Amexsy Last Minute Changes

There are several features to allow manipulation of FLPs when last minute changes are required. These are described in this section.

Delay (DLA)

If the user selects DLA (Delay) a new box will appear, and a new EOBT can be entered.

Cancel (CNL)

If the user selects CNL (Cancel) a box will appear prompting if the CNL message should be sent.
You have the possibility to change between the Non-ICAO Standard Message or the ICAO Standard message.
The Non-ICAO Standard is accepted only within IFPS airspace, whereas the ICAO Standard message is accepted everywhere.

You change by ticking the box: “Use ICAO formatting”.

A cancellation to the specific flight will be sent and when an acknowledge message is received from the NMOC the flight is removed from all lists in the Flight plan viewer.

The option “Use ICAO formatting” is also helpful in situations where a flight has been delayed previously by instance other than AMEXSY e.g. TOWER, Briefing Office or handling Agent.

Cancel and Refile

When this option is chosen you can move the ATC flight plan forward; this is done through the following window that appears. Enter the new EOBT and click OK.

Change Item 18 (CHG)

If you right click on a flight and choose “CHG (item 18)” you will have the ability to change items in item 18 “Other Info” in the ATC FPL e.g. overflight permits.

It will show you the item 18 of the last filed FPL or CHG message.

You can then change item 18 by adding or editing information. If you right click in the box you will see all approved sub-field indicators which you can use in item 18 (as shown below).

Resend FPL

You can right click and choose “Resend FPL”. It gives you the opportunity to send the FPL again to selected addresses by your choice and you will have the possibility to change “Item 18 – Other information”.

You will see a new window shown below, where the addresses and Item 18 can be altered before the FPL is sent.
