Buffalo FSS. Every time I try, they say it's not in their computer. I
can't do it in DUATS either.


Fixes are filed regularly that aren't stored in some facility's computer.
Fixes can be filed that don't even exist, you just have to know how to
satisfy the computer.



"Invalid route element identifier CYRIL
OLAB quickpath command did not finish successfully
Parameter 9: 'V2 KONDO ART CYRIL' is invalid"


CYRIL is not stored so the computer doesn't know where to go after ART. You
just need to file something between ART and CYRIL that the computer can
process. The simplest would be the coordinates of CYRIL. File 'V2 KONDO
ART 4458/7518 CYRIL' next time. The computer then has something after ART
it can work with and it doesn't care what comes after that.
