How do you program to an Alternate airport

The weather was fine at IAD today.  I don't use ASN, yet.  I use Opus and find it to be pretty realistic.  I also use PFPX.

 

Thanks again Kyle, sorry for all the newbie questions.  Learning a lot and loving it.  PMDG is outstanding.

It was a lot colder than I thought it would be. It's been a little warm for this time of year over the last few days. Still, not bad.

You're welcome.

In regards to this topic I am also wondering how to go direct to an airport if it is the destination as it isn't a selectable point on the legs page. For instance if I'm on a STAR to an airport that isn't as busy as normal that day and ATC offers a shortcut "cleared direct XYZ airport" how can i program direct to destination?

You would just put WXYZ in the scratch pad and then insert in into line 1 of the LEGS page.

 

You'd probably put an approach in for a back-up. There'd still be a disco, so it'd read something like

 

WXYZ

-disco-

FF16L

RWY16L

etc.

 

That's what I'd do, anyway.

The topic started by Joe is very specific & clear. It's a good question and no one answered as it should.

I would also like to know the correct procedure!

 

Any RW pilot over there?
