A. There is no automatic way to incorporate STARs and DPs in the route. The flight planner calculates and displays the shortest distance between two points on either a direct route or an airways-based route. You can manually add waypoints (including user-defined waypoints) to the route using the drag and drop (rubber-band) feature. This will automatically insert the waypoints on the NavLog and Flight Plan. Click here to go to “How to setup your profile in RTFP” for a detailed explanation on how to setup user-defined waypoints.
