DIR Function issues
-
Recently did a flight from KOSH to CYYZ. Everything started fine, took off, got the plane pointed in the right direction, hit nav mode and then went direct to the first waypoint. That's where the issues started. Kept saying I was 10+NM off course... of a direct to. So I cancelled the Direct To and just let it pick up the planned path.
But then that's when the second issue popped up. Now it wouldn't automatically go to the next waypoint. For each waypoint on my Flight Plan, I had to go DIR and then cancel the DIR to get it to track the next leg at all.
I did try changing from auto to manual legs, that didn't work so changed back to Auto and it still wasn't working properly.
So I'll admit I had a bit of a sloppy setup for this flight, put in the flight plan, forgot to update the VLF position until I was in the air but I'm not sure if that has any effect on this.
