All didnot go well while on the STAR. As the plane was heading in the general direction of the airport it was supposed to turn right, go straight for several miles then turn left and head for the transition. At the first waypoint instead of turning right the plane did not change heading continuing straight on. I had to disengage LNAV and make the turns myself.  It landed okay but something was messed up with the STAR. I think I'll fly in the United States, Europe, and Asia.

Yesterday I did the same flight.
Everything went well till about after TUC ( VOR Tunis Cartage ).
On the CDU I saw a descent of 10.000 ft in 8 miles...
So just before the STAR ( ATLE1R) I manually did a turn left , flew 5 minutes straight on and then made a turn right.

I was hoping the aircraft would catch up with the next waypoint , but the aircraft tried heading back to Tunis ( north, while Monastir was in fact south-west).
No possibility to delete waypoints before the STAR and the CTR stayed on the waypoint just after TUC.

I manually flew the STAR ( ATLE1R ) till the LOC casptured the signal.
Then the App was very easy and the aircraft made a pefect landing.
