March 13, 200620 yr Trying to enter this flightplan from PHNL to RJAA and when I enter the first waypoint 2500N 17000W (2570N) it is no where near the proper distance from my previous coordinate (CANON). So can somone help with the proper way to enter it into the FMC. I have never had trouble while entering the coordinates across the Atlantic.KEOLA2 LILIA V15 CANON 2500N 17000W 2700N 18000E 2900N 17000E 3100N 16000E 3400N 15000E SEALS OTR13 VACKY OTR14 PETAL OTR20 LIBRAThanks Andrew

March 13, 200620 yr Author Thanks Jim on both replies. Seems I get a not in database error when I enter as you have it. Cant figure out why I am havinf so much trouble with the Pacific.;( Andrew
March 13, 200620 yr Maybe the AIRAC you're using is too old. I tried it exactly like I have it in the reply and it worked, though some of the waypoints were over 1000nm apart. Did you have a destination airport entered in the route?Jim Karnhttp://www.precisionmanuals.com/images/forum/pmdg_pf.jpg
March 13, 200620 yr Do you enter the coordinates on the route pages or the leg pages? Think I have only succeeded on the leg pages./ Jesper
March 13, 200620 yr Author I tried on both I just used Routfinder to make the route which is a shame because it added about 800 miles to the route. I will try and update my AIRAC and see if I can get this worked out.Thanks Andrew
