Jonathan Johnson Posted February 7, 2017 at 03:57 AM Posted February 7, 2017 at 03:57 AM On the Sunset3 Arrival, I noticed you are to cross FUZZY at 16,000. However, on my FMC's Sunst3 arrival, there is no FUZZY waypoint. Is there something wrong with my FMC? Or the way I'm setting it up? It literally skips all the waypoints before SUNST.. I have my route set up as follows (going from SFO to LAS): SSTIK3 NTELL Q162 ESSAA BTY SUNST3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Josh Glottmann Posted February 7, 2017 at 04:01 AM Posted February 7, 2017 at 04:01 AM It's worth a shot - try selecting runway 25L for arrival, make sure you selected the BTY transition also. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ernesto Alvarez 818262 Posted February 7, 2017 at 04:20 AM Posted February 7, 2017 at 04:20 AM make sure your navigation cycle is current also try typing in the waypoint in your legs page, see if it finds it. sometimes the data is missed when they add it to the cycles at navigraph. which is another reason you should always have the chart handy to verify whats in the FMC matches, if it doesnt, try adding that leg manually, if the waypoint exists, itll do it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jonathan Johnson Posted February 7, 2017 at 05:49 AM Author Posted February 7, 2017 at 05:49 AM Yeah I have a huge binder with all the airport information (including sids/stars/ils/aiport diagarmas) since I don't have a tablet to use. I'll try playing around with the FMC tomorrow with it to see what I can get done. I also just checked my AIRAC cycle which was definitely out of date . It was on 1613.... Don't know if that was why or not.. I also noticed that it does have the Fuzzy7 arrival.. didn't try it but I would [Mod - Happy Thoughts]ume that if it has that arrival it should have the Fuzzy waypoint? But yeah I'll definitely play around with it tomorrow.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bradley Grafelman Posted February 7, 2017 at 11:19 AM Posted February 7, 2017 at 11:19 AM I also just checked my AIRAC cycle which was definitely out of date . It was on 1613.... Don't know if that was why or not.. Nope - FUZZY has been there since well before any 2016 cycles. It literally skips all the waypoints before SUNST.. That sounds like you added the procedure without selecting the correct transition (i.e. BTY). If you just add the "SUNST3" arrival without the transition, the STAR would indeed begin at the SUNST waypoint - hence the "(SUNST.SUNST3)" notation on the chart.

Jonathan Johnson Posted February 8, 2017 at 05:22 AM Author Posted February 8, 2017 at 05:22 AM That's exactly what I did. I made sure to select the BTY transition this time, and all was well. I'm so used to flying in the Northeast US (mainly Pittsburgh, Boston, JFK) that I didn't have this one set up.. and failed at it . Much better this time though! Now ATC won't have to redirect me Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
