Re: fms
You didn't provide any information regarding what you were doing at the time, fortunately I know exactly when and why that message shows up.
1 - If you attempt to enable VNAV Advisory on the PERF menu page on the non-coupled side and with no target altitude selected, you will see this message.
2 - If you attempt to send the V speeds to the PFD and the takeoff performance is not calculated (this requires all takeoff values be entered) OR your aircraft is no longer on the ground then you will see this message.
So, you have done either #1 or #2.

Re: XLS+ FMS Issue
This avionics does not create altitude entries for each leg. It is not that type of system. As stated, you can not compare with other aircraft. Even another aircraft with the Pro Line 21 will be unlikely to be exactly like this one. Each airframe has it's own unique version of the Pro Line 21.jordi1992 wrote: ↑Thu Nov 28, 2019 9:24 ami have read the manual about vnav its only not working when aim programming the fms all the legs of the flight plan stays empty
