Can anyone help me to a decent route finder? I tried several websites and programs, but in practically every route is a problem. No SID charts/SID not in the list of the FMC, one of the entries from the the route list is refused by the FMC as being not valid.


For example:

EHAM SID GRONY UN873 JUIST UP729 DOSUR P729 TALSA Z702 DEKIK N851 TRS STAR ESSA

In the SID list of the FMC is no SID from which the code is recognisable as corresponding to GRONY and I've been googling but I cant find any SID chart for GRONY either...

or:

EHAM SID ANDIK N873 GRONY UN873 ARS UY36 ELTOK ELTOK2J STAR ESSA

Where the FMC doesnt recognise ARS as a valid entry...

So, can anyone help me to recognize what goes wrong and fix it, or tell me where can I get a route and the corresponding charts that matches up with the FMC from PMDG737-8900NGX?

Go to the DEP/ARP page on the FMC.  It's a button on there. Then it should be on departtures automatically, selectth runway and SID, and the STAR and runway for the approach.  It shouldhave al,the info with that SID, so you don't have to put it In there manually.

I'm following the procedure from tutorial #1, so I select the SID and STAR from the lists in the DEP and ARR pages, but there's nothing in the list I can recognise as a SID for GRONY when taking off from Schiphol EHAM. Or when taken off from Eindhoven EHEH, almost all routes start with waypoint SONEB and I cant find anything that could correspond to that name in the SID list and also for both, I cant find any SID charts online or in several flightplan programs I tried.

It are waypoints along the route I enter manually in the VIA/TO route-page, also according to the procedure described in tutorial #1, but also there I find waypoints that arent recognized by the FMC, as ARS.
