February 26, 200620 yr I built my first flightplan in the 744 FMC yesterday from WMKK to WMKL and saved it--or so I thought--by going to clicking on RTE > RTE COPY. I was then unable to find it in the PMDG flightplan folder with the hundreds of pre-built PMDG flightplans afterwards. On closer inspection, I found it had been saved in the PMDG flightplan folder as "-.rte"I then renamed the file manually as WMKKWMKL001.rte, went into the FMC, clicked on RTE > CO ROUTE and entered the whole name string and voila, it re-appeared in the FMC.But this is weird. I thought that the FMC automatically names the flightplan fully and properly, based on the departing/arriving airport names and according to the PMDG protocol.Did I do something wrong or what's going on here?Appreciate guidance, thanks!Jonathan Jonathan Sacks Dell XPS Gen 4, Pentium IV Northwood extreme 3.8Ghz, 3Ghz RAM, eVGA 7900 GTO, 12 GoFlight modules plus MCP-PRO AP and EFIS, GF pedestal, CH rudder pedals, CH throttle quadrant, 42" LG LED, 24" DELL LCD, Windows XP, FS2004, FSUIPC 3.96 FS Autostart 1.1 (Build 11), FS Navigator 4.6, UT, FE, GE, REX, PMDG, Level-D, PSS, etc.
