fakeflyer737 24 Posted March 30, 2021 Share Posted March 30, 2021 I had a flight into Albany NY tonight on VATSIM. I didn't file a STAR and didn't put an approach in the FMS until they gave it too me. I noticed that without any kind of Constraint in the FMS (from a STAR or APP) the FMS did not calculate a TOD nor did it give me sort of VNAV info. Once I loaded an APP it calculated a TOD and VNAV did its thing. Isn't the plane suppose to calculate a TOD regardless of the whether or not I've loaded/edited/added a constraint? If it is suppose to do that than this is a bug. Regards Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It will need to have something in the FMS for the TOD to calculate I would expect. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know in 73s 320s etc even if you have no constraints, stars or appraoches in the box it will still calculate a vnav profile and give you a TOD.

Deputy Sheriffs Secondator 643 Posted March 30, 2021 Deputy Sheriffs Share Posted March 30, 2021 Did you have any discontinuities in the flight plan for example at the beginning of the STAR? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jerseytom 5 Posted March 31, 2021 Share Posted March 31, 2021 Wonder if this is related... Granted all of my testing was on v1.0.0.0 but I didn't see anything in the release notes speaking to this topic. Sure seems like something about how the constraints on the STAR come in, isn't correct. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
