Narrative:

First officer flying kennedy 9 departure; breezy point climb with navigation; autoplt on using company departure plate. Noticed FMS database only built departure to canarsie VOR. Next point should have been rngrr intersection. However; it was not on commercial chart word text chart page. Noticed this later by comparing commercial chart X to commercial chart Y sids. First officer waited for positive swing of canarsie needle before manually intercepting canarsie 223 degree radial outbound to ensure station passage. With southern wind this caused us to be right of course once everything settled down. ATC told us to come left to heading 180 degrees. Noticed we were about 1.8 mi right of radial and 2 mi outbound from canarsie VOR. On frequency handoff from departure control to ZNY I was given a phone number to call on arrival. Immediately called on arrival; talked with a supervisor. I also filed a safety report. The supervisor emphasized the importance of adherence to csi 223 degree radial to avoid lga inbounds; no separation lost. I told him I would do a company safety report to make others aware of this potential problem. A company commercial chart change also submitted to recommend including the intersection in word text as the other commercial chart plate has. Doing this and remaining in navigation with autoplt on instead of manually trying to intercept a radial outbound should prevent future problems.

Title: A300 FLT CREW DEPARTING JFK ON THE KENNEDY DEP DISCOVERS FMS DATABASE AND THE COMMERCIAL CHART FAILED TO DISPLAY THE LEG FROM CRI TO RNGRR INTXN. REVERSION TO MANUAL VOR DISPLAYS RESULTS IN MODEST TRACK DEV.

Narrative: FO FLYING KENNEDY 9 DEP; BREEZY POINT CLB WITH NAV; AUTOPLT ON USING COMPANY DEP PLATE. NOTICED FMS DATABASE ONLY BUILT DEP TO CANARSIE VOR. NEXT POINT SHOULD HAVE BEEN RNGRR INTXN. HOWEVER; IT WAS NOT ON COMMERCIAL CHART WORD TEXT CHART PAGE. NOTICED THIS LATER BY COMPARING COMMERCIAL CHART X TO COMMERCIAL CHART Y SIDS. FO WAITED FOR POSITIVE SWING OF CANARSIE NEEDLE BEFORE MANUALLY INTERCEPTING CANARSIE 223 DEG RADIAL OUTBOUND TO ENSURE STATION PASSAGE. WITH SOUTHERN WIND THIS CAUSED US TO BE RIGHT OF COURSE ONCE EVERYTHING SETTLED DOWN. ATC TOLD US TO COME L TO HDG 180 DEGS. NOTICED WE WERE ABOUT 1.8 MI R OF RADIAL AND 2 MI OUTBOUND FROM CANARSIE VOR. ON FREQ HDOF FROM DEP CTL TO ZNY I WAS GIVEN A PHONE NUMBER TO CALL ON ARR. IMMEDIATELY CALLED ON ARR; TALKED WITH A SUPVR. I ALSO FILED A SAFETY RPT. THE SUPVR EMPHASIZED THE IMPORTANCE OF ADHERENCE TO CSI 223 DEG RADIAL TO AVOID LGA INBOUNDS; NO SEPARATION LOST. I TOLD HIM I WOULD DO A COMPANY SAFETY RPT TO MAKE OTHERS AWARE OF THIS POTENTIAL PROB. A COMPANY COMMERCIAL CHART CHANGE ALSO SUBMITTED TO RECOMMEND INCLUDING THE INTXN IN WORD TEXT AS THE OTHER COMMERCIAL CHART PLATE HAS. DOING THIS AND REMAINING IN NAV WITH AUTOPLT ON INSTEAD OF MANUALLY TRYING TO INTERCEPT A RADIAL OUTBOUND SHOULD PREVENT FUTURE PROBS.
