I'm new to the Avidyne world and have a question about the destination airport in the flight plan. I have an activated flight plan, but the destination always defaults to a small GA airport in NY in the chart view. The Simulator and the IFD 100 seem to work as advertisedl. I have the destination set for F41 (Ennis, Texas). Thanks!

Select the PASTE button, that will prefill with the destination.

Thanks for the info. Unfortunately the airport info will not stay "pasted". As soon as I leave the page and return the system reverts to the previous airport.

So you enter a flight plan from, say, KDAL to F41. You go to the chart page and enter F41, then go back to FMS. When you go back to Charts, you get something in NY?

In order to diagnose, we'll need exact, detailed steps that you are taking to induce the problem.

Thanks Steve. Unfortunately I will be away from my airplane for the next 10 days. I will duplicate the problem and post again. Thank you.
