I received an "Error plotting route" warning before I even did an update. Therefor unable to download (I tried).
I have previously tested this route. It is part of the "USA capital cities" challenge. I tried two times - same result.
Please see attached file for details.

Theo, I have the route plot working on the same route. Take note of the airports in my pic. That is the only difference I see.

Silly question, is there a double space in the route?

Cheers!

The double space gets me every time! Especially when copying from SkyVector...

Thanks to all for your contributions - right up there to our excellent DVA standards.
I tried the simplest solution first. And the winner is : Luke Collin !! Yes, just a little double space
I don't believe it. I have NEVER done this before in all my DVA years. Well, only 5 years - I still consider myself a newbee.
Just a note to Kevin: interesting to see that your input produced different airport codes - they had K prefixes. Like you I also do not use K in the waypoints.
Just in case I do not enter the watercooler this week I wish you all Happy Holiday or as we say down-under "Merry Christmas".
