Narrative:
During the route verification process it was noted that the SEA6 in the CDU (control display unit) data did not match the SEA6 in jeppfd-pro. The CDU reflects a simple vector whereas the jeppfd-pro depicts a heading to a radial intercept. It was decided that the best course of action was to utilize heading select and VOR/localizer in lieu of LNAV.
