As I understand the Flight Manual the LAT/LONG coordinates are supposed to be in the following format; N33 30.9 W115 56.6=N33309W115566 or to state another way NxxxxxWxxxxxx Am I undersatanding the directions correctly, anyone with advice? I appreciate your time and help. I am running the PMDG in FS9.................

No luck. No problem with the Super 80, PSS 777 or LevelD, but the PMDG dosen't accept any of the tradtional inputs??????

From the PMDG 737 FMC manual:

The proper format for entering a Latitude/Longitude waypoint into the scratchpad is as follows:
NXXXXX/EXXXXXX
SXXXXX/WXXXXXX

Thanks for taking the time Mike. I've tried every conceivable format! Non take, I get the error mesage; "not in database". I am writing PMDG now. My guess is that they will have me un/re-install. Thanks again
