Quick FMC question

Featured Replies

when you program the FMC on the legs page, do you also have to enter the altitude at each fix or waypoint?if yes, what happens if you don't have that information?do you just leave it blank?

Negative. The FMC will calculate your altitude for you. If you enter an altitude, the FMC will do its best to meet that constraint.

thx so in reality you don't need to add speed or alt on the fmc only the waypoints? and the FMC will do the resT?

As Randy said you need a cruise alt. The proper FMC preflight flow is covered in my tutorial and Tim Metzinger's tutorial, I suggest you take a look at how the FMC is preflighted. In my tutorial, I cover only what is really necessary to get the plane off of the ground.
