A320n
Brief description of the issue:
Im pretty new to MSFS and its my first time trying to enter the Flightplan via the MCDU manually. I watched a Youtube-tutorial: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=snNf6Kkz540&list=PL3cb4SXaJw9HDfOwq3lD6qPscsnjz492N&index=6
and also worked me through the tutorial from FlyByWire:
Preparing the MCDU - FlyByWire Simulations Documentation
Before i wrote this entry, i also contacted two ATC´s and googled about 3-4 hours. I didn´t found any topic related to my problem directly and the ATC´s couldnt help me either.
But now to my problem:
In the default A320n in MSFS is it impossible for me to insert the F-PLN with the correct airways. Instead im only allowed to enter the waypoints.
The A320n (v2) and the A320n from FlyByWire seems to not have the problem and i couldnt explain to me why. With this aircraft there was no problem and it was the same as in the tutorials explained.
In the A320n it always says “Not in Database” when i try to enter the airways. I will provide screenshots with the steps i have done in the next section.
I can be sure that its not the outdated Airac from Simbrief, that is responsible for that issue. I asked a subscription member to give me a route with the newest cycle and it still didn´t worked.
I can imagine its a bug, otherwise i guess there would be reports about it, so maybe the categorie wont fit.
Provide Screenshot(s)/video(s) of the issue encountered:
First of all the route im planning to fly:
EDDH/33 IDEKO6G IDEKO N850 WRB WRB6H EDLP/24
I tried different routes but it wont worked with other either.
Now the step by step part:
-Obviously before i can enter something in the mcdu i need to pick a plane and so bring it from cold and dark to be able to access the mcdu.
-Short description:
Pick A320neo in the Worldmap, pick EDDH select Ramp5, Turn on Battery 1+2 + External Power.
Now the MCDU:
Init-Page:
From/To filled with EDDH/EDLP
Cost Index filled with 26
CRZ FL with FL230
F-PLN:
The Flight Plan now looks like this:
LSK1L-> select Departure->select RW33-> SID IDEK6G → press INSERT*
This is the F-PLN now, with more Waypoints above DH260
LSK4L(IDEKO)->LSK5R(AIRWAYS)->Type N850 bringing me to this:
Press LSK2L-> resulting in the error “Not in Database”
I also tried to first enter all waypoints and adding the airways later, which also didn´t worked.
Maybe im missing something, maybe its time to swap to the A320n (v2) :). Nevertheless it would be awesome to know the cause of this problem and maybe someone already encounterd it. I had this issue with the vanilla version of MSFS, expect installed vPilot. Now i installed FlyByWire to test it in there aircraft. There aren´t any other mods or stuff installed for MSFS.
