So each time ATC gives you a shortcut to another FIX, you have to change to HDG SEL - modify the FMC leg - change back to LNAV? Really? However, I tried to start the Tutorial from the beginning (COLD & DARK). During the flight legs, I had no issues to perform all kind of route modifications while remaining in LNAV mode. Everything works as anticipated. So for me, the behavior is somehow related to the use of the "saved flight" feature (or saved panel state). I do not know, if this is the case in general or with the specific saved flights included with the installation. I'll find out. Now enjoying the approach to Innsbruck

Hm. Ok. Thanks for your suggestions. Unfortunately, I have flown Tutorial #1 more than once. As I wrote, I'm just starting with #2 - where I repeated the 1st part (until push-back) several times in oder to get comfortable with the flows. I thought, the saved flights would allow me to continue exactly where I left off. Everything works fine and in the same way as described. Only when trying to follow the Advanced FMC Route Modification examples, the FMC does not accept those entries. None of them. I asked the question in order to find out, if I did something wrong - or - if the saved flight feature could lead to such a behavior. Thanks Xaver

Hello, during the flight from Tutorial 2, I am not able to do any FMC route modifications as outlined in the manual page 94ff. For instance: Trying to line select the second waypoint (TESGA) on the LEG page in order to make a shortcut by copying on top of the currently active waypoint doesn't lead any change. No error, No invalid entry, etc. The ACT RTE does not change to MOD RTE, where I can execute the modifications. Maybe there is one difference about my approach doing the tutorial. I started from a saved flight included for the second tutorial "PMDG....before pushback". At the second attempt, I additionally loaded the according panel state within the FMC in addition to the saved flight. No change. Next time, I will do the tutorial from the beginning (which takes very long for me as a beginner) in order to check, if the problems remain. BTW.: Prepar3D 3.1 (same behaviour with 2.x) - latest Installers from PMDG - fully updated. Any ideas? Thanks & BR Xaver Slater
