FMC Route question

Recommended Posts

As most of you are aware some SIDs require you to fly radials and turnat certain distances from DMEs where there aren't any specific nav points. I know I could work out the distances and turns by creating fixes in the FMC and displaying them but always wondered if somehow these points can be programmed in the FMC as a leg entry that LNAV would recognise and fly. Thanks

I think you just answered your own question.If you've already created them then they should display on the ND and be incorporated into your existing flight plan in the legs page. It's just a matter of making sure they are in the right order.From there you can continue to fly using LNav.

Yup.. just look in the book. There is a whole chapter on defining and using custom waypoints (12-27).
