So I am loving my PMDG 737NGX Aircraft.... I've only been flying it for a couple of weeks but still the experience is MOST amazing. So I mainly just do direct flights airport to airport, but I wanted to start doing more realistic high altitude navigation. I've tried on several occasions to use the jet routes on the En Route Charts in nDAC (For example, flying between KABQ and KDEN (Short Flight I know) I could either use J13 or J15, but the FMC says there not on in the database. I am using the current navigation data, as provided by Navigraph for my PMDG products and I do keep all my charts updated (I spend a lot of money on credits to do so), but still I can seem to get the routes accepted in the FMC. I've never had problems using jet routes on my PMDG 747 or MD-11.
Any thoughts?
On a separate but related note, is the "Gate" info on the POS screen of the FMC just for looks or can it actually be used. Last night I was parked at B23 doing passenger loading and pre-flight setup, but when I put in the gate it also says "not in database".
Thanks!
