Flight Map problem parsing route
Posted: Fri Apr 09, 2021 7:49 am
The flight map had a problem parsing my route on the flight today. A long section from SPY to ELDAK was not plotted and the map drew a straight line instead. Another waypoint was missed earlier in the flight (51N140W). I used the current AIRAC to plan the route with Simbrief. The route is as follows:
BESSA1 ENI DCT BOXER DCT FULMR DCT FASEL DCT 51N140W/N0502F320 54N150W 55N160W DCT CDB J623 BILBE/N0494F340 J623 SPY G469 NYMPH/K0939F350 R220 NUZAN/N0507F350 R220 NRKEY/N0506F360 R220 NUBDA/N0508F370 R220 NODAN/N0506F360 R217 ASTER Y514 SDE Y512 ELDAK/N0506F380 Y512 GTC Y142 SAMON Y14 SUGNO Y16 SAPRA G585 GUKDO GUKD1E
It looks as if the map got confused by the altitude and speed changes attached to the waypoints. Should we delete those from the flight plans inserted in GCP?
