rcv4 questions

[lotus 0]

will rcv4 give the possibility to follow a sid and a star with altitude restrictions??????????is it possible that will it have a database with many sid and star (adjoustable with possibility to add other sids and stars)???because all add-ons aircrafts have a FMC that give this possibility and it would be terrific that rcv4 will make this too!!!!!!!!!thanks

fsbuild 2, for example, gives flightplans with sid and stars with altitude restrictions, and many FMC (f.e. PSS A320, A330 and A340)....bye

i have fsbuild, i'll check it out.but i don't think it would be normal, to make a flight plan with a star as a part of it. how do you know what runway you are going to get at the arrival airport. whether it is a 1 hour flight or a 6 hour flight, the runway of choice may change several times, which would affect the star, which would affect the flight planjd

the last version of fsuipc (3.135) gives the possibility on fs2004 to know what runway is in use on destination airport and however it would be wonderfull if it would be possible choose the star during the approach....do you think so?????????rcv4 could be more flexible than other version with possibility to change approach and star....am I dreaming????bye
