GBW Posted February 26, 2021 Share Posted February 26, 2021 I'm learning! I have programmed a route from Bristol international (UK) to Manchester. EGGD - EGCC I chose a departure from Bristol on runway 27. I am presented with BADI1X BCN1X EXMO1X Before choosing the runway, I have the following options;- BADI1X BCN1X BCN1Z EXMO1X EXMO1Z and WOTA1Z I believe BCN is Brecon but what is the significance of the suffix - 1X. All help gratefully received. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
il88pp Posted February 27, 2021 Share Posted February 27, 2021 They are SIDs. Predetermined departures. Look them up on a chart of bristol. Online. [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GBW Posted February 27, 2021 Author Share Posted February 27, 2021 Thanks for the response. I guess that the suffixes are just different routes to the same waypoints? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GBW Posted March 3, 2021 Author Share Posted March 3, 2021 No, they are each different routes points. I thought I understood! Routes between (e.g.) Brecon and Bristol are listed as BCN1X AND BCN1Z. Same origin, same destination. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
