July 26, 2025Jul 26 Can anyone help me understand three things: 1. When you click NAV after takeoff, unless the NAV line is directly in front of you, the aircraft doesn't pick up on the line, so you have to turn to a heading of within the region of) of the NAV line, for LNAV to pick up. Is there a workaround here? 2. I keep getting a warning sign saying 'Cabin Altitude' - How do I correct this? What should the pressure be set to exactly? 3. After setting up a flight plan on the MSFS home page, clicking Flight Plan on the FMC activates the flight plan, but it always places a discontinuity in there, and sometimes in (farther afield locations), adds a little holding circle. Is there a way to get around this happening? Genuinely loving this aircraft, but need some advice on the above. Thanks so much.

Then click on the purple waypoint, likely the same, and it will got direct from your current location. Otherwise you have to use HDG to get on the course line then switch to NAV. 2. Make sure both bleed are in HP/LP (should be the default.) 3. I use Simbrief so not sure. But to remove discontinuities, just click on the waypoint below (as in #1) and drop it on the discontinuity. Love this plane as well. So fun! EddieKABQ

It just means that your last fix is not connecting to an initial approach fix and then the aircraft will draw its own. But you have to delete it for the descent calculation to work properly. And since ATC would vector you anyway what does it matter what the approach looks like? Just fly as if vectored once you reach 25nm from the field.
