"Andrew Sarangan" wrote in message . 158... I just tried this on DUATs with the route block empty and it accepted the flight plan. However, it appears to have automatically inserted the lat/lon co-ordinates of the airport in the route block. The route is still zero distance. It's probably not actually zero. Lat/lon coordinates are entered in flight plans only to the nearest minute, fixes stored in the computer are entered at a higher accuracy. Using the Route Readout function of ARTCC radar data processing, which draws out the route on the scope, you can see the little wiggle caused by a route like ..DDMM/DDMM..VOR.. , where DDMM/DDMM represents the coordinates of the VOR. |
