VPT procedures and database coding don't go together well. I would suggest that Jeppesen or Lido whoever codes the database for Honeywell have deliberately left that out to avoid crews trying to fly it using any reference to the FMS.


HDG and ALT modes are they way to go. Its an older style procedure and should be flown with more basic autopilot mode selections. Not everything can be RNAV based.
