If you want us to fly over a fix, please tell us. There are certain ways to do that (either fmc-programming or basic skills)! Otherwise, the fmc would take it as a fly-by-waypoint
Do I understand you correctly, if I reclear you "..from Pam dct Arnem" that the aircraft will make Pam a fly-by-waypoint?? and therefore no need for the acft to track VIA that point?

I find this hard to believe.

I know that if there are 4 waypoint between Pam and Arnem that there will become fly-by, (probably made abeam) but my example was a simple reclearance from A - D missing B and C, but the aircraft turned 8 miles before A and missed A by at least 4 miles...
