the link to it..http://library.avsim.net/esearch.php?CatID...misc&DLID=35813

Co route is short for Company Route....and to take it short..it's saved flightplans with almost all info in it.So if you fly the same route every day,as most companies does, they just load the saved route.The saved routes is in the PMDG/Flightplans folder and are named eks.enbrengm001.rte. And if you type that into the fmc and press the coroute button the route is loaded.You still have to put in some datas yourselves,but all the wp's are there :)Johnny"I'LL BE BACK"[div align=center]http://www.avsim.com/hangar/fly/josve/zone.jpg ][/div

Ok to answer your jetways querry (first enter in the waypoints before and after the jetway - may need some sort of enroute chart!)then you will need to go to the rte page, then page 2 of the rte page, find the waypoints before and after the jetway and then enter the jetway instead of direct.Example in the UK to AMSTERDAM you would more than likley find L620 jetway to REDFA from CLNCLN to REDFA via L620 would be done like this (Normally displayed rte page 2+)Direct BPKDirect CLNL620 REDFAsorry if this is all a bit confusing or if this is not what you were afterBut I hope this Helps :)Thanks Mark

Ok, my turn ;)COROUTE - Company route. This is the way that the FMC can bring up saved flightplans. For instance, if you flew a flight from EGLL-EHAM, and saved your flightplan, you can recall it at a later date by going to the RTE page, and entering EGLLEHAM, and then press the LSK by the COROUTE entry(3R?)Not in database - do you have the latest navdata installed?

Ahh that helped alot. thanks yall for the help.
