Some flights are very long so I utilise the map view, then click on the aircraft to move it much further on.
Placing it as close to track as possible.
BUT I notice the magenta track is now white, not alive? Have tried flying directly over next way-point in the hope it will re-activate.
It doesn't. So I just continue with compass controlling heading.
Is there a way to re-activate that magenta track so that GPS is back in control ????
For FS9 but it should help.

Thanks radarman
Interesting items about ILS landings etc.
My main point still is.......when in cruise (after doing what I did in my original post re moving the a/c forward)
The Gps track is white (Not live?) I am still in cruise with 800nm to go. how do I reactivate GPS to track on autopilot as before. ??
