Hey guys, got a few questions on Flight Planing. Now, I have been looking around for a nice and quick route to fly with a 757 and I have found this one on flight aware. Delta Airlines from KATL to KMIA.

KATL THRSR5 LUCKK SZW SSCOT1 KMIA


Flight Aware translates this too.........
     
KATL HRSHL ESFOR ESTWU ESTUS THRSR LUCKK SZW HEVVN LEGGT PLYER SEATE JUULI BAARY CYY DEEDS SSCOT RUBOE WALIP LECIT KMIA


I know that everything before THRSR is part of the THRSR5 SID so I excluded all those waypoints from the plan making my first waypoint LUCKK.

Now I am a bit confused at how the STAR works. The pilot in this case used the SSCOT STAR, so I removed everything back to BAARY. Now my flightplan consisted of....

LUCKK SZW HEVVN LEGGT PLYER SEATE JUULI BAARY


I took off, flew the THRSR departure and proceeded to climb. After an about an hour I noticed I was approaching BAARY. Upon
