There are 3 ways to construct a route :
Flight Plan Construction
1 : A company route
There exists a company route in the FMGS data base and it is known by name to the flight crew. The flight crew enter its name on the INIT A page in the boxed prompt for CO ROUTE
2 : A City Pair which brings up a company route
There exists a company route in the FMGS data base but it is not known by name to the flight crew. The flight crew enter a ICAO city pair in the INIT A page boxed prompt FROM/TO.
3 : No company route exits
There is no company route in the FMGS data base .
The data base company route(s) appear
When inserted, all the INIT A data is set fro the company route file
When No company route exits between ICAO city pair , the route page shows “NONE”.
The flight crew may construct a route using waypoints and airways in the Flight Plan page
