Airbus A321Neo… Can’t delete waypoints… Please Help!

Post by PLlavi01 » Tue Aug 06, 2024 3:05 am

Hello,

I purchased the air[lane from SimMarket and was planning a flight but I can’t remove some weird waypoints that are nowhere near where I’m flying to. I tried pressing the CLR then pressing the key next to the one I want to remove but nothing happens. There is no DEL button in the MCDU. How do I remove them. Please help!

Regards,
PLlavi01

If you're still having issues, reply with your Departure and Arrival airports. I'll enter them into Simbrief and see what flightplan it shows.

OR

I recommend follow something similar to this when you create your flightplan in Simbrief.

1. Create a new flight. For example, KDEN Denver to KSEA Seattle.
2. Input the Depart and Arrive fields.
3. Select Aircraft Type. For example, the A21N Airbus A321neo.
4. Choose a Variant or Airframe if you have one saved or leave it as Default.
5. You entire flightplan will populate. You can choose alternate routes in the Suggested routes section. For example, DDRTH1 DDRTH IDA PDT CHINS5
6. Generate your flightplan.
7. Open Navigraph Charts and Import your Simbrief Flightplan.
8. Choose your Arrival. For example, Runway 16R Arrival CHINS5 Transition PDT Approach ILS RWY 16R Transition PAE
9. Under your Destination tab, find the Approach, for example ILS RWY 16R, and click the 3 . . . button. Click 'Open Chart Overlay'. You will now see the approach chart with all the waypoints.
10. In your aircraft tablet, sync your Simbrief Flightplan with the aircraft.
11. In your aircraft's MCDU, you will need to complete filling out data in the INIT page, such as the CO RTE, CI, and CRZ FL. In the F-PLN page, Click the LSK button next to your arrival airport and fill out the arrival information from your Simbrief flightplan.
- Notice that the synced flightplan will only populate the arrival, for example CHINS5, but not the approach, for example ILS RWY 16R.
- Notice If you attempt to delete any waypoint in the approach or the arrival, the MCDU will delete the ENTIRE approach or arrival, not just ONE waypoint.
- If you prefer to have the ability to delete each and every waypoint individually, you must enter each waypoint individually without choosing an arrival or approach. You can look at your route in Charts to know which waypoints to enter.
