how many characters?

Featured Replies

How many characters is the maximum that can be used in a co route ref eg egllkjfk 8 characters or can you use more eg egllkjfk01t

As I've had a few problems finding routes that I know are there.

I am aware of the various formats ie .pln,.rte,rt2

thanks

Is this a 777 question? There are subtle differences between products. However, a default is ICAOICAO and you can add suffix such as ICAOICAO001. In certain cases, you don't need to follow this convention, depends on product.

Yea 777 but have had issues with md11 as well

Both aircraft will "filter" the list of available coroutes based on the values for origin and/or destination. For example, if the fields are empty then all coroutes are visible but if you put in KIAH for origin then only coroutes originating at Houston Bush are displayed. This is the type of information that is available in the introduction documents for the product. Anyway, I always stick to the ICAOICAO format cause I'm lazy.

PFPX is exporting ICAOICAO01 as the co-route in most cases.

Also .rte instead of .rt2 for the 777 and NGX.

 

I think there's still a very strange bug where 777 doesn't like routes with EHAM and EHRD as the origin :P Seems it likes the Netherlands too much to leave. I havn't tried with EHEH or other Netherland airports yet, might effect all EH airports or maybe just the 2 in the N/S Hollands.

 

 

For the weather you need to do that specific activesky winds aloft format in notepad and save to the right folder as ICAOICAO.wx (not .wx.txt).

I do think there would be a max character limit, but you'd at least have 11 (ICAOICAO001 is possible)
