Flightplan Approach errors

[acroduster 0]

Hi Dave:

There seems to be a mathamatical problem when adding a approach to a flight plan.

When there is a HOLD or RACETTRACK in the approach,  the hold courses are not correctly computed.

For instance, for KFOK, RNAV (GPS) RWY 24,  the computed hold courses are 326 (inbound) and 146(outbound)... they should be 236 and 056.

Can verify by entering this flight plan:

KFRG DPK KFOK  app rwy ils rwy 24. 

I believe this error is across the board for all hold racetrack patterns. Needless to say tracking the computed courses send you into never, never land!

Glenn,

Thanks for the report.

The courses 326 and 146 are from MATTY to the end of the outbound Turn and from the beginning Inbound turn to the ending inbound turn.

I've changed the display so these values don't show in the flight plan and instead the holding pattern inbound and outbound courses are displayed.
