Once creating my flight plan using SimBrief and loading it into the A320 the flight show as a green dotted line, not solid green as it should. I have read that could mean I am in HDG mode and not NAV mode however I have tried everything and can’t seem to get it right. I am using a Honeycomb Bravo so I have both HDG/NAV switches on the throttle but they don’t seem to change anything. I am hoping someone can assist me in getting my issue resolved?
Thanks in advance!
Have you selected and inserted the departure (and arrival) and checked your route?
I always press it after selecting the flight director when i start taxiing and then it becomes a solid line.
I tried what you suggested and now I’m showing a solid yellow line?
The yellow line shows the selected sid, you just have to confirm the selection by pressing “insert” on the bottom right of the fmc.
Departure and arrival are not imported with simbrief, you’ll have to do the same for the star when the you’ll have the runway and approach to your destination given by the atc .
Ok I did that just still doesn’t show my flight plan as a solid green line.
Does your plane fly the route anyways? It could very well just be a finicky line draw, but underneath it may work just fine.
Switch the speed an heading buttons to “managed” so it shows — and the line will become solid
BTW if it makes any difference I am using the FBW A320.
I second what JoeJoe said
Do you also have initialized the data in the MCDU?
INit page: Cost index, Flight cruise, Weights,
Performance page : speeds, flaps
FCU: speed, heading in managed mode, altitude.
