Flight Planning

Hi, When flying VFR what is supposed/expected to happen if I enter the wrong airspace, for instance B in real life (F16 will appear?) VATSIM (angry controller?) Pilot2ATC Regards, René

How do i get navaids i got it before but i had to redo windows so everything was lost [/url

Hi, I've been having a problem with PFPX for about ten days. When I click on the "Find Alternates" button nothing happens, no alternate airports appear. Before everything worked great. I tried uninstalling PFPX and reinstalling it again, but that didn't work. Could someone help me solve this please? Thank you.

I am learning the Fokker F28 in MSFS2020. Is there a way to select routes and SIDS and STARS which are not GPS based but solely NDB and/or VOR based? In Navigraph, or Little Navmap, or another source maybe? Regards, René

I’m a bit old fashioned in that I like to have some printed version of my flight plan, but Navigraph doesn’t offer this feature. Foreflight does however. Other than a modest increase in cost (I’m a home user), is there some capability specific to simulator usage vs actual flying that I would miss from Navigraph? I have only briefly experienced both. After being a real pilot 40 years ago, I’m trying to get back into it as a sim pilot this time around. The very long gap in experience perhaps explains my fondness of paper charts (and analog instruments).

Hi, I'm in the early stages of using Navigraph charts inside MSFS2020 but I would prefer to use it outside the sim on the main 32inch desk top (like the ALT + TAB to LNM). I have a 10inch tablet but I don't think that wouldn't do it justice. Thanks for any help Brian

Hallo imForum!

Kann mir jemand weiterhelfen.Danke im voraus LG Erich

Hello Im wondering if there is a simbrief profile for the concordde if anyone can help😞

Hi there fellow simmers! Im using FSX SE and have no idea how to get my AI aircraft to work. I dont really know how to compile flightplans. I remember the MRAI Installer where you got to select your aircraft for each space. Anyways, any help would be very appreciated. Thank You Kindly. Lee

Hello, I could restore database in Plan-G for MSFS2020 but it's now not anymore possible. Connection from MSFS 2020 to Plan-G is possible, as the little plane moves along the map. Connection from Plan-G to MSFS2020 is not possible, as the Database can not created. How can I solve that problem? With kind regards Wilhelm

I'm using Gtn 750 in Bell 412. Because of outdated airac cycle cannot get Autopilot to follow fpln Magenta line ?.

Hi I'm new to this site and are looking to download airport chats to use for flight simulator 2020 in specific looking for ILS landing info to program into the FMC. Much appreciate your help Andy

I am having a problem with Flight plans either with or without using LNM. I put in my flight details/start finish etc and I get a flight plan shown on the world map that looks correct. However, when I get into the aircraft the flight plan goes silly and has huge legs that do not make any sense at all and involve long distance "rambling" and do not follow the route shown on the world map.Can you help?

This used to be possible however I cannot remember how nor can I find How To? Any ideas? I am trying to put together a Flight Plan around the English Lake District in an Icon A5 amphibian aircraft and want to use a couple of the Lakes to land on as the Destination Airport of a specific Leg. Then I use BTI to export the Bush Trip to the Custom User location in MSFS 2020.

I have a flight plan from AYWW to AYMM. The only option is to select a runway for departure and so I am starting with all set for departure. How do I create a plan from parking off the runway in a cold and dark state when the runway in LNM does not show parking areas? Regards, Tony

I apologize if this is in the wrong place as I'm new to this forum, but I'm looking for guidance as to setting up a flight plan in the FMS for the current MSFS version of the Cessna Citation. I've watched several hours of videos and read many pages of forums, manuals, etc. across different sites but I keep plummeting to the ground at record speeds after engaging the autopilot. (I think) I understand the basics of navigating the various menus in the aircraft, I understand how to input/clear data, etc. and I can even get the autopilot to navigate laterally without any issues, but when I try to use VNAV things quickly start to go wrong. If anyone knows of an updated res…

I am looking for a flight planning application. I used SimBrief. But now they are owned by Navigraph, it is kind of pricey. The quality is great, but Pricey. I am using MSFS 2020 w/ PILOT2ATC. The NavData that comes with PILOT2ATC should be good for now. I believe I can save the MSFS flight plan and then load it into PILOT2ATC. SimBrief is great but I can’t justify the cost at this time. Thanks!

As many of you know once PFPX is installed it crashes if you don't enable a proper weather path. In fact, the one inside the program is no longer active and crashes PFPX. I could install ASP3D but, not using P3D anymore, I don't want to install it just to have a snapshot of the weather (current_weather.txt) and that's it. So I ask you if there is some very small free program that could download only the current_weather.txt to connect to PFPX. Is there anything? how do you get around the problem? thank you all in advance

When i do my flight plan I get an error that says my fuel is above the "block fuel" amount. How do I correct this?

Given a plane and a departure airport, is there a database of flight plans that can be downloaded or viewed in the internet? For example, a GA plane leaving KLAX?

Dear friends. I would appreciate your assistance regarding the in game planning/navigating tool. I am beginner in MSFS, so please understand my strange question. For expert colleagues it may sound ridiculous, but when I make my flight plan I get a straight route, and always have trouble with properly prepare myself in advance for landing (I would expect the landing route take in to account the curve you have made to descend slowly and prepare for touch down), basically with descending approach as the route does not show details regarding the final approach. How can I plan this route ahead? My question is which flight planner for MSFS 2020 that I can use in VR mode woul…

Hi everyone, I really can't figure out - the fuel quantity figure on the Progress page in the PMDG BBJ FMC includes the fuel in the AUX tanks or is that not calculated/included in this figure? If it is not, how do I know what distance does the AUX Fuel give me? Any helps would be appreciated.. Cheers!

I was using Simbrief but sometimes it gives wrong NOTAMS - for instance, currently there is a NOTAM for ESSA that RWY 08/26 is CLSD DUE WIP, which is clearly wrong since you can see aircrafts departing RWY 08 on FR24. I also had other wrong NOTAMS, I'm not sure whether it is related to the Data subscription (which I don't have). I found this on the ICAO website, is it the most accurate source or are there better ones? https://www.icao.int/safety/istars/pages/notams.aspx

I created a flight plan with navigraph Charts and Simbrief. I saved the flight plans and they are showing up where they are supposed to be. When I start MSFS I select other, I select load, I load the flight plan and it is showing on the World map. So far no problem. Now, when I enter the cockpit, turn on the GTN750, select Flight Plan, the flight plan is not loaded. Am I doing something wrong? Or how do I correct this to get it to load when I hit FLY? Thanks Walt

I am planning on doing a sim flight from EDDF-KSFO and i was wondering how i would enter the flight plan for the United flight 59 that happened today? Based on what i can see there is not alot of waypoints he hits on this trip any help and suggestions would be greatly appreciated Ian Snow
