Here is a odd thing. I did the tutorial flight tonight KDSM to KORD. I set up the plan using FSNavigator for the same parameters that the manual has for the RC3 plan, and set up RC3 per the manual. When I took off I flew the runway heading like I was told, but I was never given any instructions to change heading. I got altitude changes, and was handed off to center. Eventually, I think about the 35 mile mark ATC asked me why I wasn't on the airway and gave me a heading. Wierd.I then loaded the RC3 KDSM-KORD tutorial. Everything was the same until takeoff, when I was then vectored like I should have been. Anybody know why this happened? Anybody else had something like this happen? :-hmmm

sounds like you either click flexible sid, or notams on your departure airport.

Nope, I checked that. I set it up like the tutorial. I'm going to fly another tonight and do it the same way to see what happens.

Well, it worked fine last night. Took off and was vectored just like the canned tutorial. I must have done something wrong the other night, but d@mned if I know what. Oh well, doesn't matter. Flew the 2nd tutorial flight with no problems, other than the landing after selecting "short final" was kind of ugly. :-hah Got some dirty looks from the passengers when they were leaving the plane. :-lol

careful what you ask for. recommend not asking for a short final until you are below the glideslope

I started out below like the tutorial said, but I didn't desend fast enough, so I wound up back above it on final by quite a bit. Thank God for the Fokker's speed brakes. :-lol
