if you have fewer than 10 waypoints stored in the data cart they will be loaded as waypoints 11-20. Have you checked BUT 11 for your waypoint?

Strange, I've tested your datafile/mission and it worked fine as a single player mission and after joining the Growling Sidewinder Open Conflict Server (Caucasus) using a Beslan M2K slot.

Growling Sidewinder before loading datacartridge - HSI distances are zero and Kneeboard WPT's are empty.

Growling Sidewinder after loading datacartridge -

• Kneeboard lists 3x WPT's 11 (Beslan), 12 (Kutaisi) and 13 (Turning Point).
• DEST 12 selects WPT 12 Kutaisi: the HSI shows the expected bearing (223°M ) and distance (113.8 NM) to Kutaisi

All I did was insert the datacartridge, wait for the MIP light to stop blinking and then the cartridge to "self-eject" after another 5 seconds or so.

Should I make a video or are you good with using the Mirage's DTC in single player ?

This is my datacartridge folder structure for the Mirage.

Tested DCS Open Beta 2.7.18.30765

Is there a Manual how to use the Data Cartridge. It would be nice to have airfield loaded f.e. Caucasus

The module manual covers the data cartridge, section 19-6 page 275.

Yes, the data cartridge is described on pages 276 - 277 of the current DCS M-2000C manual found in
• "DCS World\Mods\Aircraft\M-2000C\Doc\DCS M-2000C Flight Manual EN.pdf"

A data cartridge can be of 2 formats:
• A .miz mission file with a single Mirage 2000C inside it, programmed with the desired flight plan/waypoints.
• A .dtc data cartridge file in lua (lua is a programming language used by DCS) consisting of a few configuration variables and an array containing the flight plan.

Thanks for quick answer. I have done the mistake by only using Chuck's guide.

M2000C is my favorite plane. 

I have flown Viggen IRL but  it can't compete with The Baguette...:]
