Nice aircraft but ......

it's a shame you have to plan a flight for a singe sitting if you want to use the FMC for VNAV and LNAV. I have VNAV working and FMC speed but cannot get LNAV to work on account of being unable to delete the first waypoint in the plan.Aw well - I guess I'll hafta stay at the controls and fly laterally manually.Andy b

Exactly what are you referring to when you say you can't delete the first waypoint? You know you can line select any waypoint in the flightplan to the top to go direct to it or you can enter another waypoint in over top of it right??

Who says you CAN delete the active waypoint? Try MODifiying it ;)[h4]Best Wishes,Randy J. Smithhttp://www.precisionmanuals.com/images/betaimg.jpg

Hey I have not read even the manuals lol. But I seem to recall that the first active (active being key here) cannot be *deleted* but can be changed. Bill Bulfer's FMC Guide is very nice in this regard (advanced FMC operations). Of course it costs as much as the aircraft Ugh... [h4]Best Wishes,Randy J.
