Hi McCartney95,

Yes, you can load a FS Flightplan into the FMC of the CS757.

I believe CS757 uses the same CS767's Honeywell Pegasus FMC http://www.honeywell.com/sites/aero/Flight_Management_Systems3_C1997B88E-FCF9-72... , so:

1) Go to FS FLIGHTS > FLIGHT PLANNER, create a new flight plan or load a presaved one;

2) Click the following buttons:

a) CDU Icon to open the FMC window;

b) RTE (Route);

c) Request
    < Send (L3)
;

d) FLT SIM FPLS (R6);

e) Choose desired FP, using NEXT PAGE and PREV PAGE buttons;

f) ACTIVATE (R6);

g) EXEC (Red light ON > OFF);

That is all. I hope this help you.

Greetings,

Pinatubo.

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

I think I have figured it out. I made changes to security settings in the navigation and routes folders by right clicking on the folders, left clicking properties and clicking on the security tab and editing what some of the users can do within the folders. Some of the addons I use start FSX automaticly so there is no chance that I know of to run it as adminstrator.

Can someone tell me if our FMC is a "Pegasus" & if it has all the options as the 767 another company? I recently bought a another company and the tuturial is quite extensive.It would be nice if they were both the same as we here have a better tuturial & be able to apply what I learn here a use the knowledge for the another company.

The FMC in the Captain Sim 757 and 767 works the same as the one in the "others" 767. I have done the "others" 767 tutorial with the CS767 with minor differences. I guess you can do the tutorial in a 757. Just be aware that there will be bigger differences because the tutorial is for a 767 and not a 757.

KABQ not in database?
Reply #172 - Oct 17th, 2010 at 4:31pm

Try to set up a flight from KORD to KABQ. entering KABQ and response from FMC is "not in data base" If I load a plan from FSX, KORD shows up as departure point, all the waypoints and vors show up, but arrival airport, KABQ is blank. If I use FSX Flightplanner, KABQ shows up
wHAT'S UP WITH THAT?

I'm using the latest AIRAC from Navigraph (1010) and my FMS recognizes KABQ.

Which Navigation data are you using? The one that comes with the 757? You can check this by looking on the IDENT page on the FMS, under the word ACTIVE (mine shows this: SEP23OCT20/10).

Yes, that is what it was.  I updated my FMC using Navgraph and KABQ shows up now.

Thanks,

FMC help required
Reply #175 - Oct 18th, 2010 at 9:37am

Just started trying to program the FMC on my 757 and having some basic problems. When i set the departure and arrival airports, i can select the runway but SIDs/Stars are not available. Should they appear as an option or do you have to imput them manually?
Also how do you imput alt and speed for the different legs of the flight?

Thanks

Gary

Hi deepblue.

Have you tried this tutorial: 757-200 FMC Tutorial?
If you try out the tutorial it will help you with programming the FMC (including SIDs and STARs). If you are still having a problem after that (which ii is possible that that is already the case), then let us know and we will try to help you more.

Tried to folllow the tutorial and hit a few problems.
Selected departure rwy ok and got a list of SIDs (didnt appear previously for me) Selected arrival STAR and saved it. Went to step through the legs and there was only 3 with nothing else! Definately no STARS.
Thought i'd continue anyway and see how i got on. Went through weight/thrust/V etc and all seemed good.
Take off went ok but then couldnt select VNAV. Looked back in the CDU and it says "perf/vnav unavailable". Finally aircraft reached 10000 and started porpoising between about 9000 and 11000 then suddenly just dived to the ground.
Am i missing something here, should i have any patches installed etc.
Any help greatfully accepted as i'm a tad frustrated at the moment

Thanks

Found out why the VNAV wasn't working, i hadn't added a cost index (still no idea what that is) It still won't add any stars info though?
Anyone want to help?
