Overfly Waypoint s?

Recommended Posts

Guest wheelersimflyer

Hi Colleagues,I've scanned the manual and, may have missed it but, can't find out how to programme a waypoint or VOR over fly.To clarify. All the routes I have entered always commence a turn before reaching any specific waypoint. What I want to do is overfly a waypoint and then turn.regards.

Hi Kelvin,As in real life FLY_OVER waypoints can only be included in the pre-programmed procedures i.e. your SID/STAR files.A pilot can never program a FLY-OVER waypoint into the FMC. Those will always be FLY-BY waypoints.So. To conclude, if you wan't a fly-over waypoint, make sure it's included in your SID/STAR procedure.There's a good reference on how to make terminal procedures on the www.precisionmanuals.com downloads page.Hope it helps;
