April 17, 201016 yr I'm only familiar with Boeing style FMCs and can program them backwards. But how would I enter this into a Citation X FMS? I only know how to program the actual waypoint, not the airway info.BGQ J124 GKN NCA14 APMAL NCA14 YNE VBI J538 DLH J89 BGOSH J89 OBK J73 PXVSo how would I program in J124 for GKN? Would I just ignore that and fly BGQ to GKN then APMAL ignoring the airway info?Didn't want to ask in the eaglesoft forums for fear of being called a newbie or not reading the docs! Thanks
April 17, 201016 yr I don't think you can...But why would you need to?

ThanksWell, as it happens, this sample page from the new "LROPS Manual*" for the Citation X explains how:http://www.lrops.com/cxsample3.pdfAlso, reading the questions and answers at the official forum(s) is very, very informative.* http://lrops.com/store/product_info.php?pr...e6a088814a85ebf Fr.

Read the docs!!!Now that we've covered the trivial details... here's how you'd enter it:J124.GKNThe big hidden clue... the prompt on the FMS states VIA.TO above the empty _______.

April 17, 201016 yr Moderator Ooops I guess I was wrong.... well I never enter them anyway!The entire purpose of this is so that all of the intermediate waypoints will be automatically inserted into the flightplan, Ryan.On some routes, this can be up to ten to fifteen waypoints! It would be silly to enter each one individually... :( Fr. Bill AOPA Member: 07141481 AARP Member: 3209010556 Avsim Board of Directors | Avsim Forums Moderator
