Hi,
I have just installed the 757 and I have two strange problems:

- on the FMC I can only see the waypoints in co-ordinates format instead of their names,

- I get the FMC message "UNABLE CRUISE ALTITUDE" even if I am well below the max permitted altitude 

Do you have any suggestions?

Thanks
Lorenzo

I couldn't clear it, it came back disengaged VNAV and revert to SPD...it's weird. Also the coordinates instead of the waypoints are curious.

Since I updated to version 4.4 I have two problems:

1: Approaching EHAM rwy 27, I wanted to delete the transition because I was being vectored to the runway, after selecting the second to last waypoint before the runway and entering that one as the first waypoint to fly to, all waypoints disapeared, the only thing left on the legs page was vectors

2: after taking off GCLP, when activating the AP I allways fly the plane in heading mode because the DME Arc is not in the STAR, as soon as I've flown the ac to the first waypoint after the DME Arc I want to switch to LNAV (Which is allready armed on the runway), but as soon as I want to do that the aircraft turns 180 degrees and heads back to the previous waypoint which isn't on the legs page anymore.
I found out that switching to LNAV right before a waypoint works fine, but when, say, flying halfway inbetween two waypoints it allways turns back to the previous one.

Hope someone can help me out here, because this kind of behaviour is no fun when flying online, ATC doesn't like ac making 360's halfway down a SID  

P.S. I've read the FMS manual but cannot find how to enter DME Arc fixes, it only describes how DME Arc fixes are presented in the FMC but not how they can be entered!

Hello
I'm having trouble with executing an Dme Arc SID/STAR.
When i choose an STAR (for example ILS 04L VEVAR5R trans NERAS LFMN airport) the aircraft does not follow the arc route to the runway. The dme distances shows in the FMC legs page but on the ND, on the ND they appears on really strange positions and not even close to the arc positions. I'm wondering if you have to fly the arc manually with heading or is there's something i've missed in the FMC programming??
I hope you understand what i mean

For some reason i cant seem to add fuel weight or reserves fuel i get an invalid key message? Can any help with this? Also, I cant seem to find the way to fly this plane on auto pilot using the navigation hold. It will fly with auto pilot but i cant change course heading or FL, that i have to do manually? Help!! thank you!

Yes I used this tutorial but I still get error messages when I Try to put in fuel weight and reserves. I can activate the LNAV but not the VNAV? Why?

Once a flight plan has been manually entered into the FMC and stepped through for discos etis is there anyway to save the flight plan for later recall for future flights brtween the same origin and destination?

Thank you

Since your reply I have flow 6 flights in CS products. Two routes have been saved and on four I have received the message "ROUTE SAVE FAILURE" which makes no sense to me since I have flown them all, they are from flightaware, The saved routes included departure runway, SID, route, STAR and approach to landing runway. The failures include just the route but I have also tried them them with runways, SIDS, STARS but I still received the same message. I have tried completed OH panel and just the 3 IRS in the Nav position. The plane and FMC ready for takeoff. THe FMC completed thru POS INIT, and RTE, and stepped thru the legs looking for discos, crz alt and no crz altitude. I have tried the plane in every conceivable configuration I can think of. I have even tried the 767, I still get "ROUTE SAVE FAILURE". Any ideas? I can send a route if you would like to try it.

Thank you
