It all depends on the procedure itself... If it's valid for all runways (i.e the Miami 9 DP) it should display right away. In case the procedure is exclusive for a runway you'll need to select the runway first (i.e choose rwy17 for NAVAR2 or 35 for RIBLA2 when arriving into SCEL from the East)

The PMDG 737 is the same way. At some fields, it won't show you any choices for STARs until you choose a runway. Same with DPs, I believe.

 

 

it depends how that SID and STAR were made for the database. If some of the SIDs and STARs were made stricly to be used for a runway, then that would be correct, if not, then you can select the SID and/or STAR right away, and later select a runway.

Right, obviously it only applies to STARs and DPs that are runway specific.

Well, I control at Las Vegas APP for the most part and use ATISmaker. Like Marc said above, most APP controllers out in ZLA don't use it due to most working SOCAL and therefore work many airports under that umbrella. I however have only one major airport and as such, when I control I put the RWY is use via ATISmaker.
