June 11, 200223 yr I am having problem with the direct mode in the GPS. I enter the airport and acivate the Direct mode. I see the line toward to airport, but the plane goes to a heading of 360. The autopilot is on, nav function depressed and in the GPS mode. What is wrong?David AlbrightFAA Flight dispatcherSingle and Mult-engine rated pilot500 hours Real PIC2000 hours Sim PICSim Test Pilot

June 11, 200223 yr Hi Chris,3. Use NAV instead of HDG. Location: Vleuten, The Netherlands, 17.3dme SPL 108.40 | Simulator: FS2024 System: AMD 7800X3D - Gigabyte X670 - RTX 4090 - 64GB DDR5 - 2 x 2TB SSD - 32" 1440p Display - Windows 11 Pro
June 11, 200223 yr NAV is for following FS flightplans,HDG for following the Direct-to setting of the GPS! Bert
