Simplified flight planning - free for all major sims.

Featured Replies

I wanted to reach out and introduce Simple Flight Planner — a free, browser-based flight planning tool built specifically for the flight simulation community.

It supports MSFS 2020 & 2024, X-Plane 11 & 12, FSX, and Prepar3D, and is designed to make VFR and GA flight planning simple, visual, and enjoyable.

Here's a quick overview of what it offers:

✈️ 1,000+ aircraft with full performance profiles (speeds, fuel burn, service ceilings)
🗺️ 71,500+ real-world airports with runway data and elevation info
📍 11,000+ curated Points of Interest — including MSFS World Update landmarks
🌍 MSFS World Update POI database covering 150+ landmarks from WU1–WU20, City Updates & 40th Anniversary
🏔️ 100+ pre-built scenic route templates across 6 continents
 Built-in fuel and performance calculators (density altitude, TAS, takeoff/landing rolls)
📊 Terrain awareness with elevation profile charts
🖨️ Print your flight plan — with or without the map
📱 Long-press the map on mobile to drop custom waypoints
💾 Export to .PLN (MSFS/P3D/FSX) and .FMS (X-Plane)
🔗 Shareable flight plans — generate a unique link so anyone can view your route, stats, and map
🗂️ Multi-leg itineraries — group flights into journeys with cumulative distance and time tracking
📡 Live online networks — see VATSIM and IVAO pilots and ATC controllers on the map in real time
🔌 Works offline as an installable PWA — no account required

The tool is 100% free, with no ads, no login walls, and no premium tiers. It's a passion project built to give simmers a practical, no-nonsense planning experience.

Interesting. I will definitely check this out! I hope it has airframes that even Simbrief doesn't, like certain classic aircraft. Thanks for sharing.
