RNAV Approach without a STAR

[Juergen2]

Hi,

I am trying to practice RNAV approaches with the A310, but can't seem to program the approach in the MCDU.

E.g. I want to fly from LFBO to LFBO and try to select the RNAV approach for runway 32R and no STAR or VIA. I can select the approach, but there is NO INSERT available, so the approach does NOT show up in the FPLAN.

I have been programming a STAR and than just fly the pattern in HDG Mode, ignoring the STAR waypoints.

I am sure that's not the correct way???

Thanks

Hi Juergen, if you want an approach with no STAR, you need to select the approach and then NONE in the STAR list, this will give you the INSERT* prompt
