If a published departure exists for the origin airport, a “Departure”
field will be displayed at the bottom of the row. Select the
departure field to display a dropdown containing available
departures for the origin airport.
TIPS AND TECHNIQUES
Vector Standard Instrument Departure (SID)
Vector (or Radar) SIDs are not likely to be part of the
list of available departures in the FMS dropdown.
This is due to the nature of the data encoding from
the supplier. They are however likely to be present
in the list of available charts for the departure field.
Vector (or Radar) SIDs are typically straight out
departures on assigned headings.
