FMC inserts vectors and (420) in the middle of my route.

Recommended Posts

I put mballew's plan (KJFK RBV J230 SAAME J6 LIT FEWWW SEEVR1 KDFW) into FSbuild ... it looked ok.

 

And the resulting CO RTE loaded ok in 737NG FMC.

 

Hmmm, I will re-install the 737. Maybe it could be my navdata?

I have Navigraph Navdata Cycle 1503 for PMDG and FSbuild.

 

If you want to check the route that FSbuild did (to check for accuracy) I could post a screenshot.


I managed to cut and paste the FSBuild log for a screenshot (hope it is readable):

I got the route off of FlightAware, and was entering it myself (Did not download it). When I go to the RTE page, after I have plugged in my departure, I start to add the waypoints, and as soon as I put in J230 (before I plug in SAAME), a DCT 420 and DCT VECTORS appear. I continue to type in my route BEFORE the directs, and still, about half of the route ends up after it (on the rte page). I program my arrival without any problems, but I cannot delete the two anomalies. Further more, after testing, I cannot bypass it or select a direct on the legs page, until AFTER I have passed both of those points.

Almost sounds like your Nav Data might be corrupt. Are you using current Navigraph or Aerosoft AIRACS? If so, might want to reinstall the database.
