737 Pilot In Command

[Majormonty]

Hi all,

I've just this week purchased this add on and so far it looks great but I need help with a small problem.

When I am programming (or trying) the CDU I can only get so far.

I enter origin and destination,rwy etc no problem,but when it tells me to "enter the 3 digit identifiers for your next route fix" nothing seems to work.

What exactly goes in here? Waypoints?

I aslo have a message saying "database is out of date".Does this matter?

Ive tried downloading updates from www.feelthere.com but page is not accessible.

thanks.

the FMC works fine with an out-of-date AIRAC.



Ive tried downloading updates from www.feelthere.com (http://www.feelthere.com) but page is not accessible.

the AIRAC linked on feelThere's site is old (cycle 0610). this link remains for those person with 'first downloads'/CDs of the products using the 'feelThere common database'. feelThere stopped updating AIRACs when the public access to realworld information were taken off-line (now all data cost money which NAVIGRAPH licenses and then makes available, for a charge, on their site: http://www.navigraph.com/www/fmsdata.asp)

if you are still 'stuck' post in the feelThere forum linked above.
