thedatabasegiventheentrywaypoint,theairwayidentierandtheexitwaypoint.Thisreloadsthesequenceof
waypointsbetweentheentryandexitwaypoints(thesequencemaychangewhenthedatabaseisupdated).The
update of an airway can fail during this process. If that happens, the airway waypoints are changed to regular
(non-airway) flight plan waypoints, and an alert is displayed (see Miscellaneous Messages in Appendix A).
The following could cause the airway update to fail:
•Airwayidentier,entrywaypointorexitwaypointnotfoundinthenewdatabase.
