Post subject: | 'Too close together' warning |
How bad is this warning? Is it always going to spoil my flight if I just ignore it? For example here's my P3D fpl: EGLL BPK Q295 CLN L620 REDFA EHAM, nothing fancy. When I load the fpl in PF3 a window with 2 warnings pops up: following waypoints are too close: TOTRI and MATCH (2nm) BRAIN and DAGGA (5nm) Editing flight plans each time I fly in different directions is not that easy task under the hand, so do I really need to take the trouble? Are there 'light' close way points that can be just ignored and are there the 'bad' ones, that need to be removed? Thanks. |

As the manual says, it depends. Waypoints too close to the airport are a more serious problem than waypoints that are too close together. In almost all cases I try to avoid having waypoints closer to the airport than recommended. Waypoints too close together are often not a problem and may not need to be corrected. A lot depends on your individual setup, including system resources, waypoint change distance of your FMC, etc. Best advice is to experiment and see what works. |
