    Hi,
    unfortunately I still have the route bug with the new build. Went back to 382.


    Best regards,
    Stefan.

    I did some flights with the latest builds installed. My general impression is a very smooth operation.

    CDU : problem with disappearing runway centreline when activating route, is solved.
    The drawing accuraty of magenta route is a lot smoother and also without interruptions.

    Unfortunately all other reported bugs by me and other members are still there. Also on B744 approach page the flap 25 / 30 indications are not visual. Adding a STAR in route or after activation, still make a mess of the route and also a go direct to a X waypoint makes returning the aircraft to the beginning.

    Ciao
    Michel

    New CDU build test

    Hi All,

    I just installed the latest version CDU and made a short flight from EDDM to LOWI. I saw that the CDU didn't display the selected RWY at the departure airport and furthermore I seem to be unable to load my existing flightplans into the CDU. It does load the Departure and the Arrival airports but it doesn't load the waypoints in between. I spotted this problem already in an earlier release but reverting back to version 380 Solves this problem. The latest revisions of the CDU have a different way to load flightplans I saw.
    Maybe I'm doing something wrong here?

    I didn't see any other major issues in this release however.

    Regards,

    Theo Ouwersloot

    Hi,

    there are new intermediate builds available again. I did a quick test flight and everything was working as it should (no route/runway bug).


    Have fun!

    Hi Stefan
    Does that mean you don't have any problems with the route going crazy when selecting STARS during flight or go direct to problems ?
    As Enrico thinks it has something to do with the Navigraph data.

    Well,

    I only could do one flight so far, and during that the FMC worked fine, including the selection of a takeoff- and landing-runway and inserting new waypoints during flight. I am using the latest Navigraph navdata cycle.

    EDIT:
    What actually did happen is that after altering the route inflight, it shortly disappeared, but then was displayed as it should (white dashed line until "EXEC").



    The only problem I have is that several Navaids are displayed twice (as the "KBO"-VOR at EDDK), but this actually seems to be a Navigraph-issue, as it also appears outside of Project Magenta (also in FlightsimCommander, for example).

    I´ll report as soon as I get time to do another flight.
