Narrative:

As first officer, I copied clearance to cvg, which was 'as filed.' I relayed this to the captain and he programmed the FMS as I completed my other duties. We commenced our short taxi without my having an opportunity to review our route. During taxi, we were issued a change to our route and the cince 3 arrival. The captain was unfamiliar with airport and asked me to change FMS, as we taxied. Unfortunately, having not been able to review original flight plan, I mistakenly assumed that the cince 3 was already in the FMS. We had already reached the runway by this time without my having had a chance to complete any checklists. Being relatively new in the aircraft and new to FMS, I asked the captain to review the changes I had made to the FMS. He looked briefly and said it looked ok. I completed the checklists in somewhat of a hurry, and we departed. As we approached the cvg area, and I was able to see our route mapped on the FMS, it did not look right. It depicted a longer route to the airport than I would have expected, but having been given a last min rerte we weren't sure what to make of it. I voiced my concerns to the captain, but he wasn't sure if the routing was for traffic flow purposes. As we commenced a turn at rod towards shb, the controller asked us to which fix we were headed. We told him. He then asked us about our clearance, and I told the captain what we had been given. Again he relayed this to the controller. At this point they vectored us to intercept the cince 3, and we proceeded to our destination without incident. Undoubtedly, I made an error in programming the FMS, however, if I had been able to review our original route before departing the gate, I would have caught the change of arrival. Also, I feel the captain should have stopped taxiing the aircraft, particularly as he was unfamiliar, and properly reviewed the FMS as I had asked. Maybe then one of us would have realized the mistake.

Title: CL65 CONTINUES ON ERRONEOUSLY PROGRAMMED ARR TO CVG.

Narrative: AS FO, I COPIED CLRNC TO CVG, WHICH WAS 'AS FILED.' I RELAYED THIS TO THE CAPT AND HE PROGRAMMED THE FMS AS I COMPLETED MY OTHER DUTIES. WE COMMENCED OUR SHORT TAXI WITHOUT MY HAVING AN OPPORTUNITY TO REVIEW OUR RTE. DURING TAXI, WE WERE ISSUED A CHANGE TO OUR RTE AND THE CINCE 3 ARR. THE CAPT WAS UNFAMILIAR WITH ARPT AND ASKED ME TO CHANGE FMS, AS WE TAXIED. UNFORTUNATELY, HAVING NOT BEEN ABLE TO REVIEW ORIGINAL FLT PLAN, I MISTAKENLY ASSUMED THAT THE CINCE 3 WAS ALREADY IN THE FMS. WE HAD ALREADY REACHED THE RWY BY THIS TIME WITHOUT MY HAVING HAD A CHANCE TO COMPLETE ANY CHKLISTS. BEING RELATIVELY NEW IN THE ACFT AND NEW TO FMS, I ASKED THE CAPT TO REVIEW THE CHANGES I HAD MADE TO THE FMS. HE LOOKED BRIEFLY AND SAID IT LOOKED OK. I COMPLETED THE CHKLISTS IN SOMEWHAT OF A HURRY, AND WE DEPARTED. AS WE APCHED THE CVG AREA, AND I WAS ABLE TO SEE OUR RTE MAPPED ON THE FMS, IT DID NOT LOOK RIGHT. IT DEPICTED A LONGER RTE TO THE ARPT THAN I WOULD HAVE EXPECTED, BUT HAVING BEEN GIVEN A LAST MIN RERTE WE WEREN'T SURE WHAT TO MAKE OF IT. I VOICED MY CONCERNS TO THE CAPT, BUT HE WASN'T SURE IF THE ROUTING WAS FOR TFC FLOW PURPOSES. AS WE COMMENCED A TURN AT ROD TOWARDS SHB, THE CTLR ASKED US TO WHICH FIX WE WERE HEADED. WE TOLD HIM. HE THEN ASKED US ABOUT OUR CLRNC, AND I TOLD THE CAPT WHAT WE HAD BEEN GIVEN. AGAIN HE RELAYED THIS TO THE CTLR. AT THIS POINT THEY VECTORED US TO INTERCEPT THE CINCE 3, AND WE PROCEEDED TO OUR DEST WITHOUT INCIDENT. UNDOUBTEDLY, I MADE AN ERROR IN PROGRAMMING THE FMS, HOWEVER, IF I HAD BEEN ABLE TO REVIEW OUR ORIGINAL RTE BEFORE DEPARTING THE GATE, I WOULD HAVE CAUGHT THE CHANGE OF ARR. ALSO, I FEEL THE CAPT SHOULD HAVE STOPPED TAXIING THE ACFT, PARTICULARLY AS HE WAS UNFAMILIAR, AND PROPERLY REVIEWED THE FMS AS I HAD ASKED. MAYBE THEN ONE OF US WOULD HAVE REALIZED THE MISTAKE.
