    Latitude/Longidude type WPT is not accepted

    Hello,

    I am using PM`s Boeing type GC with CDU. It refueses to accept Latitude/Longitude type wayponts in the LEGs page.

    I enter it into s/p as specified in the FMC User`s Manual: N33309W115566
    It responds with "Waypoint is not in the database" when placing it into the route. It works with PBD and Course/Interseciton types correctly.

    Can somebody confirm it?

    Regards,
    Geza
