I don't know the cause but it's huge.

After installing, I downloaded the latest MakeRwys and rebuild PFE database (followed the vidoe tutorial) and this is what I got.

Don't think thats a problem with PFE,that's more likely to be a Flightplanner error?

Any FP's written to your FMC are done by your Flightplanner,what aircraft are you using and Flightplanner?

I use FSBuild to build my flightplan and I've used it for years without problems.
Actually I had a successful flight right before installing PFE.

After rebuild PFE database, I use proflight to convert my flightplan, could this be the cause?

So i'm assuming you have ran makerwys and rebuild the PFE database in that order...anything else you have done that you can think of that may have caused this??

So after that you selected the flight you want,converted it and then ran Proflight 2000.

Then select the flight for use in PFE...

I would suggest you follow the tutorial step by step and tell us at what point you have a problem and any error messages you may see.

Hi, actually I've tested again and again. After installing PFE, I didn't run/use it. Just leave it there and go into FS,choose iFly and the problem occurs.

Here is a video to make it clearer. I loaded the panel state before installing PFE which all the waypoints showed up fine. But then I selected the arrival runway+trans, it messed up.

I'm thinking of registry problem.
What key does PFE register to the window(regedit) when installing?

Worth a shot...try a different aircraft to see if Ifly is causing an issue somewhere along the line....

I think it only happens to iFly as I've just tested with PMDG 747. It's fine.
