SID/STAR script

Recommended Posts

Hi allHow can I set ABOVE/BELOW altitude parameters on SID/STAR script?If i must intercept a radial from ABC, and intercepting I must overfly that point at, for instance 4000 ft how can I set this parameter, the speed is documentated on manual the altitude is not, I mean:TRK 128 INTERCEPT RADIAL 220 FROM NAVAID ABC (altitude?) SPEED 210How can I set a custom fix as PLACE-BEARING/PLACE-BEARING ?for instance a point crossing radial 235 of CMP and radial 210 from CIA?TnxBye allFabrizio

However you can set the altitude in the FMC at the intc point.Otherwise you have to create a fix at this intc point with the constraints.>How can I set a custom fix as PLACE-BEARING/PLACE-BEARING ?>>for instance a point crossing radial 235 of CMP and radial 210>from CIA?If you fly over one of the navaids, ex: TRK 235 UNTIL RADIAL 210 FROM NAVAID CIA.(not sure if it was this you meant).OR; Create a fix with the COLOCATED command. With some trials and errors you'll be able to find the exact point where the two radials cross. Ex: FIX CROSS COLOCATED MCP 235 10. Then check it in the FMC and adjust the distance until you are exactly on the 210 radial from CIA.OR: Create it directly in the FMC: CMP235/CIA210Or better yet for all your questions: Use an add-on like FSNavigator or NAV 3 to define these type of fixes. Did this answer your questions?

( ex. TRK xxx INTERCEPT RADIAL yyy ALT www SPEED zzz )Anyway tnx a lot for your amswer.Bye
