Help Loading The Fmc In 737pic... (fsx Addon) Options

[heyjoojoo]

Hello pilots:

I have Wilco's 737PIC addon for FSX. I have been trying to load the FMC using Mike Rays manual and running into problems. It seems that when I'm configuring the Takeoff Ref page, there is no 'Departure' SK key to press.

The magenta line for the route seems to end at the first waypoint. It doesn't continue to the destination airport. So, I'm not sure which direction to continue flying to the arrival airport. Maybe I'm doing something wrong but I've followed the manual to a T.

Does someone have a list of step by steps that I can use to help me load the CDU? I would like to load a flight, complete with departure and destination information.

1. Press the DEP / ARRIVE button on the CDU. You should then have a page called DEP/ARR Index, if that's the case then press LSK 1 L. Or it may go straight to Departures page. I can't renember.

2. Close any discontinuities by going to the legs page and selecting the fix, then upselecting it to the waypoint above it. For example, if PAE is your first waypoint and there is a discontinuity at KSEA. Click on KSEA then click on PAE.

3. If you have no idea what I'm saying.... try going to the PMDG ( www.precisionmanuals.com ) and downloading there free 747 manual. Read the FMC part... it's more or less exactly the same as in the 737.

4. I find FMCs really easy.... basically, fill out everything with boxes around it then enter route. Exec.
