Hi,I'm using the latest AIRAC from navigraph (1108), I tried to enter the following flight plan from FAJS to FIMP:EXOBI UQ3 ORNAD UG653 SDG UA401 SOBAT when I get to the UG653 jetway after the fix ORNAD I get an error in the FMC "invalid entry" while in the file wpnavrte.txt I clearly have the jetway:

UG653 001 WHV -22.477361 17.470556UG653 002 MOKAK -22.700000 18.343056UG653 003 ANTOR -23.052222 20.000000UG653 005 KGV -23.679714 22.819886UG653 006 SINKI -24.268997 24.685158UG653 007 GBV -24.597714 25.832456UG653 008 ETOSA -24.714000 26.053606UG653 010 NESEK -25.019783 26.616325UG653 011 HBV -25.675833 27.832500UG653 012 WIV -25.829559 29.194836UG653 013 CL -26.091944 30.096389UG653 014 GIDEL -26.027778 30.788889UG653 015 ORNAD -25.916667 31.966667UG653 016 VMA -25.868806 32.604333UG653 017 NAMKU -25.586667 34.086667UG653 018 APLAR -25.111389 36.543056UG653 019 SUNIR -24.301667 40.000000UG653 020 VSQ -23.389361 43.722306UG653 022 LAKRA -22.589722 48.000000UG653 023 NANTA -21.833334 51.500000UG653 024 GERAG -21.515833 52.920278UG653 025 SDG -20.884834 55.509806

Just make "direct to" with all waypoints on that part of route. Lj. Prodanovic
Of course I can "just" do that, whats your point?I got these routes from Vroute by the way...Currently flying the route with iFly - had no problem.

Ido, I know this is an old post you started in August 2011, but did anyone find the solution to this problem yet? I had the same issue, 747-400/-8 and LVL-D 767 worked fine, only NGX did not accept UG653 after ORNAD. Looking at Navigraph's wpnavrte.txt file in the PMDG Navdata folder, i saw the UG653 route, starting at WHV and ending at SDG, was not numbered sequential. (UG653 001 WHV, UG653 002 MOKAK, UG653 003 ANTOR and then UG653 005 KGV etc) So I changed the numbering to be sequential, using notepad, and now it seems the problem is solved. Don't know why only the NGX FMC behave this way.Johann
