Any idea what this extra line on the map is ?


Recommended Posts

So, this extra line on the map display ...  It doesn't appear at low zoom levels, it moves with me as I move along the track, I don't have a 2nd flight plan loaded, the alternate airport is the other side of the destination, and there's nothing odd going on in the flight plan as far as I can see.  It looks almost as though the display is trying to show two maps at once.  I'll fully accept it's pilot error, but I can't think what I might have done 😕  Can anyone who knows what they're doing with this tell me what I did ? :)

 

Cheers

Yep, that has happened in the past with VNAV approaches are selected at the destination.  I can't remember if it is an issue with the FMS or Navigraph if you use that.  I can tell you that the latest update to the CRJ plus the latest airac and sim navdata from Navigraph seems to have fixed this.  At least for me.

Thanks for that, I can stop wondering what I've done wrong :)  I've used that downloaded (simbrief) flight plan a few times and this pops up every time, I'll try entering the route manually and see if it does it then too.

Well I use the downloaded Simbrief profile and it does not appear with some combination of the latest CRJ update and the latest AIRAC/SIM Nav Data from Navigraph....

After importing it into the CRJ I chose the ELRU2A star into NZQN, with the RNAVZ approach to rwy 05, took out the discon and duplicate that this created, and there we have it.  If I choose the IBABU transition I get the extra line, if I choose VECTORS it works as intended. And the difference is that nice sweeping  curve that makes this into an RNP approach - which the number 1 pinned post in this forum says the CRJ is not equipped to do, weirdness will happen if you try.  Told you, pilot error :)
