Title: Re: Changing FMS Runway Selection
Post by Longhornmaniac8 on Apr 14th, 2008 at 3:15pm
Hey Bob,

I wouldn't hate that at all. It adds to the realism!

Usually, actually, I do. However, I suppose I'm still a little worried that I'm going to have to make a guess as to which runway I'm landing on when I'm at that final waypoint, simply because I'm going to be too far out to contact the tower. Unfortunately, I'm not going to be able to test it out for a couple weeks, and that's really the only way to figure out for sure. I suppose if I contact the ATIS a good ways out, I should have enough time...

Thanks Bob, I appreciate it!

Cameron

Edit: I suppose what I'm really asking is how to make sure I have an easily interchangeable plan in my FMS. I more or less understand how a STAR works, I'm just not sure how (if at all) to change the ILS runway once I've begun the STAR. Do you know if this can even be done?

Thanks again, and I'll get back to you when I have a chance to test it out.
