March 10, 20215 yr Commercial Member The loop is a holding pattern. In this case, you enter the holding pattern and if cleared for the approach, just fly it once to get aligned on final. Not sure what happened, but being told "frequency change approved" shouldn't happen at a controlled airport, unless you cancel IFR. The display of the current waypoint will not normally affect ATC. Usually, pressing the "Validate" button will get it back in sync, but flying a holding pattern almost always messes it up. The plane's autopilot should be able to fly it, but in this case, MSFS didn't have it, so you would have had to fly it manually or use the heading setting on the autopilot to fly it. Dave
