heloguy Posted November 10, 2017 Posted November 10, 2017 Has anyone been able to fly an RNAV approach with the 430? In the real 430, you can select an approach by pressing the PROC button, and then select an airfield, then the approach. After you select the approach, it loads into the flight plan. I can't seem to get the sim to operate that way. I'm trying on the Nevada map in the cold start quick mission. The 430 in the sim doesn't seem to let me change airfields after pressing the PROC button, and select approach. It will only show the approaches for Mc Carran (and the names for those approaches don't seem right either). If I press the CLR button to try and get to the airfield selection portion, it doesn't let me select an approach for the new airfield (I've been trying to use Laughlin, ICAO ID KIFP). i9 12900k @ 4.9ghz, 64gb RAM Nvidia RTX 3090 Windows 11 x64 Pimax Crystal VP Force Rhino w/RS F16GRH, Virpil TCS Rotor Plus AH-64 Collective, BRD F1 Pedals, WH Throttle, FSSB R3 w/WH Grip, PointCTRL v2
gospadin Posted November 10, 2017 Posted November 10, 2017 Will test tonight. Normally proc defaults to showing you approaches for the last waypoint in your flight plan (or current direct-to destination) but if you can't change that, that's a bug. 1 My liveries, mods, and missions for DCS:World M-2000C English Cockpit | Extra Beacons Mod | Nav Kneeboard | Community A-4E
gospadin Posted November 11, 2017 Posted November 11, 2017 Okay. Without a destination airport or flight plan, the behavior of the NS430 and the GNS430 is quite different and won't let you select the airport from the WPTapt page. I filed a sighting with the expectations. My liveries, mods, and missions for DCS:World M-2000C English Cockpit | Extra Beacons Mod | Nav Kneeboard | Community A-4E
Shrike88 Posted July 26, 2018 Posted July 26, 2018 Okay.

I filed a sighting with the expectations. Even then only a few airports actually Have IAP available. On the caucuses the oldest map only 5 or so airports have procedures in the database. Sochi for example has no Instrument approach procedures nor arrivals as it currently has IRL.
