>loaded the .pln in rc? post your .pln file hereHe already has, jd - see message #7. I suspect that the departure runway problem he had was with the PMDG FMC and not RC - I had the same problem with the FMC when I flew the plan.PP

The .pln was loaded into RC.The runway issue is with the PMDG FMC. However, I mentioned it because I thought it may be relevant in that RC knows the runway exists and uses the plan whereas the FMC uses the same plan minus the departure runway.Andy b
