Just pointing out that it's done differently in the plane the thread is about. 😉 Handflying any LNAV procedure in the PMDG is less than comfortable these days because of the way the lateral guidance fluctuates. It's quite a separation from reality. The person I replied to clearly understood what I was saying, as apparently did you, so I don’t quite understand the need for the elaborate “correction”. But that’s fine.

But that’s fine. Dunno, you seemed to suggest that it's correct that the PMDG flies an arc as a series of straight segments but "that's ok, that's exactly how you fly a DME arc in real life.". It's... not. I'm also not sure what seemed "elaborate" about my correction. But cool, as long as we're all on the same page now that the PMDG definitely doesn't behave correctly in LNAV. It's a great addon in almost all respects, and sure, for a sub-$100 game allowances can certainly be made... But this is really something you should hope for them to improve.
