Does anyone know how the FMC can be programmed in advance of arrival to fly a specific heading from an airport or vor?
e.g. LOXIT DUXBY SFO .. then turn hdg 140
This is a standard approach on the Golden gate 5 arrival, ATC directing traffic over the airport, then to 140 with a descent to 4000. During this 140 heading one is usually turned due east and then brought around to intercept runway 28L. Golden gate 6 has changed this STAR, but I'd like to know how the FMC could be instructed to do this. I suspect the answer may be that it can't.
