Reset FMC for next flight

[Christian S 1]

I was thinking of doing some airport hopping, but the FMC seems locked in approach mode after landing. If I press "INIT REF" all I do is get to the approach page, VNAV won't work etc. I tried putting my next leg into ROUTE 2 and activating it, but that didn't help either.

I've tried browsing through FCOM's too, but couldn't find anything. If anyone can help me and tell me where to find this information in the manuals I would really appreciate it

Open route page 1 and start entering DEPT and DEST airports ...

That's what I tried (and what I've done thousands of times in the NGX), but I swear it didn't work. But that was about an hour ago and I had just left the runway. Is there some location/time limit restriction on setting up a new flight?

But thanks a lot anyway
