Ruben Taillieu Posted June 12, 2015 Report Share Posted June 12, 2015 Hello I recently got the ERJ 135/145. When loading FMS it doesn't load my active flightplan and neither do i have my middle line when initialising position. When selecteing the GPS coordinats into FPL it doenst give an origin, meaning flying bij nav is impossible. Any solutions for this issue? Thanks!

scoobflight Posted June 12, 2015 Report Share Posted June 12, 2015 have you followed the manual's introduction flight and created the flightplan as outlined there? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
teeb57 Posted June 13, 2015 Report Share Posted June 13, 2015 Hey Ruben, Let me know if you find a fix for your problem. I've been having the exact same problem as you for the last 2 weeks. I've tried loading just as the manual says, tried uninstalling and reinstalling in FS2004 and I am now running this in FSX and I still have the same problem. I'm sorry I couldn't help more but I know how frustrating it is. Below I posted a screen shot but here I was finally able to put in the LAT LON for KSEA but still no departure airport on the next page.

scoobflight Posted June 13, 2015 Report Share Posted June 13, 2015 Are you using the 'steam' edition of FS? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
teeb57 Posted June 13, 2015 Report Share Posted June 13, 2015 I am not using steam. I see where feels here requires us to fave FSX sp2. Are you saying sp2 is not going to do it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scoobflight Posted June 13, 2015 Report Share Posted June 13, 2015 did you install FS sp1 and FS sp2? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
teeb57 Posted June 13, 2015 Report Share Posted June 13, 2015 Yes sp1 & sp2 are both installed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ruben Taillieu Posted June 14, 2015 Author Report Share Posted June 14, 2015 Are you using the 'steam' edition of FS? No steam. It's the pc version Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ruben Taillieu Posted June 14, 2015 Author Report Share Posted June 14, 2015 have you followed the manual's introduction flight and created the flightplan as outlined there? As far as i've checked and double checked it, yes. As soon as battery is on and checklist is running for FMS, and i push the first step, the middle line where the airport ICAO should be stays empty. When selecting the first or third line, the icao doesn't load either... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's quit ennoying when you have a multi-waypoint flightpan in mind where you can't use the NAV. Constantly switching headings is not that handy :/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
teeb57 Posted June 14, 2015 Report Share Posted June 14, 2015 No Ruben you're not the only one. I see where others have posted the same issue on other forums. What I'm starting to think is there may be no fix to this. With no FMS the plane is pretty much grounded. The only thing I can think of is something in our computers registry or settings has to be creating this problem. I've wasted a lot of good time trying to figure it out & have about given up. If I find anything that works I'll let you know Steve Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scoobflight Posted June 14, 2015 Report Share Posted June 14, 2015 Will the FMS recognize any airport or navigation IDs? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
teeb57 Posted June 14, 2015 Report Share Posted June 14, 2015 I began in seatle then moved the plane to Houston then Washington DC. The FMS doesn't recognize any of the 3 airports. FWIW, I began the sim with FS9 then tried FSX & now FSX steam, all with the same results. One other point, when I open the FMS > MENU > MISC MENU > flight config, there's a line that say "org/dest display off" I don't know if that means anything or not, but I can't change it. On the MFD when I select 'plan' then check the airport and navaid boxes, there are no airports or navaids showing on the display within 500 miles of my present position. I'm not sure the plane knows where its at. Steve Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scoobflight Posted June 15, 2015 Report Share Posted June 15, 2015 Reads like you may have simconnect issue or the MDAC error (MDAC is for WinXP). Try a.reinstall of simmconnect. If no help issuemay be MDAC. This is an issue with a faulty instal of the OS. Win7 and Win8 don't have MDAC, but a similar core function for reading databases. Do internet search for details. For both above also review - http://forum.simflight.com/topic/78023-erj-145-135-problem-with-fmc/?fromsearch=1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
teeb57 Posted June 17, 2015 Report Share Posted June 17, 2015 Thanks for all the info scoobflight. I appreciate you taking the time to get back to us. Just so I understand, you believe this is a problem with the way flightsim has installed? Thanks again for you help Steve Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scoobflight Posted June 17, 2015 Report Share Posted June 17, 2015 Steve: could be an FS issue related to simconnect. could be your OS has a bad install (the MDAC issue). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
teeb57 Posted June 20, 2015 Report Share Posted June 20, 2015 Hi Ruben, I finally got it to work. The problem is windows8 64 bit. I'm using it in windows7 64 bit & all is right with the world again Steve Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scoobflight Posted June 22, 2015 Report Share Posted June 22, 2015 correct ... some folks have issue with win8 and other do. welcome to one of many issues when IBM decided to outsource the OS for the PC back in the late 70s. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
