FMC Alternate Airport Question

**rbbarker** · 12-23-2002, 04:11 PM

How would you handle this? Say you're flying KBOS to KCHS and right when you cross the NC/VA border you have an emergency and need to divert to an alternate airport. Let's say that we want to now land at KCLT. How do you reprogram the FMC from its current course of KCHS to KCLT? Thanks.

I know it's the Holidays and everyone's busy, but I need to solve this issue before I start my around the world adventure. I hope someone can help soon. Thanks!

I could be totaly wrong here but i think that you would have to change the destination airport in the fmc... KBOS-KCHS change KCHS to KCLT and i think you might have to make some more changes inthe fmc.I think that is how it is done MABEY..
