Questions about Flight Plans and GPS and Shortcuts

Featured Replies

How do you get to the maps to click on airports to get the runway frequencies and course for ILS approaches? How do you pull up a GPS like you could in FSX with Shift + 3? Surely the VFR map is not the only one, there is absolutely no detail on it. How do you create or open an IFR flight plan like you could in FSX? while in game? It seems I have to end the flight just to set a flight plan. Shift + 3 for GPS, Shift + 2 for the radio stack, and the whole FSX ALT menu are gone, I relied on those heavily while playing. Is it somewhere that you have to turn it on? Or have they actually removed all of these features? I thought this sim would have been just like FSX from a button stand point. Like Shift + / for speed brake arm, Period for brake, stuff like that. I feel like I am learning an entirely new game, hard to believe it is the same franchise :(.

it seems to have issues, I see the GPS, I see the Freq's but for the life of me can't load an approach on the fly.
