Yes, updated it that morning, but that was not the issue that we later discovered. Using the Collins FMS-3000, the approach was listed as VDMD, which you had to select and then select the runway to circle to after that selection. I don't know why they didn't just list it as VOR/DME-D. We had never done that type of approach with this FMS, so it was more of an FMS unfamiliarity issue, rather than an approach issue. We were all ready and prepared for the approach when we came back, but by that time they were using the ILS for 20L. At least we'll be prepared for next time!
Yeah, sometimes it's easy to forget how things used be done, and rely on the FMS to handle everything for you. That day it was crazy busy, we got an approach we weren't expecting with little warning, and it just wasn't the time to be reviewing the chart haphazardly while shooting an unfamiliar approach. We decided to request what we had already reviewed and knew how to input into the FMS. It was a learning experience, and if you take something away from it without an incident, that's a good day in my book.
