JarrodR5 Posted December 29, 2024 Posted December 29, 2024 Hello Folks, Currently I've been using the page indecate waypoint information in MFD (not CDU) to select waypoint. But everytime I hit 'DIR' for the selected waypoint the system will automatically create a new 'turn point' at my current position. This completely mess up my waypoint list after serval times of slingloading/transporting back and forth, especially when it comes to more than 3 preplanned points. I won't be able to tell which point is which....not in a short time at least. Is there anyway I could avoid this (automatically creating new turnpoints everytime I menually switch from waypoints), or have I done something wrong? Many Thanks!
Tiger-II Posted January 4 Posted January 4 (edited) It's a buggy mess, and only half-implemented at that (it is WIP, after all). A TP is purely for the nav system to allow the aircraft to fly a turn to then track direct to the selected waypoint. It is a special waypoint that should always be FROM point, not selectable, and deleted any time any other waypoint action is performed (e.g., overflying the next waypoint triggering the next waypoint to be sequenced). If you ever flew a decent Boeing in MSFS for example, it should operate the exact same way in this regard.

The JF-17 is not better than the F-16; it's different. It's how you fly that counts. "An average aircraft with a skilled pilot, will out-perform the superior aircraft with an average pilot."
