Sitting in the cockpit of the Seastar, I tried to enter the following flight plan into the Epic 2:
KSNS/31 > Dep CHLN3 > PRB > MQO > GLJ > GVO > ILS 07 via GVO > KSBA/07
PRB, MQO, GLJ & GVO are all active VOR here in CA.
Now, if the Epic 2 is too unfamiliar and befuddling, don’t try too hard to make sense of it.
My issue there was I entered my Origin and Destination airports, added PRB as the first waypoint. Typed in MQO and was only offered one choice, which I picked, and it was some place 6000+ miles to the west maybe in Asia?
So, then I deleted the rogue MQO, and entered GLJ and nothing appeared that I could select. The same with GVO.
I then gave that up and switched to the EFB.
I entered KSNS and KSBA as origin/destination and tried to add PRB and got these results all starting with “PR,” and scrolling the list didn’t reveal PRB, either:
Then I tired GLJ and got results for “G,”:
Then I tried GVO and got results for “GV,”:
Then I opened the web-based flight planner and built the flight plan there with 100% success. I saved it and switched back to the sim. I attempted to load the flight plan via the EFB and it got stuck on “Loading…” and never resolved.
I tried all the aforementioned EFB steps on both my PCs, and also on the World Map EFB with no change in behavior.
Again, total vanilla installs with only 2024 content, no Community folder content, one PC had a reinstall yesterday and both behave the same.
