I’m trying to practice approaches on either avionics g1000/530. Is it possible to select an approach without adding a transition and having to fly way out there to get the sequence to load correctly? I also noticed that you cannot Direct To any point on that approach to simulate vectors. Am I doing something wrong or is the sim not yet configured to handle this. thank you
There is a way around it. A leg on final approach has to be activated. I made a video a few months ago showing how to do it. The same method applies for the 530 but I do not have a video for that one.

You cannot activate a leg on a loaded approach like this on the 530. It is greyed out and you cannot activate it. Any ideas on why?
old post but the bug remains the same. You cannot select an approach on the GNS 530/430 without it forcing you to activate a transition as well. I don’t believe this is accurate in the real world. I would like to simply have a vectors to approach without a named transition.
Yes that’s an old post and WT brought many changes to their systems. I have the Carenado M20R with the GNS530. I have tested 2 airports (LFAT/LFRN) and I can see a “Vectors” option in the Transition page. Is that what OP reported missing when post was created ? or can you explain in more details what is missing and if possible provide a screenshot where info/option is missing if any ?
