Is this route applicable for /W?

Post by metalmike »

I cannot remember the route I originally filed (I believe it was something along the lines of GAPP7 SFO V25 OSI and something something), but it was one navigable via VOR-VOR and airways, as I filed /W (flying the 737-200). I was given a full route amendment - GAPP7 PORTE WAGES CZQ:

I'm just curious as to how I am supposed to navigate direct to WAGES without any GPS or IRU equipment? My altitude filed was 17,000 if that matters at all.

Remind the controller that /W means RVSM with no GPS/IRU and request another route.
