Problem with airways in G1000 Nxi

[rwilsonlj]

I attempted a flight from KIPL to KLAX using the Nxi in the C208. Origin- KIPL, Dest-KLAX. My first enroute waypoint was IPL (VOR). I had IPL highlighted on the G1000 flight plan then went to "MENU" then "LOAD AIRWAYS" and attempted to enter the V458 airway. The Nxi showed no airways available. I was able to enter the airway in Navigraph Charts from IPL so I assume Navigraph is not at fault. Any ideas what might be afoot? The Github forum for the Nxi said to use AVSIM to report bugs. Not sure if this is correct but I will start here.

I think you have to highlight the empty line below IPL and load it.

Thanx for the reply Ryan. I still have MSFS 2020 open and tried that. No Joy.

What if you press PROC instead of menu?  I'm not at the sim I can't recall which button it is.

Aside from that use their Discord channel for support:

After entering IPL (pick the IPL in SW US) you do want to highlight the line below IPL as Ryan suggested above, then when you go to Menu and Load Airways if it says None, turn the small center FMS knob to get airway options, one of which is V458.

Ryan and ark, I got the same info from Matt at WT and it works fine. I was using the incorrect IPL. (DUH!). Anyway, thanks for the help. Happy flying!
