I wonder if any G1000 users have had any issues importing SD flight plans.  Up until now it's worked perfectly but on a recent flight from Carcassonne to Cannes it said that it couldn't import the flight plan as there was an error and a map of Russia came up on the screen.

I suspect that there was a waypoint that was duplicated with one elsewhere in the world but I'm not sure as the G1000 seems to rename waypoints for some reason.

Anyway, does anyone know how you can sanity check the SD FP before trying to upload it to the G1000?

Thanks

If I had any clue what was happening or why, I would certainly chime in, but I don't. It'll be down to how the G1000 is loading the file.

Thanks for the response Tim. Can I ask, does SD rename the waypoints when you save it as a Garmin FPL or is the G1000 that names them when it imports them?

Many thanks
