So im still learning how to fly the a32nx as I just downloaded it a couple days ago, and while I was putting my flight plan into my MCDU, one of my waypoints just lead to somethinh, but it didnt have the DCT infront of it, so I tried entering it as a waypoint, didnt show up, tried entering it as an airway, still didn’t show up, can someone help me, below is a picture of my flight plan.
When you are flying over North Atlantic, there are Tracks (NATs) that you follow. NATT means NAT Tango, which is a line between JOOPY and XETBO, not an actual airway. So you just enter JOOPY and then XETBO, creating a direct waypoint to waypoint flight path.
This is probably the same with that North American route shown there like N261A. If you cannot enter that into the MCDU, just enter TUSKY and then JOOPY directly.
Unrelated: please plan your flights carefully. I don’t think A320NEO has the range to reach Paris from Philly flying at such low cruising altitude despite the tail wind.
