Switching from HD mode to NAV multiple times question

[arb65912]

Gentlemen,I posted the same question in org forum but since the audience might be different here, I decided to ask in this forum.

 

Here is my problem.

 

I have FMS programmed for a SID departure. I have to take off using heading mode and follow ATC instructions which in many cases tell me to fly to 2nd or 3rd waypoint of my SID.

 

So I am flying for example to my 3rd waypoint  and get cleared to resume SID navigation.

 

When I try to hit NAV mode ( FMS is a navigation source of course), CRJ2 does not want to fly to that waypoint but is trying to turn to fly somewhere else, I believe it is the first waypoint in FMS.

 

How do I start flying in NAV mode my SID if I already passed couple of first waypoints entered in FMS?

 

Let's say during the flight I needed to again fly in HD mode and missed few waypoints , how do start flying NAV mode again from a particular waypoint?

 

Thank you. Cheers, AJ

Hi Aj, same answer as Philip gave you in the other place

 

 

Go to the dir intc page and create a direct to the next waypoint.

Please avoid posting the same question at multiple places in the future.

Thank you Cessna729, I knew I will hear from you.

 

Philipp, sorry about posting in two places but since there is different audience in these two places I was hoping that I can get the answer faster and posting in two different websites is not a cross posting.

 

Since, you answer in both places, I see a reason not to post twice.

 

Thank you and sorry again.

 

Cheers, AJ

 

BTW, worked as a charm.
