767 FMC

[Michael Natale]

I am trying to import flight plans from Simroute for the LevelD 767. I have no problem saving flight plans I create within the FMC itself, but I cannot seem to import ones from simroutes( using the CO Route LSK). Alot of the waypoints I am trying to manually enter by name are not recognized by the FMC, hence the reason for trying imported routes from simroutes. Non domestic routes seem to be the problem e.g I am making my first trip to EGLL from KORD and I cannot get the waypoints out of KORD into the FMC the Lat/Long for the NATs are not a problem. Anyone else have this problem? If so would you kindly educate me with your fix when you get a chance.

Thanks

Simroutes plans do not equate well with the LVLD for me either I have just given up. I use the FSCommander for all my flights. It makes a very good navigator whom I can depend on. It does LVLD flights .rte's very well. Make sure the NAVDATA is updated for your LVLD, since it is up-to-date I have had no problem of any waypoints. You may already but Navigraph, inexpensive Pay ware, will update the LVLD.

As always, thank you Wayne I'll check it out. I know I have the most recent version of the 767 from Level D so, I'll follow up like you suggest.

I was nt familiar with NAVIGRAPH until reading your posting. I have just updated all my FMC/AIRAC's. I will get a chance to try this out tonight. Thanks
